The Untold Story
Betz Family (founded by Master of Wine Bob Betz) makes Untold Story from some of the most famous vineyards in Washington, showcasing the world-class character of the state’s Cabernet Sauvignon. Since its initial release supporting local charities during the pandemic, it’s been a call to action: be bold and courageous in pursuing your dreams, especially when it’s risky. Push the envelope and never give up. Choose camaraderie and community in the face of adversity. No one else sees the world like you, so no one else can tell your story. It’s time to hear you roar.
The Untold Story is deeply colored, with a dark purple core fading out to a bright magenta rim. The color is reflective of the aromatics: smoky black fruits, blueberries, blackberries, dark plums and cassis swirl about, adding incense and graphite alongside crushed herbs as it gets air. The palate is layered with a plush texture that perfectly balances fresh acidity and fine tannins leading to a lengthy finish that carries a delightful mix of bright rosemary, fresh berries and cracked spice.
