2003 Walla Walla Valley Syrah

Double Platinum! 1st Place! 2007 Platinum Awards, Wine Press Northwest, Jan. 2007

Gold Medal, 2005 Oregon State Fair

"Recommended!" Northwest Palate Magazine, Nov/Dec 2005

“The Walla Walla Valley’s only winery on the Oregon side of the border has turned out one of the Northwest’s finest Syrah’s. It opens with intense aromas of red fruit and hints of oak, followed by intense flavors of dark fruit. A racy black pepper plays throughout the rich, opulent palate."
