This young vineyard is starting to make a name for itself with winemakers, and this 100% varietal wine demonstrates why. It's a classically Washington Merlot that shows appealing aromas of milk choco…
Aromas and flavors of dark cherry, earth, and leather; lots of toast, too. This is full-stride Pinot made from fine materials, and the mouthfeel is very polished and balanced. Finishes long, with che…

An ultrapure nose and tons of polish and precision define this tasty reserve-style blend of several vineyards. Pretty much an easy-drinker, with an undercurrent of sweet cherries and vanilla. It hits…
A tight, rich, dense package, wrapped in just the right amount of French oak. Black cherries are blended with foresty aromas and a dark earthy richness reminiscent of humus. It’s all capped by wonder…
A solid wine with lots of character and a core of ripe, almost sweet cherry fruit. The sweetness is balanced by complex leather, tarragon and earth aromas, and on the palate by an attractive mineral…

Creamy and leesy, with a complex mix of mineral, fresh herb, citrus rind and pungent botanicals, this is an interesting and refreshing style of Pinot Gris. Give it a good chill and watch it open as i…

Named for a Margaret River subregion, Cape Mentelle's Wilyabrup is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. It's structured and restrained on the palate, easily blending cherry, ceda…
A very fine Cab, complex and interesting in every way. Nearing five years of age, it's right at that point where the primary fruit character is changing into notes of funky leather. The tannins are A…
