The wine region of Wahluke Slope

Warm well-drained Washington AVA (Columbia Valley, Grant County) facing south over the Columbia: Cabernet Sauvignon signature king red — opulent and ripe with notes of blackcurrant, black cherry, blackberry, chocolate, cedar and spice touch, round tannins and long finish. Dense savoury Syrah as companion (blackberry, blueberry, pepper, smoked meat). Fleshy Merlot also signature. AVA (2006), constant southern slope, deep aeolian sands, dry continental, ~20% of state harvest.


The wine region of Washington

2nd US producer by volume, on the arid, sunny Columbia Valley. Star Cabernet Sauvignon (~60% of reds): powerful and structured with signature notes of blackcurrant, blackberry, cedar, dry herbs and graphite, firm tannins. Fleshy, peppery Syrah (black fruits, smoked meat). Round, fruity Merlot, historic mineral Riesling (dry and off-dry), precise Chardonnay and ample Sémillon.
