This 100% estate Malbec hails from our Glacial Gravels vineyard on the north shore of Lake Chelan, which is organically sustainably farmed. The first vintage we've been able to release 100% from this site.
Ripe cherry and peppercorn in the nose. Full bodied with silky tannins. Dark inky purple with flavors of blackberries, bramble, black olives and sage. The finish is deep and satisfying with smooth tannins and glacial minerals.
Pairs with blue cheese bison burgers, cassoulet or a simple steak will fit the bill just fine.

VINEYARDS
Located on the North Shore of Lake Chelan, our Glacial Gravels vineyard is situated at 1250’ elevation, on a southwest facing slope. The soils consist of well-drained gravel interspersed with large stones and small boulders. Farmer Jon Vineyard is on the south shore of Lake Chelan and is facing east, planted in rough terrain at 1375’.
The “lake effect” moderates temperatures year round providing protection from freezes and the cooler climate allows for longer hang time allowing grapes to gradually ripen and develop flavors. We farm our estate vineyard using organic and sustainable methods and we are the first vineyard in North Central Washington certified Salmon Safe and LIVE sustainable. Grapes are cropped at 2.5 – 3 tons per acre.
