91 Point Washington Cabernet plus Chard and Merlot Presale!

 Notes From Doug 

This week we are featuring 3 new wines from Seven Falls Winery in Washington State.  For those not familiar with this winery I can assure you that you need to get acquainted.  If you love great Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Chardonnay you will want to try all of these wines.

 

About Seven Falls

Doug Gore has returned to winemaking with this new label for Ste. Michelle Wine Estates. Gore, Columbia Crest's original winemaker, oversees the company's viticulture, winemaking and production. This label focuses on the Wahluke Slope, a warm region north that is considered by many to be the unsung hero of the Washington wine industry.

 

Seven Falls was inspired by a series of seven waterfalls that once flowed along the Columbia River through what is now known as the Wahluke Slope. With one of the warmest and driest climates in Washington state, and sandy loam soil in the vineyards, the terroir in this historical region is perfect for creating big, bold wines with outstanding structure.

 

Many winemakers consider the Wahluke Slope to be the backbone of the Washington wine industry. The Wahluke Slope AVA is one of the state's driest and warmest grapegrowing regions, allowing nearly complete control of vine vigor and ripening through irrigation. The soils here are uniform over large areas, well drained and course in texture, and made up of gravelly and rocky silt and sand. With such a warm climate and unique soil composition, the Wahluke Slope is known for wines with big flavor and lots of structure.

 

All of these wines represent great values from Washington. We are doing 20% off mix any 12 bottles as a special intro to these great wines!
