2017 Necessity Red
Wine Club Price: $24.00$30.00
This wine is a lively blend of our premier Pinot Noir, Zinfandel and Barbera grapes, celebrating the uniqueness and diversity of our Columbia Gorge wine-growing region. The blend creates a Pinot Noir affect with real substance and weight. All 3 varietals are grown within 25 miles of the winery; there are few places in the world where that is possible.
Fruit-forward with a smooth mouthfeel, this vintage boasts an aroma of violets, rose hips, pomegranate and red currant and a palate offering beautiful acidity, smooth with a soft finish. Great everyday and dinner party wine!

This wine is the wine find of a life time. Exaggeration, not! Most wines are better when paired with the right food but not this one. Necessity Red is wine’s answer to “sipping whiskey.” When you feel like just sitting back and relaxing with a wonderful satisfying smooth light throated tongue caressing offer to the gods open a bottle of Necessity Red and chill. You can sip a glass of this wine for an hour or more depending on the size of the glass. Personally I have yet to pair it with a meal because it is so good by itself. It’s the only wine I’ve ever found to be this good alone.
