From head-trained vines in our organically farmed Glacial Gravels Vineyard, this Syrah is both rugged and refined, echoing the depth of the Northern Rhône-style while staying true to Lake Chelan’s unique terroir.
Bursting with blackberry and plum layered with spice, smoked meat, and a touch of olive, the wine shows firm tannins and fresh acidity for age-worthiness. With air, it becomes increasingly supple and expressive, making each glass more layered and complex than the last. A wine that truly rewards a decant or patience after pulling the cork.
The 2022 vintage was 100% destemmed and given a 5-day cold soak before native fermentation in T-bins. Twice-daily punch-downs guided extraction, followed by pressing at dryness. The wine was aged 24 months in 38% new French oak before bottling in November 2024. Just 191 cases produced.
