2007 Clifton Cuvee
This wine is a blend of 73% Grenache, 18% Syrah and 9% Mourvedre, showcasing the Milbrant Family's Clifton and Northridge Vineyards. We produce this wine as our early-release showcase of Rhône varietal character, and intensity.
2005 Merlot - Katherine Leone Vnyd
This wine is 100% Merlot from the Katherine Leone Vineyard, on the Wahluke Slope. This vineyard is owned by the Milbrandt Family, and managed by Butch Milbrandt. I have worked with this beautiful fruit since 2000. This is the first of many single vineyard designates to come from this source. The warm days of the Wahluke Slope, with nice cooling breezes, produce big jammy wines with the structure to age gracefully.
