2014 COLUMBIA VALLEY ESTATES CUVÉE

In 1975 our family planted the first vineyard on Red Mountain, an area now known for producing some of the world’s most powerful, opulent wines of distinction. For three generations we’ve worked side by side, hand in hand to craft exciting, vineyard-driven wines that capture the essence of Red Mountain and the Columbia Valley.

Estates Cuvée is a blend from all of our estate vineyards. Each site contributes to the wine in a special way, resulting in an estate-grown wine that is uniquely representative of Washington state. The Columbia Valley components bring acid, fruit, and drinkability, while the Red Mountain additions contribute depth, structure, and color.

This nuanced, multi-faceted, food-pairing superstar shows that Washington wines pack a serious punch at every price point. Declassified family-grown estate fruit from the Pacific Northwest’s premier AVAs in an approachable, balanced, textured, and crowd-pleasing blend? Yes, please.
