2021 Harrison Hill

The 2021 Harrison Hill patiently reveals its lively, complex core that is packed full of fresh raspberry, tobacco leaf, burnt orange peel, and sous bois notes.  The palate is delicate and silky, with flavors of red currant, truffle, and pomegranate that is lifted by the lovely oak undertones.  There is an effortlessness to this elegant wine, led by the polished tannins and bright acidity, that ends with a memorable finish.  This wine is easily adored in its youth but will truly sing after 10+ years in bottle.

98 Points – Previous Vintage

Instantly impressive in the glass… The nose is focused and bright with a delightful strawberry character. It is perhaps one of the best bottlings I’ve tasted in many years, and it boggles my mind that it came from a vintage with so many challenges. The nose is devastatingly gorgeous with focused floral notes that waft with picturesque, vibrant fruit tones. Medium to full-bodied, the wine unfolds on the palate, revealing plenty of length and complexity. The wine is layered and focused, showing that its power comes not from being bold and overbearing but rather precise, focused and elegant. This gorgeous wine will continue to offer immense pleasure for decades. – Anthony Mueller, Wine Advocate

Pairing Suggestion

Ravioli with Pancetta — Harrison Hill is a wine that will age beautifully and can be enjoyed with a plethora of selections over time. Consider pairing with grilled or roasted lamb, roasted beef or venison. Earthy vegetables such as Brussel sprouts, parsnips, squash, mushrooms and dark greens pair particularly well. For older vintages, pairings with game birds such as duck and pheasant or lighter stews are recommended.

Behind the Wine

2021 Harrison Hill

A Bordeaux-style blend from a small, historic vineyard on Snipes Mountain, this wine is labelled after the vineyard’s namesake – Harrison Hill. Over the past six decades, the state’s second oldest Cabernet vines have matured gracefully while producing progressively limited yields. This slow, elegant maturation is a compelling expression of what it means to be a terroir-driven wine.

Vineyards

Harrison Hill, a five-acre site in the Snipes Mountain AVA, still boasts a 1962 Cabernet Sauvignon planting by William Bridgman, a pioneer of planting European wine grapes in Washington State. These vines are the second oldest in the state, and the oldest used in commercial wine production.
