CHARDONNAY 
The 2007 Chardonnay was made in a style used by some Australians in producing their Sauvignon Blancs.  This resulted in a crisp, citrus/lime wine style, aged with moderate French oak, to complement the trend toward fresh ingredients and flavors in today's cuisine.  Excellent with sauces with lemon or lime, saute entrees, and also grilled fish. Now available at a special price of $12. Also available from our tasting room in a 1.5L (magnum) bottle (reg. $28) now at seasonal discounted value of $22 per bottle.

MERLOT
Our 2006 Merlot is from the Stone Tree Vineyard in the prestigious Wahluke Slope Appellation near Mattawa.  Our two-clone blend had smaller berries which intensified the flavors in the wine.  Clone 15 tasted of blueberry and clone 3 of cherry.  Barrel aging with French oak resulted in complex flavors including cherry, blackberry, anise, black pepper and spice.  Soft tannins and a fruit butter finish.

CABERNET SAUVIGNON
Our 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon is from the Ahler Vineyard in the unique Walla Walla Valley Appellation.  The vineyard is founded on the deep, rich, river bed soils formed by the ancient, ice-age Missoula Floods.  The wine shows cherry, clove, and warm spice flavors with a lingering, viscous, fruit finish.
