Our Barbera is one of our most sought after wines. With sophisticated layers, bold characteristics, and brilliant tannins, it is always a wine-lovers’ delight.

Grown on the Bolton Family Vineyard North of The Dalles, OR on the Columbia River, these vines enjoy the perfect ratio of sunny days to cool nights letting the grapes ripen to perfection.

The wine expresses lovely fruit notes of ripe and juicy raspberry. Red peppercorn on the palate leaving you with a lingering bright finish.  Barbera pairs beautifully with tomato-based meat dishes such as lasagna or bolognese.

Sourced from the fabled McDuffee Vineyard in The Dalles. Due to our cooler climate, Oregon Chardonnay has a higher acidity level than California, making them more like true Burgundians. We avoid using new oak for aging our Chardonnay White Wines, reaching instead for sur lees aging (stirring of the lees) and partial Malolactic Fermentation to achieve a complete and complex lavor profile.

Aged in mellowed water-bent American Oak barrels, our Chardonnay is bright and lively, with notes of pear baked tart and caramel highlights.

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!

An aroma of ripe dark cherry, caramel, pepper and a palate filled with bright acidity and a hint of vanilla to finish.To have known Rusty is to understand why dogs are (hu)man's best friend. A joy at home or afield, he was one of the best bird pointing Labradors in the country.

A toast to Rusty: He was protective, yet playful; assertive,but not over-bearing; bold yet sweet. Like this wine, he was one of the best.

Cheers!
