48% - Winesap Vineyard
The Rocks District of Milton-Freewater, Walla Walla Valley, Columbia Valley

Winesap Vineyard is a 12 acre vineyard planted in the rocky floodplain of the Walla Walla River in The Rocks District of Milton-Freewater.

2020 began with a cool, wet spring. Budbreak was tracking in a normal pattern, while rain during bloom caused yields to be lower than normal - focusing concentration of berry and flavor development. A cooler than normal July and August helped the fruit ripen steadily and we harvested these vineyards in mid-October. The 2020 wines are marked by concentrated fruit flavors, richness, and intensity.

This wine shows a deep, dense red color with an indego hue. Aromas of dark cherries, plum and
blackberries mingle with subtle notes of herb and minerals. The flavors mimic the aromas with
additional notes of spice and ripe fruit. The bold body of this wine contributes to a robust finish.
Enjoy now or for the next 7+ years as this wine is sure to gain additional complexity with age.
