Our philosophy is focused on place and letting the grapes tell their own story.

 

Starting with our estate vineyard and farm, we have experimented with varietals and styles that are suited to the cooler, wetter, windy, higher elevation foothills of the east side of the Walla Walla Valley.
We only source other grapes from neighboring vineyards with similar terroir, farmed to achieve the expression and balance that we think is possible from these unique sites.
