Columbia Valley vineyards lie in the rain shadow of the Cascade Mountains and receive just 6-8 inches of rainfall annually. Warm, sunny days and cool evening temperatures create ideal conditions for intense aroma and flavor development in the ripening grapes.

WINEMAKING – Riesling grapes were harvested in September and October at the peak of flavor ripeness Fermentation temperatures were maintained at 55-60 degrees Fahrenheit to preserve Riesling’s fresh and fruity character. Our winemaker chooses select lots of Riesling to create this elegant, dry style of Riesling, while maintaining beautiful fruit character.
