A light and lively, red-fruited pink sipper grounded by a subtle earthiness. Tart cherry blends with cocoa to help express Columbia Valley soil.

The winery’s flagship blend of Mourvèdre, Syrah, Grenache and some Cinsault, Vaccarèse, and Counoise, propagated from budwood cuttings from the Château de Beaucastel estate in the Rhône Valley. Chocolate cherries steeped in red tea is a first impression of this stunner. Beef broth has a line of salty chalkiness running through, obliging the juicy liquid to perform gracefully. Fennel, sage, Bay leaves, and basil take on the role of California garrigue, with a finish of spiced plum.
Balanced and meaty, with herbal tones weaving into roasted coffee, garrigue, and dark red fruit. An expressive, brooding red, with cedar and black plum on mid-palate. Notes of slate, saddle leather, and dark chocolate develop on the long finish.
Reminiscent of a Northern Rhône style, this beefy red exhibits muscular tannins, but remains poised and focused throughout. Chalky, with a whisper of cured meats and anise. Espresso, sage, and black plum make for a savory and indulgent red.
In its second vintage, this light-crimson hued Grenache almost comes across visually as a rosé. Mineral tones preside over flavors of watermelon and cranberry. Pink peppercorns and sweet basil are framed by a bolt of acidity.
A blend of five estate-grown varieties: Viognier, Marsanne, Grenache Blanc, Picardan, and Clairette Blanche. Creamy, with clove-spiced peach tart. Pecan, tapioca pudding, anise, and lemon verbena converge over chalky minerality. Complex and clean.
A blend of 40% Grenache Blanc, 29% Viognier, 10% Vermentino with some Roussanne, Marsanne, and Picpoul Blanc. Creamy, with notes of bread dough, hazelnut, melon, tangerine peel, and honeysuckle. Thyme and sage, with a hint of white pepper weaves through peach pie. Crisp and floral.
Lively and crisp, with apricot sorbet, lemon blossom, and a mineral tonality. Acidity continues to spark life into it, with a fresh, perky finish.
