Description

Juicy and delicious. Asian pear, golden plum and honeydew are abundant in aromas and flavors of this lush, long, fresh wine.

The vineyards the winemaker works with are farmed using the most up-to-date sustainable practices. Planted in 1998 by Jerry Milbrandt, the vineyard rows lie along a stretch of steep cliffs above the Columbia River in the state’s newest AVA, Ancient Lakes. A cooler site due to river influence, the nitrogen poor soils are composed of fragmented basalt, gravel silt, and caliche deposited during ice age floods. This site produces fruit with sublime mineral character and great acidity, a balance that winemakers adore.

The 2015 Harvest in Washington State started with an early spring bud break and continued into a warm summer. The fall turned out to be long and temperate, balancing out the heat, which gave great ripening to our fruit, bright acid, low alcohol and beautiful complexity.

Very drinkable

A light flavour and alcohol taste evident - ok value but not a preferred chard this time around
