Welcome
Joel had a very successful trip to Washington D.C. to attend the Washington
Wine Commission Trade event. We are working with one new distributor,
for Maryland and D.C. and hope to have a Virginia distributor very soon.
Joel got a very good reception on our wines from a number of great restaurants,
bars, and hotels, so expect to see our wines in that area.
We had a smooth, successful bottling run on Monday, March 21st. We bottled
our new 2011 Barbera Rose', 2010 Walla Walla Valley Malbec, and our
limited production 2010 Petite Syrah. They are all great wines and
are now available.
The Barbera Rose' has been a sellout each year and this year's release
is the best ever. It is dry, crisp, and full of great fruit
aromas and mouthfeel. You have to try this wine. The grand Aqua Restaurant
by El Gaucho, in Seattle, has this on their menu, available by the glass.
We finally have our Malbec in stock, again. Our 2010 Malbec
is from Les Collines Vineyard in Walla Walla Valley.
The Petite Syrah has been getting a rave reception. We produced a small lot for wine club members
and the remainder is available in the tasting room.
Events
Spring Release Weekend May 4-6. Come out and join the fun.
We open the entire winery for visitors to move through and try our wines
at different tasting stations. Our barrel room will have our white
and rose' wines. The processing room will have the reds.
Tasty snacks will be available. Our newly released Malbec
and Petit Sirah will be available for tasting as well as our
other fine wines.
