As Cellarmaster I get to work with incredibly talented winemakers, but I think I’ve outdone them this year with the Aligoté. Fermented in stainless to keep the wine fresh and barrels to add some weight, enjoy hints of lime and a silky minerality that is balanced with bright acidity in this delicious dry wine.

A majority of this wine was fermented in one of our concrete tanks which adds depth & texture to this racy, citrus flavored wine. The wine has a natural minerality making this an excellent food wine. Impress all your guests by serving a wine with an umlaut (two dots) in the name!

This lovely Viognier from the cooler climate of the Yakima Valley is mainly fermented naturally in neutral oak barrels to show off the rich spicy complexity on the palate. Floral aromas and juicy tropical notes complete this luscious wine.

This dry style of Gewürztraminer presents the celebrated spicy ginger and clove aromatics of a classic Gewürztraminer mixed with hints of rose, lychee and pink grapefruit.

This Marsanne fruit got split this year into a tank and barrel ferment. It went to barrel without yeast – wild– and it delivered. It has a rich, viscous palate, while still retaining fruit. The barrel portion was then blended with a bit of the tank ferment which adds verse and a bright fruit backbone.

The best part of the Limited Release program is the freedom to experiment! Instead of aging our 2018 Cinsaut in multiple small barrels, I decided to put about half into one giant oak tank – and I love the result! The delicate red fruit is pure and sweet with an added boost of freshness.

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.

I get excited when the Roussanne comes into the winery because I can have some fun! This year, the wine saw stainless steel and concrete tanks to play up the variety's natural brightness. That verve paired with floral aromas and rich palate weight is also great for aging, if you can wait! Enjoy!

These 40-year-old vines produced an elegant and concentrated wine that will capture your delights and amuse your senses. Stone fruit and white Flowers will dance across your tongue electrified with bright acidity and a long smooth finish. I dare you not to smile!

Grapes sourced for this elegant, complex, dry-style Gewürztraminer are from vineyards in the cooler Yakima Valley. Aromas of pink grapefruit, minerality and ginger linger in the glass. The wine was fermented in neutral oak which offers a velvety palate with hints of dried herb and coriander.

Need a vacation? One sip of Muscat and you will be transported to the tropical island of your choice to enjoy the ripe mango, apricot, and jasmine aromas in this wine. It was fermented in tank to highlight the fruity and floral nature of the grape. Sit back, relax, and enjoy this tropical paradise in a glass.

A blend inspired by the wines of Austria, with a distinctive Washington flair. Pinot Blanc lends delicate citrus notes, Grüner Veltliner adds crisp granny smith apple, while Riesling rounds out the palate with juicy peach. Fermented in stainless steel to showcase fresh fruit character, depth and balance.

Inspired by a Northern Italian wine blend, I was intrigued by their combination of Barbera and Syrah; Barbera for its high-toned cherry notes and brisk acidity and Syrah for its deep jamminess and sweet finish. Our Washington state version has this kind of wonderful point/counterpoint combination.

This elegant expression of Chardonnay was fermented in concrete and stainless tanks producing a bright and fruit forward wine. Peachy aromas greet you on the nose and hints of wet stone jump out of the glass. Enjoy this scrumptious food friendly wine in the sun with some yummy sushi.

Considered the noble grape of Spain, Tempranillo has found a place here in the Columbia Valley. Showing best with a blending partner, Cabernet was added to augment the plum, bright berry and tobacco notes. The Wine is fresh with tight acidity, lean structure and rich barrel notes.

This refreshing red blend is light on its feet, dancing with notes of raspberries and strawberries on the palate. Enjoy this beautifully textured and aromatic wine that was meticulously shaped from the cooler sites of Walla Walla.

This vintage is 98% Syrah co-fermented with 2% Viognier. The touches of Viognier dances with floral notes and accentuates the vibrant fruit of Syrah. Aged for 16 months in French oak, this wine is adventurous, balanced and fun.

The Horse Heaven Hills AVA and Cabernet Sauvignon are a flawless match. The heat of the day brings out vibrant fruit characteristics, while cool nights ensure extensive complexity through long ripening. Sandy, powdery soils lead to a unique combination of weight and silky smoothness.
