Garagiste – national fine wine retailer:

Dear Friends,

2003 Pedestal

Many will argue that this is the best wine ever made in Washington State, better than the early vintages of Leonetti, better than the glory days of Quilceda Creek pre-1995. It would not surprise me in the least if this ends up as the highest rated wine ever to emerge from this state.

When Michel Rolland set out to make a Petrus-like wine in Washington State he didn’t leave many stones unturned. The result is the Pedestal which mimics a Pomerol in its Merlot dominance but has the intensity and ripeness that only the new world can provide. There is a tremendous amount of buzz surrounding this wine and it may actually be justified. It is painfully difficult to get but you will hear a lot about this debut release in the coming months, especially because it is a 2003 - considered to be the perfect growing season for this wine. If you like to discover the next Harlan before it becomes $250/bottle, now is your chance.

THIS WINE IS RIDICULOUSLY LIMITED! MOST RETAILERS ARE ONLY GETTING A FEW BOTTLES.
