Touriga Nacional ONE Upland Vineyard Yakima Valley AVA We started bringing in Touriga Nacional in 2008 for our Port Style Wine the Opulento. Often considered the premier varietal in Portuguese fortified wines it is increasingly used there to produce dry style wines. After having tasted several of these wines I decided to ferment a barrels worth of Touriga Nacional to dryness. I was so pleased with the 2012 that I decided to do four barrels from the same vineyard in 2013 with equally exciting results. The decision was made to blend all five barrels together to make a non-vintage blend. Still ONE Variety and ONE Vineyard source, still a stunning example of what this variety is capable of in Washington. Tasting Notes: Dark garnet in color, aromas of dried cherry, violets, spice and plums jump from the glass. The fruit on the palate follows the nose while the tannins are round. Flavors persist long after the wine leaves your mouth and the balance is perfect. I recommend serving this wine with pork loin and cherry sauce. Drink now through 2023. Vintages, Grape Varieties & Vineyard Sources This is a blend of 20% from the 2012 vintage and 80% from 2013 100% Touriga Nacional Upland Vineyard, Yakima Valley Oak Aging Aged from 22 to 34 months in 20% new French Oak, the balance was 2-5 year old barrels.

'Terroir' the Port Vineyards Are Located in the North East of Portugal in The
Geography and ‘terroir’ The Port vineyards are located in the north east of Portugal in the mountainous upper reaches of the Douro River Valley. This region lies about 130 kilometres inland and is protected from the influence of the Atlantic Ocean by the Marão mountains. The vineyard area is hot and dry in summer and cold in winter, excellent conditions for producing the concentrated and powerful wines needed to make port. The coastal area is humid and temperate, providing the ideal conditions in which to age the wine. The grapes are grown and turned into wine in the vineyards of the Douro Valley. In the spring following the harvest, the wine is brought down to the coast to be aged in the warehouses of the Port houses, known as ‘lodges’. The ‘lodges’ are located in Vila Nova de Gaia, a town located on the south bank of the River Douro facing the old city of Oporto. Until about sixty years ago, the wine was brought down the river from the vineyards to the coast in traditional boats called ‘barcos rabelos’. Most of the vineyards are planted on the steep hillsides of the Douro River valley and those of its tributaries, such as the Corgo, the Távora and the Pinhão. The oldest vineyards are planted on ancient walled terraces, some made over two hundred years ago. These have been classified as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The Douro Valley is considered to be one of the most beautiful and spectacular vineyard areas in the world. The soil of the Douro Valley is very stony and is made up of schist, a kind of volcanic rock.

2013 Tempranillo Celebrates Our 13Th Vintage of This Noble Span- Ish Variety That Has Found a Natural Home in Our Estate Vineyard
TEMPRANILLO THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED 2013 VINEYARD Tempranillo is Spain’s answer to Cabernet Sauvignon and is responsi- ble for putting the guts into so many good Spanish wines. Its grapes are thick-skinned and capable of producing deep-colored long-lasting wines. Temprano means early in Spanish, and Tempranillo probably earns its name from its ability to ripen early, two to three weeks be- fore our other red grape varieties. The grapes for this wine come from our own vineyard in the foothills of Amador County. This particular vineyard block is planted with two carefully selected clones of Tempranillo on a Vertical Shoot Position trellis. The vineyard is in a relatively cool site with a large diurnal temperature swing that produces well-structured wines. 2013 saw a fairly idyllic growing season with few challenges. Yields were moder- ate at approximately 4.5 tons/acre. WINEMAKING STYLE Picked ripe and hand sorted the grapes were crushed and destemmed to closed top fermentors. 2 gentle pumpovers combined with a rack- and-return were performed each day. The wine was pressed off the skins at approximately 2 brix, and finished fermentation in a combi- nation of French and American Oak (32% new). The wine was aged for 16 months in barrels, and completed a natural malolactic fermen- tation in barrel. 2% Touriga Nacional and 2% Souzao were added. WINEMAKER’S COMMENTS - STUART SPENCER The 2013 Tempranillo celebrates our 13th vintage of this noble Span- ish variety that has found a natural home in our estate vineyard. The wine is a big, chewy, well-structured red with full, round aromas of spice, tobacco, and dark fruits.
