A visionary wine showcasing three varieties that are stellar in our growing region, but not traditionally blended together. This unique combination provides a beautiful marriage of structure, fruit and complexity that represents the pinnacle of Washington state grape growing and winemaking.

This wine highlights the broad range of wine that can be made with Syrah. These Syrah (90%) grapes were co-fermented with Viognier (10%) in the style of Côte-Rôtie in Northern Rhône region of France. The Viognier brings a delicate character to the Syrah and together they create a wine with notes of orange blossom, raspberry brambles and red currants.

Looking for the fresher, more complex wines, I found myself turning to our Canoe Ridge Estate vineyard. At 77% it is the largest this vineyard has ever been in the Artist Series; the site is maturing before our eyes, making the perfect combination of density and restraint. 13% from Dean Canyon Vineyard, is blended with Malbec and Cabernet Sauvignon from Lawrence Vineyard (10%). This fruit brings color, weight and a touch of herb notes. This 25th anniversary vintage of Artist Series is going to be very special. Enjoy!

The wine exudes mandarin orange and sweet lime aromas and flavors with subtle mineral notes. Mouth-watering acidity is beautifully balanced by flavorful Washington Riesling fruit. Beautiful bright fruit with crisp acidity and enhanced minerality.

Cold Creek Vineyard's 40-year-old vines deliver a big, concentrated Merlot. This wine delivers rich Washington black fruit flavors with layers of complexity. An intense Merlot with great ageability, the 2011 vintage displays deep color and rich varietal flavors from one of Washington State's most renowned vineyards.

The 2011 vintage has aromas and flavors of white peach, grapefruit and sweet lime with subtle mineral notes—mouth-watering acidity is balanced by flavorful Washington fruit. After over a decade we have found our Eroica style: beautiful bright fruit with crisp acidity and enhanced minerality.

We crafted this Red Mountain Cab to highlight the ripe fruit characteristics and intense aromatics and focused tannins reflective of this very hot and dry region. Our wine offers aromas and flavors of black cherry, cardamom spice and dark chocolate with an elegant structure and refined tannins.

The 2018 vintage gave us a perfect combination of heat for ripening in the summer and a gradual cool down during harvest that allowed proper ripeness in the ideal timeframe. This year's blend is a special combination of Canoe Ridge Estate (39%), Cold Creek (26%), Kelly (18%), and Dineen (17%) Vineyards. The combination of warmer and cooler sites is the exact expression I look for in the Artist Series. The cooler sites provide dark cherry fruit, a touch of herbs and delicate harmony. The warmer sites give ballast and depth to add concentration and aging potential. This wine plays the perfect role of 'Old World' styling with "New World' structure.
