Columbia Valley
2016 Artist Series - Lion Label
The 2016 vintage will be remembered as the ‘longest calendar vintage on record’ since we were harvesting grapes for three-solid months. This allowed for some impressive hang time and resulted in a very ripe and rich wine with beautifully supple, elegant tannins.
