WINEMAKER NOTES: The 2023 vintage in Washington state presented near-perfect conditions that produced wines with exceptional acid balance and sophisticated flavors and aromas. This wine was fermented and aged in a combination of new and one-year-old French barrels, imparting subtle notes of vanilla and spice. We stirred the lees for three months to develop a rich, creamy mouthfeel, without undergoing malolactic fermentation. This technique enables the integration of a rounded texture and long finish, while preserving the wine’s fresh acidity.
