Grapes sourced for this elegant dry-style Gewurtztraminer are from vineyards in the cooler Yakima Valley. Aromas of pink grapefruit, linden and ginger linger in the glass. The wine was primarily fermented in neutral oak for 5 months to offer a luscious velvety palate with hints of coriander and clove.

Capturing the character of Roussanne can be difficult. It is a delicate, difficult variety to grow and ripen, so sometimes it is better to simply embrace the chaos and let Mother Nature take over. The result is a wine of citrus and lime, with a creamy palate.

This lovely Viognier from the cooler climate of the Yakima Valley is mainly fermented in stainless to show off lively floral aromas, juicy tropical tones and hints of stone fruit. The barrel portion of the blend is naturally fermented 5 months in neutral oak which lends a rich complexity on the finish.

The best vintages produce complex wines and 2018 was exceptional-especially for Rhone-style varieties. The 2018 Austral is fresh and wild with fascinating notes of green peppercorns, rhubarb and raspberry tea. The mid-palate is broad with ample ripe fruit. Sweet spice and currant notes extend the finish.

This Syrah is crafted to show a different side of the varietal. A lighter, delicate side – brimming with acidity, minerality and vibrancy. Strawberry flowers, fresh cherries and Chantilly cream. I hope you enjoy this seamless, but focused style of my favorite grape variety.

Our 2018 Block Nine Merlot plays with a chip on its shoulder! It’s a perfect example of why Merlot from Washington State is so distinctively delicious! The palate is dense and richly textured due to signature mouth-filling tannins. Alluring layers of sweet cherry compote and mocha round out the palate.

Petit Verdot is a tiny grape, characterized by its focused color and tannins. Picked toward the end of harvest, the wine aged in barrels for 18 months. Give it some time to develop and reveal its intense structure and intricate layers of violets, anise, cacao and minerality. Cheers!

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.

The best vintages often produce wines which can only be described in seemingly contradictory language. Our 2018 Mourvèdre is rounded and approachable yet it is densely layered with structure. The palate is lush and ripe yet there is freshness and great complexity.

The fates aligned for the 2018 vintage and Indian Wells Vineyard Syrah. Growing conditions and fermentation went exactly as planned to create a wine that perfectly represents the rare combination of vibrancy, delicacy, and luscious fruitiness produced by only this vineyard and this vintage.

This Cabernet Franc opens with aromas of blueberry and graham cracker with blackberry and juniper on the palate and finishes with soft, velvety tannins. Enjoy the complex offerings of this unique varietal.

Surrounded by a moat of hops, apples, and cherries, the vineyards of Snipes Mountain stand up amongst the rest of the landscape. Select rows from an exposed ridge were hand-picked and co-fermented with Viognier to produce a lifted, jammy wine with velvet tannins and a rich finish.

The 2017 Malbec was crafted from vineyards including Indian Wells (48%), Canoe Ridge Estate (34%) and Lawrence Vineyards (18%). This year’s Malbecs are on the pure, almost elegant side. Sublime flavors of black cherry and spice intertwine with a delicate, pure fruit finish.

Decadent flavors of boysenberry pie with chocolate notes show off the deep, dark yet complex flavors of this variety. This year’s version is a great blend of Indian Wells Vineyard with our own sites of Canoe Ridge Estate and Cold Creek.

One of the top 10 most planted grape varietals in the world, Grenache is an exciting varietal to work with. This 100% Grenache showcases aromas of strawberry, raspberry and spice. The silky tannins and dark fruit lend a generous roundness to the wine, leading to a soft, supple finish.

Walla Walla Red is a blend of Syrah, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon with a touch of Tempranillo and Viognier. Aged in 41% new French oak, this supple wine carries notes of blackberry, spice, anise and clove seamlessly throughout the palate. The silky texture and delicate finish showcase the unique terroir of Walla Walla. Enjoy!

Boreal reflects elegance and structure. This Syrah was co-fermented with 3% Viognier, sourced from Archie Den Hoed Vineyards (54%) Canoe Ridge Estate Vineyard (32%) and Anna Marie Vineyard (14%). Specific to cooler sites, this wine showcases lifted floral notes, vibrant red fruits and delicate tannins.

The 2018 Cold Creek Red Blend showcases a delicious and fascinating spice notes. The palate opens with sweetness and density. Balance is maintained by ultrafine texture which draws out the fruit-driven finish. A slight dusting of cocoa caps off this non-traditional expression of Cold Creek Vineyard.
