Southwind Vineyard is a high-elevation site located in the Walla Walla AVA just west of Milton-Freewater, OR. The diversity in elevation and soil profiles make it an extremely special place to grow grapes. Our Cabernet Sauvignon from Southwind Vineyard sits at just about 1500 feet elevation with its vines being strained immensely from winds and a lack of soils due to those winds. This section of the vineyard provides fruit with great concentration and very small yields leading to grapes that are destined for complex, age-worthy wines.
First planted in 1975, Ciel du Cheval is located in the heart of Red Mountain and grows some of the most sought after fruit in Washington State. The soil of loam on gravel beds, inhibits vigor which leads to small berries with intense concentration and flavor.
Sitting between 675 and 1025 feet elevation, Quintessence Vineyard receives incredible sun exposure along its southwest-facing slope. With a very strong focus on different clonal plantings, they are growing some of the most complex and unique Cabernet Sauvignon in Washington State.
Planted in 2002, Lady Hawk Vineyard sits in the southern section of the Horse Heaven Hills AVA. The 4.5 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon grown at this sight are swept by the winds off the Columbia River, allowing longer hang time and more complex fruit.
Obelisco vineyard sits on the Red Mountain AVA and is known for its warm, dry sunny days and cool summer nights. The volcanic, rocky Red Mountain landscape was formed over 10,000 years ago with the Missoula Floods creating a new landscape with rich soil deposits over sand, silt and gravel.
