Here's the Wine Press Northwest review of our 2007 Syrah.
Rated "Outstanding"
|
| Review |
The Boeing Wine Club continues to produce commercial winemakers, and this Syrah by Steve Mason must jet out of his winery in White Salmon, Wash. A production from the Milbrandts' Clifton Vineyard, it showcases aromas of blueberry, plums, coffee, chocolate, cedar and rose petal. It's easy on the approach with blueberry and boysenberry flavors. Cherry acidity and caramel give it extra lift on the palate, and chocolaty tannins firm it up. |

2007 Oregon Pinot Noir
Yamhill Carlton District
Wahle Vineyard
This is Pinot Noir from the Willamette Valley. Wahle Vineyard allows us to select the individual row of Pommard, Wadensville, 777 and other clones for a custom blend. The distinct flavor of tangy cherries with a touch of oak makes a delicate and balanced pinot.
$18 each or $173 by the case with the discount. ___________________________________________
2009 Washington State Syrah
Columiba Valley
Dineen Vineyard
Intense, ripe, plump with blackberries, cola,with fine tannins. Aged for 18 months in neutral oak barrels. Its easy on the approach but broad and lush on the palate.

2008 Washington State Cabernet Franc
Horse Heaven Hills
Aldercreek Vineyard
This is a very exciting Cab Franc following in the footsteps of its predescessors, that speaks volumes about its heritage. Grown on the eastern Columbia River Gorge on sandy loam soils, the grapes are treated to a long growing season and perfect ripening conditions of warm days, cool nights and wind to dry the vines. Strong dark currant and pepper flavors ignite the palate. 30 long months were spent in oak barrels, to create a rounded full wine. A very limited production of 43 cases.
$25 per bottle or $240 per case with the discount.

NEW! 2009 Goodness Gracie blend.
This is a Syrah / Cab Franc blend with a real Columbia River Gorge theme. Bright notes of red fruit and spice from the Cab Franc, and a rich dark foundation of blackerry from the Syrah combine to produce a delightfu red wine.
$20 per bottle, $192 per case with the discount
