“The mostly stainless steel fermentation makes this a crisp, clean,
refreshing style of Sauvignon Blanc. The wine offers fresh aromas
and flavors of lemongrass, apple and melon. We add Semillon,
which contributes an appealing fig character and a beautiful soft,
rich quality to the wine.”
-Bob Bertheau, Head Winemaker

- Sourced from our Horse Heaven Vineyard, as well as vineyards throughout the Columbia Valley.
- Columbia Valley vineyards lie in the rain shadow of the Cascade Mountains and receive just 6-8 inches of rainfall annually.
- Sandy soils with low fertility and low water-holding capacity enable precise control of vine growth.
- Warm, sunny days and cool evenings create ideal conditions for aroma and flavor development in the ripening grapes.
- A northerly latitude gives the Columbia Valley roughly two
more hours of sunlight daily during the peak-growing season than
California, increasing the region’s ability to ripen fruit.
