2022 Red Willow Malbec
Yakima Valley AVA
The Red Willow Malbec vines, twenty-two years after planting, are coming into their own this vintage, resulting in a wine that opens with prominent aromas of blackberry compote, sage, wild strawberry, and lilac. These notes continue onto the palate, enhanced by a punchy acidity and brambly fruits. The initially silky mouthfeel transforms with a finish of chalky tannins, which add some welcome structure and weight to the body of the wine. The interaction of lifted floral notes and berry fruit medley is undeniably delicious in this expression of a single block of Malbec that will satisfy on release or evolve in the cellar over 10+ years.

2022 Grand Ciel Cabernet Sauvignon
Red Mountain AVA
The 2022 Grand Ciel Cabernet Sauvignon is lively, with instant appeal from the first seductive whiff. An expressive bouquet of black currants, loose-leaf Earl Grey, graphite, and crème de cassis sings from the glass before each sip. The palate is rich, balanced by a velvety texture and sturdy tannins, which allow this wine to hold a significant weight without feeling heavy. Savory, elegant barrel spices and earthy mushroom undertones lead into a seamless, never-ending finish that brings this wine to another level. Drink now after a decant or cellar 20+ years.

2023 Marguerite Sauvignon Blanc
White Bluffs AVA
The 2023 Marguerite shows the concentration of the vintage with its intense bouquet and rich palate. On the nose, notes of tree fruits like peach, nectarine, and Asian pear are framed by aromas of lemony baked pastries. The oak has integrated nicely after extended aging, imparting spice and even more volume on the palate. Bold tropical flavors are balanced by a notable floral lift and slightly green, herbaceous undertones. Brisk acid and tight structure add depth that carries the rich mid-palate to a nervy, bright finish. This wine benefits from air in its youth and will cellar beautifully for 15+ years.

2023 Harrison Hill Red Blend
Snipes Mountain AVA
Our 2023 Harrison Hill shows its poise and elegance instantly with a perfume that can only be attributed to this special site. The initial bouquet of tobacco leaf, spiced cranberry sauce, cherry cola, and ripe purple fig evolves with time in the glass. The palate has seamless weight and a silky, tight structure. Flavors of pomegranate, dried herbs de Provence, sandalwood, and red huckleberry mingle with a soft layer of warm, toasty oak, that remains present without overpowering the fruit. The finish is smooth and effortless now, but additional complexity and charm will reward your patience when you cellar for 20+ years.

2025 Ciel du Cheval Vineyard Roussanne
Red Mountain AVA
The 2025 Roussanne showcases its beautiful concentration with layers of fruit and herbaceous throughlines, resulting in a wine with great depth and intensity. Notes of green apple, Meyer lemon, lemongrass, and eucalyptus leaf waft from the glass. The waxy, honeyed texture is backed by citrus flavors and a refreshing, brisk acidity that is more prominent on the finish than the weighty mid-palate. Elderflower, pear and melon emerge with time in the glass, complementing the other bold, energetic components that make this effort sing. Enjoy now, or cellar for up to 8 years.
