2007 Old Vine Zinfandel

Our flagship wine. It is the oldest producing vineyard in the Pacific
Northwest at nearly 100 years old. Every year it makes either the best
wine we put out or very close to it. In 2007 we picked at 25+ Brix,
cropping at under two tons per acre. The wine is dark and immensely
concentrated. To those who wonder if Zinfandel can be ripened outside of
California, we offer this example. Not only does Zinfandel ripen on
this old vineyard, it maintains balancing acidity to produce a wine that
ages beautifully.

2007 Pinot Wyeast

Can't say enough good things about this wine - one of the real thrills of the vintage. We expect Resonance to shine. Schindler gets better and better. To have this vineyard step up to that level of quality is very exciting. Located at fairly high elevation in the Hood River Valley, 1600 feet, the grapes are able to retain higher natural acidity. The higher acidity gives the wine brightness in its youth and a better ability to age gracefully. That and great concentration of fruit (from 1.5 ton per acre crop sizing) have produced a delicious wine.

2007 Pinot Noir Resonance

(Formerly known as Reed & Reynolds) This vineyard produces our best Pinot Noir - one of Oregon's best Pinot Noirs - almost every year.
The growers, Kevin and Carla Chambers, are fully biodynamic.


2007 Riesling Medici

Beautiful white wine.


2007 Pinot Schindler

Another of our biodynamic sites, this vineyard produced our favorite Pinot Noir this year. Distinctive and powerful terroir.


2007 Pinot Noir Oregon

A blend of our best vineyards.


2006 Abondante

The wine is a blend of wines made from grapes grown by Lonnie Wright in the Columbia Valley near The Dalles, OR. It is made up of Syrah, Merlot, Grenache, Zinfandel and Cabernet. Tastes more like a $40 wine than a $24 wine.


2007 Pinot Gris Oregon

One of the best white wines we've made.

2006 Red Table Wine

Try to find a better red wine value! The RTW is a proportional blend of all the reds we make in a given year. Don't hesitate if you are inclined to try this wine. It flies out the door.


2006 and 2006 Merlot

Dark and concentrated. Crop sizes are kept small, 2.1 tons per acre, and it pays. These wines are dark, aromatic with chocolate overtones and complex, silky tannins. The older versions have aged beautifully. Merlot can make great wine and we aim to prove it.


2007 Gewurztraminer Oak Ridge and Celilo

The Celilo has markedly higher acid and a distinct minerality, one of the best white wines we've made. The Oak Ridge is more phenolic and mouth-coating.

2007 Sweet Sydney, 2007 CJ port and The Precious

In order to amplify our tradition of producing over-the-top wines, we bring you these monsters. We may have totally lost it - how strong does wine have to be?

Sweet Sydney is a Zinfandel Icewine named for the winemaker's beautiful and, well, sweet daughter, Sydney. Freezing Zinfandel effectively removes water as ice crystals concentrating sugars, flavors and aromas. In 2007 we pulled the juice off at 50+ brix! After fermentation the wine ended up with 8% alcohol and 34% residual sugar. We use this wine as dessert with strong, flavorful cheeses.

CJ gets its name from the winemaker's energetic and spicy daughter, Casey Jane. It is a port-style wine made by using very ripe Zinfandel and an artisan made eau-de-vie. It is wonderfully aromatic, very rich and smooth, truly a remarkable wine. Women go nuts over this stuff

What can we say about The Precious? Completely and utterly over-the-top. 50% residual sugar.
