Focusing on my favorite Cabernet blocks, I was able to create balanced flavors and aromas of bright red fruit and decadent dark cherry pie that capture all that the Horse Heaven Hills has to offer. Combine that with distinctive refined, powdery tannins and a long smooth finish, and you have Cabernet excellence.

This is one of my favorite wines to create. This Horse Heaven Hills AVA and Cabernet Sauvignon are a flawless match. The heat of the day brings out vibrant fruit characteristics, cool nights unsure extensive complexity through long ripening, and sandy, powdery soils lead to a unique combination of weight and silky smoothness.

Syrah might be my favorite red variety – it proudly trumpets its terroir, and also responds to any technique orchestrated by the winemaker. I chose three cool Yakima Valley vineyards that retain acidity and fresh red fruit, and treated each with Viognier co-fermentation or whole cluster additions.

Cold Creek and Heart of the Hill. Two historic, powerhouse vineyards; one striking wine. This blend showcases the best of both sites. The result is a decadent yet balanced wine, packed with nuances of cardamom and anise, blueberry crème, and toasted dark chocolate. This wine will be memorable for years to come.

Warm boysenberry, raspberry and black cherry mingle with sweet smoky tobacco, delicately layered with spice, savory herbs and a hint of cocoa. Velvety and rich, this Rhone-inspired blend weaves my favorite vineyards together in a seamless tapestry spreading across the Yakima Valley.

In this beautifully sculpted 2018 vintage, we have a fantastic marriage of varietal, site and year. The raciness of the varietal comingles with the weight and depth of the vintage. The wine starts with wonderful blackberry and dark chocolate flavors and finishes with a touch of baking spice and vanilla.

Capturing the breathtaking beauty and comforting warmth of our Canoe Ridge Estate vineyard in a red blend is a task any winemaker would gladly undertake. Many varieties thrive on Canoe Ridge and this year I found the perfect combination of Merlot, Malbec, Cabernet and Syrah.

This grape is typically blended with other Bordeaux style varietals and contributes structure, dark color and weight to a wine. On its own, the purity of fruit presents hints of tangy blackberry with herbal notes of anise and black tea.

Hooray, for another Gamay! We got our hands on one of the few Washington Gamay plantings from Carousel Vineyard. This wine saw carbonic fermentation in a concrete pyramid and was blended with some whole cluster stainless steel fermented Gamay lending flavors of red fruit and cinnamon.

Much of the fruit for our Block 9 Merlot is sourced from vineyards with particularly course, sandy soils. These conditions are seemingly lifeless and inhospitable, yet produce a wine with dark, sinewy layers of flavor and concentrated fruit. Light pepper notes provide a top-end flourish to accompany the long finish.

Bright brambly raspberry and blackberry aromas leap out of the glass followed by candied orange peel, delicate allspice and cedar, and a kiss of vanilla. The flavors are bright and vibrant with juicy ripe strawberries and citrus notes. A silky smooth entry and gives way to a pleasing soft finish.

This flavorful red wine is a fresh take on a classic Rhone-style blend. Bright brambly raspberry and blackberry aromas leap out of the glass followed by candied orange peel, delicate allspice and cedar, and a kiss of vanilla. The flavors are bright and vibrant with juicy ripe strawberries and citrus notes.

Brisk fall days are just better with this wine’s crisp refreshing finish. This inaugural release is a tribute to that special time of year, the harvest season and all things fall! Cozy up with aromas of tangerine and distinctive allspice. Bring on sweater season and layer up with honeydew melon and lychee fruit.

My Old World style vineyard is a natural for beautifully sculpted, complex red blends. This one was crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon (47%), Merlot (23%), Syrah (14%), Malbec (14%) and Cabernet Franc (2%). Five varietals from one Estate vineyard make for a harmonic statement that I enjoy crafting every year.

This is a lighter, fresher style of Muscat Canelli than we have made in years past. The wine still has the beautiful tropical fruit and floral notes that are characteristic to this variety but the wine is drier and much more food friendly. Crack open a bottle for any occasion!

The perfect wine for your getaway. Expressing with fruit forward melon and peach but the richness gives it versatility that surpasses its peers. Pair with sunshine on the lake or flurries of snow on your favorite mountain.

Viognier is one of my favorite varietals to work with. This aromatic grape lends notes of citrus blossom, mandarin, honey and graham cracker. Fermented in neutral oak, you’ll find the perfect balance of fruit, texture and weight on the palate.

Delicate and delectable, this wine is remarkably elegant. Pomegranate aromas with forest moss undertones are chased by vibrant acidity. A tip-toe of gentle, seamless tannins keeps this wine fresh to the last drop.
