This vintage was exceptional, and it shows in every bottle. A lush, smooth-sipping red delicacy sourced from first class Washington State vineyards, this wine is light-bodied in style with elegant silk tannins and bright acidity. It offers a captivating sensory experience with 'rollercoaster' peaks—a vivid interplay of aromas, flavors, and textures—revealing vibrant notes of cranberry, red currant, fig, and wild strawberry. While bursting with these fruit-forward highlights, the wine remains grounded by a wonderfully earthy palate and a silky, lingering finish—the hallmarks of a classic, polished Pinot Noir.

Winemaker's Notes

Rated 85 Points by Wine Enthusiast - March 2026

Our 2024 Pinot Noir hails from the acclaimed Wahluke Slope in Washington State, where a warm, dry climate and well-drained, sandy soils consistently yield exceptional fruit. As winemakers, we delighted in crafting this fruit-forward delicacy, working closely with our growers within this prominent AVA to achieve optimal harvest parameters. Aged gracefully in a combination of new French and neutral oak barrels, this vintage is beautifully structured with balanced acidity and fine tannins while offering brightness and polish to the wine. It offers a captivating sensory experience with 'rollercoaster' peaks of balance, revealing vibrant notes of cranberry, red currant, fig, and wild strawberry. These bright red fruits are grounded by a wonderfully earthy palate and a silky, lingering finish.

• FUN FACT: This wine is made from our Washington State Pinot Noir fruit — you can spot the Washington icon on the back label to distinguish it. We also crafted a California Pinot Noir from this same vintage, which will be released at a future date. It’s going to be a fascinating exercise to taste them side-by-side to see how the different terroirs shaped the fruit. We recommend tucking a few bottles of the Washington vintage away now so you’re ready for the ultimate 'North vs. South' comparison when the California version arrives! Cheers!
