We’re opening the Goose Ridge library for one final release of Cougar VIII, the eighth wine in the Cougar Collectors’ Series, created in partnership with the WSU Alumni Association. With only 20 cases remaining, this is your last chance to add this limited-edition red blend to your collection.
The release begins September 11th at all three Goose Ridge tasting rooms and online. Once it’s gone, Cougar VIII will not return.
Whether the Cougs are grinding it out on the field or you’re cheering from the couch, raise a glass of Cougar VIII to keep spirits high through Apple Cup and beyond.
🍇 Cougar VIII Tasting Notes
This red blend bursts with expressive red fruit aromas—cherry, plum, and raspberry—layered with toasty notes of cocoa, vanilla, coconut, and a touch of crème anglaise. The palate is full and fresh, with juicy cherries and plums at the core, lively spice at mid-palate, and a long, elegant finish of wild berries and subtle minerality.
True, Cougar VIII is a collectible wine perfect for milestones and memories to come—but there’s no time like the present to pop a cork and celebrate.
GO COUGS! 🐾🍷
