Chateau Ste. Michelle, Washington’s Founding Winery, has released this 2017 Collector’s Edition Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon to commemorate the Seattle Kraken’s Inaugural Season and the beginning of our partnership as the Official Wine of the Seattle Kraken. The 2017 vintage is a nod to Seattle’s first hockey team, the Metropolitans^TM who won their first championship in 1917.

Our winemakers carefully harvested fruit from the prestigious Canoe Ridge Estate, a certified sustainable vineyard renowned for its elegant yet complex style. This wine represents the 'Pinnacle of the Vintage' and showcases both strength and finesse; a perfect representation of the distinctive spirit of Washington wines and the Seattle Kraken^TM.

Perfect to be cellared and aged, this limited production wine is a dedication from our Washington winemakers to passionate Seattle hockey fans as we enter a new era in the quest for the next title.

From the smallest American Viticultural Area in size, Red Mountain wines are anything but diminutive. The wine is crafted to showcase the ripe fruit characteristics, incredible aromatics and concentrated tannins that reflect Washington state’s warmest growing region.

Discover Mimi, a sophisticated Cab sourced from Washington’s Horse Heaven Hills. Mimi captures the bright fruit and intricate spice and polished finish for which the Horse Heaven Hills is renowned..

The 2018 vintage provided an immaculate backdrop of warm summer sun and cool fall nights. Combine that with hand crafted artistry and extreme attention to detail, and you have the perfect example of what makes Washington State and Chateau Ste. Michelle truly special.

The Block 9 Cabernet is an homage to blocks grown by some of our oldest vineyard partners. These mature vines create an elegant, structured wine with old-vine intensity. Deep raspberry and pomegranate flavors matched with subtle French oak leaves a silky texture and finessed finish. If only we all aged so gracefully!

Grab your full-length robe, a slice of red velvet cake, and settle into your velour couch with this bottle. Fully decadent yet structured, this wine beams of rich oak, sweet berry flavors, and silky-smooth tannins. We all deserve a little luxury in our lives.

Making our first organic wine at Chateau Ste Michelle was an exciting and nerve-wracking experience for the whole winemaking team. It is a commitment that requires the attention of every single person in the winery to ensure the organic wine is kept wholly separate. All equipment must be specially cleaned before use and all safety nets to ensure wine quality are removed. It is a risky business where many things can go wrong, and we are all very proud of the result of all our efforts. Our organic wine was blissfully unaware of the stress and effort surrounding its upbringing and made its way calmly into the bottle with all its raw and unadorned beauty intact.

Of course, the first requirement is organic grapes. Our grape-growing partner faced the same challenges of isolating the grapes from all other farming operations, and the removal of safety nets to protect the grapes from disease and pests. We are very grateful to have such capable partners in our efforts to create a wine that highlights our values of sustaining the land, the wildlife around it, our community, and our wine region.

Complexity was my goal for this vintage. I blended Cabernets from multiple blocks of four different vineyards spread throughout the AVA to create layers of chocolaty cherry and boysenberry fruit with intricate spices that evolve in your glass, while also staying true to the expansive yet smooth Horse Heaven Hills palate.

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.
