Our wines

We have nine acres of estate grapes in production—Riesling, Pinot Noir, and Syrah—and produce about 900 cases a year.  We are in the process of building a new production facility, which will enable us to expand production to 2000 cases. 

In addition to our Estate Riesling, Pinot Noir, and Syrah, we also produce a Zinfandel, a Rosé, a Viognier, and our Camino, a white blend of Riesling and Gewurztraminer.

Most of our wine is sold directly out of our tasting room, though it can also be enjoyed at some local restaurants or sent directly to your doorstep through our wine club or online store.

Whites & Rosé

2010 Estate Riesling  A semi-dry Riesling with flavors of candied pear and a dash of grapefruit. On the nose, a rush of ripe Gala apples with subtle notes of citrus. Harvested October 26, 2010 with 22 brix of sugar. 2.5% residual sugar. 128 cases produced.

2010 Camino  50% Estate Riesling, 50% Gewurztraminer. Aromas of Comice pear join with balanced acids and flavors of honeysuckle and lychee. 1.9% residual sugar.  89 cases produced. SOLD OUT

2010 Rosé  This Syrah Rosé starts with aromas of berry and citrus on the nose followed by a palate reminiscent of strawberry rhubarb preserves.  Just of touch of grapefruit on the finish.  Harvested October 26, 2010 with 23.25 brix of sugar. 2.3% residual sugar. 89 cases produced. SOLD OUT

Reds

2008 Estate Syrah  A rich, jammy nose, brimming with ripe plums and dried cherries.  A full mid-palate with softer tannins.  Strong acidity creates a long finish.  A good wine for aging.  Harvested October 28, 2008. 122 cases produced.

2007 "South Shore" Syrah  Our first Lake Chelan AVA vintage!  Ripe berries on the nose continuing onto the palate.  A well-balanced wine with medium body and tannins.  Approachable as a sipping wine and especially versatile with food.  Harvested October 25, 2007.  150 cases produced.

2009 Estate Pinot Noir  Characterized by violets and raspberries on the nose, this vibrant Pinot fills the mouth with flavors of cherry, cloves and a hint of smoke.  Medium-bodied with a delicate finish.  Expect this wine to become velvety and rich with age.  Harvested September 25, 2009.  145 cases produced.

2009 Estate Syrah  Aromas of fresh boysenberry and white pepper on the nose, continuing on the palate.  A medium-bodied wine with hints of earth, raspberries and anise.  58 cases produced.

2010 Zinfandel  A rich, jammy nose, brimming with ripe plums and dried cherries.  A full mid-palate with softer tannins.  Strong acidity creates a long finish.  A good wine for aging.   Anticipated bottling April 2012.
