BRONZE MEDAL WINNER: 2021 Cascadia Wine Competition

Carménère, once thought to be the lost varietal of Bordeaux, was hiding in plain sight; mistaken as a unique Merlot. This wine has beautiful aromas of fresh peppers with hints of other great herbal undertones, followed by dark plums, dried dates and candied blueberry jam. On the palate you are greeted with a bold but fruity smooth tannic finish. The fruit was grown with passion at Pontin Farms in the Yakima Valley.

SILVER MEDAL WINNER:  2023 Cascadia Wine Awards

Just like a student may take an extra quarter in school, this Merlot was on the skins some extra time with an extended maceration of 10 months before then pressings into French Oak.  Aromas of sweet cherry, potpourri and strawberry spice explode out of the glass.  This Merlot is a very approachable with its dark fruit flavors and bold tannins and rick structure.  It has balanced acidity with flavors that continue to linger on the finish.  The would pair nicely with a pot roast or prime rib.
