Blended to showcase classic Washington Syrah, this wine draws from two Horse Heaven Hills vineyards and one Wahluke Slope vineyard. Brilliant deep ruby color with purple/red interior. Complex aromatics of blackberries and roasted cacao bean accentuate this concentrated Syrah. In the mouth this wine leads off with dark bramble fruits, and meaty aromas, followed by olive stones, spice, and violets. Substantial weight is brightened by a backbone of acidity and ripe tannins. The tiny hint of Mourvedre blended adds a bit of brightening plum flavors. An intriguing combination of finesse and power that is sure to improve over time.
Planted on what was the edge of the great Missoula floods, this steep and stony hillside vineyard is layered with gravel and caliche and has unencumbered southern exposure. Aged in French oak barrels. Layers of plum, cassis, clove, coffee bean and black pepper aromas are complemented by a full, rich mouthfeel and bright finish. This wine is approachable now and will also age gracefully for many years.
With a foundation based on the old vines from Celilo and incorporating a newer planting at an adjacent vineyard on Underwood Mountain, this 100% Pinot Noir shows rich ruby red color and opulent nose starting with strawberry and cranberry aromas, mingling with fresh cracked black pepper and rose petals. The palate flows through red raspberry, pie cherry and subtle hints of nutmeg. The overall impression of juicy, red fruit is complemented by bright acidity. The wine is beautiful, with enough acid and silky tannins to really shine with 3-5 years bottle age. Here is a wine that proves great Pinot Noir can be grown in Washington.
Truly mountain grown fruit, this wine is dry, backed by brilliant acidity and shows flavors and aromas of fresh lemon, melon rind, green apple and minerality with a saline quality. A perfect complement to fresh chilled shellfish and sushi (and of course asparagus and artichokes).
Nicknamed the “Espresso Block,” McKinley Springs gives us some of the most intense Syrah we produce. Deep purple/black color, aromas of blackberry, baking spices, roasted coffee and chocolate. Super concentrated flavors balanced with great natural acidity. Rich, yet refined, a hint of berry aromatics give evidence to the Viognier while the finish lingers on with sweet, rounded fruit characteristics. Generous and sexy, this wine will age gracefully for many years.
Clear pale straw color. This wine shows classic Roussanne aromatics of almonds, pear and exotic teas. Flavors lead with pears and peach stone, followed by chamomile flowers, almonds and mangos finishing with a rich mouth feel and a fine persistent finish. This is an extremely beguiling wine that unfolds over time. Truly a classic representation of this red wine drinkers white wine. Drink now or over the next ten years.
The floral elegance of Viognier coupled with the weight and richness of Roussanne and the brilliant acidity of Gruner Veltliner, brings aromas of quince, clove and jasmine flowers, complemented by flavors of pear, melon and vanilla with subtle hints of minerality and herbs. Finishing with bright, clean balanced acidity, this is an excellent everyday white that will happily accompany many foods and occasions.
Aromas of white peaches are complemented with honeysuckle and orchard blossoms. White peaches and apricot dominate the palate with subtle hints of minerality. The rich, fleshy mid-palette finishes clean with balanced acidity.
