The wine region of Columbia Valley

Cradle of Washington State's great reds. Dense, structured Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, blackberry, graphite, firm tannins), round velvety Merlot, signature Syrah with peppery notes, black olive and deep black fruit. Also precise whites: balanced Chardonnay, taut fruity Riesling with peach notes. Semi-desert vineyard of 24,300 ha sheltered by the Cascades, loess soils over basalt, strong temperature swings.


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.

The word of the wine: Overmaturation

When the grapes reach maturity, the skin becomes permeable and progressively loses water, which causes a concentration phenomenon inside the berry. This is called over-ripening or passerillage.
