Our first Pinot Noir is an experiment to test whether the unique and generous climate of eastern Washington could also produce superior cool-climate wines, like Pinot Noir. We cold-soaked the grapes, using one third of the juice for rosé, and fermented the remaining juice and skins for maximal extraction. The wine was aged for 12 months in new French oak hogsheads. It has a bold mouth-feel, quenching acidity, and ripe plum flavors. $ 25

The skins from one ton of Malbec grapes were fermented with the juice of one ton of Sauvignon Blanc grapes - creating a new and unique combination of varietal flavors. The wine was aged for 8 months, unoaked in stainless steel. May be served chilled. La Robe is French for the color of red wine. $ 35
This wine is made using traditional, old-world methods to maximize flavors. At crush, we gave the grapes 24 hours of skin contact, and ferm- ented in a 500L stainless steel tank. The wine was aged in a new French oak barriques for 8 months. Rock flour is the very finely ground rock that makes glacial lakes turquoise, and is the essential ingredient in Washington’s loess soils.

This wine is made by fermenting Shiraz skins with Marsanne juice to make a mouth-filling red wine, that combines the flavors of both grapes. The puckering, peppery flavors of Shiraz meld well with the quenching succulence of Marsanne for a delicious and unique experience. Our winemaking method derives its name from La Robe, the French term for the color of red wine. $ 35
This is a fruity, full bodied wine, made from theShiraz clone of Syrah, and Cabernet Sauvignon. We subtracted 20% of juice at crush (for rosé), cold-soaked, and fermented vigorously for 14 days. It was aged for 12 months in new and used French oak barriques. The eponym for our wine is the local sommelier, restaurateur and gourmand: Amberleigh Brownson.
