  • 2016 Champoux Vineyard Red Wine
    2016 Champoux Vineyard Red Wine We make the Champoux blend not just because we are such big fans of the vineyard, but because of the way that Merlot and Cabernet Franc shine from this site. This wine is the alter ego to Sorella. We almost always craft this wine with a nod towards a majority Cab Franc or Merlot in this case. This wine allows us to show the full range of Champoux Vineyard. The 2016 Vintage in Washington State started out quick during the spring, but in early June the weather returned to normal and thus lead to a start date of September 12th for picking. Harvest continued until October 25th with Cabernet Sauvignon from Two Blondes vineyard coming in. Right away we saw the high potential of the fruit and how this vintage would end up being another great vintage for us. Reviews: (97 Points)...One of the finest examples of this cuvée I’ve tasted is the 2016 Champoux Vineyard, which comes from one of the top terroirs in the state and is in the slightly cooler Horse Heaven Hills AVA. Young, full-bodied, and primordial, it has incredible potential but is going to need 4-5 years of bottle age. Thrilling notes of blueberries, cassis, lead pencil shavings, and bouquet garni all define the bouquet and it has remarkable purity and elegance. It picks up more floral and high-toned notes with time in the glass and is a brilliant bottle of wine that will keep for 2-3 decades. Jeb Dunnuck - Jebdunnuck.com (94+ Points)…Opens with a rich and ripe expression of dark, dusty fruit interlaced with supporting oak tones on the nose.

  • Powers Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Champoux Vineyard Horse Heaven Hills 2016
    2016 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Champoux Vineyard TASTING NOTES Exquisite layered aromatics of blueberry, dark cherry, and cedar with hints of violets, vanilla and warm earth. This intriguing nose is followed by dense savory flavors of black currant, dark fruits, and cranberry with touches of cocoa, smoke and spice lingering on this complex palate. Firm, dusty, lush tannins are accented by hints of oak, acidity, and earthiness on the finish. As is typical of Champoux Vineyard, this is a very elegant yet powerful Cabernet Sauvignon that will cellar for many years. BLEND/VINEYARD INFO 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Cabernet Franc, 2% Merlot, & 2% Malbec 94% Champoux Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, Horse Heaven Hills 2% Champoux Vineyard Cabernet Franc, Horse Heaven Hills 2% Champoux Vineyard Merlot, Horse Heaven Hills 2% Champoux Vineyard Malbec, Horse Heaven Hills WINEMAKER’S NOTES We have been fortunate to work with Champoux Vineyard fruit since 1992 and we believe it is the most intense and one of the most expressive vineyard sites in Washington State. The varietals were harvested from late Setember to late October with near perfect acididty and fruit flavors. We used the pump-under fermentation process with PDM yeast to enhance the nice richness you would expect from Champoux Vineyard. The wine was then aged for 32 months in 55% new French Oak barrels, 25% in 2nd fill along with the last 20% in neutral French Oak Barrels.

  • 2009 Champoux Vineyard 78% Cabernet Sauvignon & 22% Cabernet Franc Horse Heaven Hills
    2009 Champoux Vineyard 78% Cabernet Sauvignon & 22% Cabernet Franc Horse Heaven Hills Champoux Vineyard was originally planted on the slope of Phinny Hill in 1971. In the four decades since, Champoux has earned a reputation as one of the greatest cabernet vineyards on the West Coast. Caleb has made cabernet sauvignon since 1991 from its blocks, and Buty has been producing this single-vineyard blend of Cabernet Sauvignon & Cabernet Franc since 2000. Champoux benefits from a long growing season flowering in mid-June and lasting until October's end. The site’s unique soils, cooling winds off the Columbia River and old clonal selections impart a distinctive aromatic signature. Building on our experience with Champoux, Caleb underscores the vineyard’s head-turning aromatics with a silky style that incorporates cabernet franc to balance the wine’s texture and power. We harvested our cabernet franc first on September 21 at 23.9˚ Brix. The cabernet sauvignon followed on October 3 at 25.7˚ Brix, with a pH of 3.50. All our hand-harvested fruit was cluster sorted then whole-grape sorted on shaker tables and gravity transferred to tank. The cabernet franc and cabernet sauvignon spent 22 and 18 days respectively fermenting on skins. Only free run wine was used. To preserve the wine’s natural strengths no acid, water, or other adjustments were made. The wine spent 21 months in 80% new Taransaud Château barrels aging unracked on the lees, and was bottled unfiltered. Nine months of bottle aging affords its full perfume upon release. The final alcohol for this wine is a modest and natural 14.3%.

    2008 Fidelitas Champoux Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon horse heaven hills TASTING NOTES The 2008 vintage of Champoux Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a deeply hued purple wine that is nearly opaque. The aromas are rich and fragrant, displaying blackcurrant, plum and violets along with a hint of anise. These notes are confirmed on the palate with an added depth of blueberry and vanilla set within well structured tannins and a long, lingering finish. Drinkable now but worthy of cellaring unl 2020. VARIETAL COMPOSITION 100% Cabernet Sauvignon VINEYARD Champoux Vineyard sits high in the Horse Heaven Hills region, about five miles above the Columbia River. The vineyard was first planted in 1972 and is known for producing some of the greatest old vine cabernet sauvignon in Washington State. Paul and Judy Champoux came here in 1986, expanding the size to about 180 acres. While there are eleven variees planted within Champoux Vineyard, nearly half of the acreage is dedicated to cabernet sauvignon. Champoux Vineyard wines are known for having a “masculine” quality, providing bold fruit and well structured tannins. VINTAGE The 2008 vintage began with cooler than usual temperatures, pushing bud break later into the month of April. Temperatures did increase as the summer progressed providing a consistent growing season. The fruit steadily ripened throughout the summer, creang an opmum balance of acidity and sugar. VINIFICATION and AGING All fruit for Fidelitas is hand picked and sorted in the vineyard.
