About the Wine
The 2017 vintage started out with a cool spring which was an
extension of the preceding cool, wet winter throughout
Eastern Washington. This meant that both bud break and
bloom took place behind some of the more recent warm vintages. July and August
warmed up with temperatures higher than average leading to a typical harvest time
of mid-September for the first grapes. By the end of September, the temperatures
started to cool down allowing for extra hang time and a more extending harvest
window. The 2017 Vintage is already shaping up to be vintage with a focus on
elegance and freshness.
