2020 COLUMBIA VALLEY LATE COLUMBIA VALLEY ORIGINALS In 1975 our family planted one of the first vineyards in the Columbia Valley, an area now known for producing some of the world’s most powerful, opulent of distinction. For three generations we’ve worked together on our farm to grow excit- ing, -driven wines that capture the essence of the Columbia Valley AVA. VINEYARD PROFILE Acid balance is imperative when crafting world-class late harvest , and we’ve found that the riesling from Olsen vineyard is ideally suited for that requisite trait. It’s got the ideal exposure, precipitation levels, and diurnal shift to produce the delicious, well-balanced we have earned a reputation for.

WINE PROFILE Picked far into the growing season, this Late Harvest Riesling had plenty of time to develop exceptional flavor complexity and high levels. The wine is cold-fer- mented to preserve fresh-fruit flavors and accentuate the site’s vibrant acidity while capturing a small amount of frizzante in every bottle.
