Vineyard Information:

McNary is our coolest site, sitting on a cliff overlooking the Columbia River. Offering wines that give vibrant acidity while maintaining complexity. On the opposite side of the coin, we have Beverly, our hottest vineyard. The sandy loam soil contributes to the rich and concentrated red wines that hail from this vineyard.

Winemaking Notes:

Syrah in this Rhone heavy blend was harvested late September picked at 26 Brix. Fermented on skins for 7, cap management was kept light to help maintain juicy berry flavors. The Syrah was then aged on French oak for 8 months. Mourvèdre in this blend was picked October 5th at 26 Brix. After fermentation, wine was micro-oxygenated without any oak.
