Wine Yakima Valley Wine Yakima Valley @YakimaAVA WineYakimaValley Cover & this page: © Richard Duval Images GROWN TO GREATNESS Exploring the complexity and diversity of Yakima Valley’s rich cornucopia of wine. All photos this page: © Richard Duval Images The Yakima Valley AVA grows more than RATTLESNAKE Yakima Valley 47 wine grapes varieties. The success HILLS Appellation of this diversity can be attributed to the many different growing aspects within the AVA. The micro climates, heat variations, SNIPES and different soil types within the three Yakima MOUNTAIN RED MOUNTAIN Valley sub AVAs — Rattlesnake Hills, Snipes Mountain & Red Mountain — play a major role in successfully growing so many grape varieties. RATTLESNAKE HILLS AVA Rattlesnake Hills, located around the town of Zillah, is named after the Northern Pacific Rattlesnake that inhabits the area. Rattlesnake Hills is almost evenly split between red and white wine grapes, with reds having a slight edge. Riesling is a dominant white grape in this region producing wines with aromas and flavors of lime, lemon, and green apple. Other sites in the appellation offer flavors with a little more stone fruit, particularly peach. SNIPES MOUNTAIN AVA Snipes Mountain gets its name from Ben Snipes, a cattle rancher who built a house there in the 1850s. It's the second smallest appellation in Washington with just 820 of the 5,145 acres planted in over 30 vinifera varieties. Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon the most planted. Fruit from this AVA offer unique aromas and flavors which have made it desirable for winemakers to identify it as a Snipes Mountain-designated wine. RED MOUNTAIN AVA The Red Mountain AVA is located on the far eastern side of the Yakima Valley. It is the smallest appellation in Washington state with just 2,227 of the 4,040 vineyard acres planted. Cheatgrass, a plant that grows naturally in the region, turns bright red in early spring giving Red Mountain its name. The nearby Yakima River moderates temperatures and provides continual airflow, guarding against frost. Celebrating Our Founders he Yakima Valley Founders' program commemorates the founders of the Yakima Valley Twine industry and its legacy within Washington state. It's an opportunity to celebrate the success of the dream these visionaries had of creating one of the world's most prestigious wine growing regions. When you see these logos, know that the winemaker or grower involved with the business has been active and instrumental in the Yakima Valley wine industry for 25 years or longer. 2 SIGNATURE EVENTS isiting and tasting in the Yakima Valley is a treat any time of Vthe year, but a weekend trip during one of our Association- sponsored events can be especially memorable.

  • Bonair Winery Owners and Vineyards
    BONAIR WINERY Gail and Shirley Puryear “Experience the Dream” BW-WA-121 Phone 509.829.6027 Fax 509.829.6510 OWNERS: Gail and Shirley fell in love with wine (and each other) as college exchange students in the wine country of Chile in 1967. After graduating from Washington State University, they moved to Southern California. It didn’t take them long to discover the wine country of California. Careers and children intervened for the next nine years, but in his spare time Gail read wine books, made wine, and taught wine appreciation courses. In 1979 the family moved back to their native Yakima Valley and purchased the five acres that is now the location of the original estate vineyards, the hospitality center, and the winery. They planted the chardonnay and cabernet vineyard and sold the grapes to Quail Run Winery. Not satisfied with just growing the grapes, they decided to jump into the fledging Washington Wine industry and bonded the winery in 1985. Their family and friends felt sorry for them because they thought that no one would find a winery at the end of a dusty country road. Shirley quit her teaching job in 1987 to work the vineyards and tasting room. Gail quit his job as elementary school principal in 1992 to devote his winemaking skills full time to the winery. Bonair Winery now encompasses 35 acres of prime vineyards in the heart of the Rattlesnake Hills AVA. A state of the art winemaking facility and a beautiful new hospitality center with spacious picnic areas are open year round.

  • 2016 Estate Red Mountain Syrah
    VINEYARDS 2016 ESTATE RED MOUNTAIN SYRAH RED MOUNTAIN ORIGINALS In 1975 our family planted the first vineyard on Red Mountain, an area now known for producing some of the world’s most powerful, opulent wines of distinction. For three generations we’ve worked side by side, hand in hand to craft exciting, vineyard-driven wines that capture the essence of Red Mountain. VINEYARD PROFILE Legendary Washington vineyard guru Dick Boushey famously proclaimed that “syrah loves a view,” and that’s exactly what Sunset Bench vineyard oers. It’s located higher on the hill than many of our other plantings, resulting in superb air/water drainage, dramatic diurnal temperature swings, and ample heat accumulation. WINE PROFILE Syrah from Red Mountain is prized for producing wines of profound concentration, color, and character. Elevage in a gentle french oak program ensures gorgeous fruit and ample minerality are preserved in bottle. Expect deep color and a lengthy finish; this is a remarkable wine. Mourvèdre in the blend adds aromatics, savories, and com- plexity. VINTAGE NOTES STATISTICS The 2016 vintage started early, with VINEYARD SOURCES // temperatures in the triple digits in May. The 85% Sunset Bench, Red Mountain AVA summer was pretty typical; lots of ripening 15% Heart of the Hill, Red Mountain AVA ability and absent of precipitation. Although VARIETAL COMPOSITION // harvest started early, temperatures cooled 85% Syrah, 12% Mourvèdre, 3% Cabernet Sauvignon nicely in late summer, extending harvest and WINEMAKING // allowing for great flavor development.

  • 2016 Charles & Charles Riesling
    2016 CHARLES & CHARLES RIESLING ART DEN HOED VINEYARD • YAKIMA VALLEY • WASHINGTON STATE THE VINTAGE The 2016 vintage’s slightly different profile is due to the cool September and October months, which allowed an even gentler ripening. Also, the fact that it’s our third year working with this vineyard and we believe that we are directing the farming a little better, particularly from an irrigation point of view. THE WINE The result is a wine that has a unique richness for Riesling as the high tones are even a bit higher. There's a touch more of the high tone key lime Mosel component that shines through to make for a more dynamic and complex profile. The aromatics have a distinct citrus zest, key lime, apricot, peach and summer flowers. Thankfully, none of the aromas or flavors dominate, allowing an underlying salinity and mineral component to shine through. The wine is beautifully balanced from a kiss of sugar and bright acidity. pH – 3.05 RS – .12g/L Alc – 12% 15,000 cases produced THE TERROIR This Riesling is 100% from grapes grown on the Art Den Hoed vineyard, right on the outside edge of the Rattlesnake Hills AVA, in the Yakima Valley. Aside from Art’s great farming, what makes this vineyard special for world-class Riesling is the gently sloping, high elevation (1,250 feet) and shallow, well-drained Warden Series silt loam soils. The higher elevation maintains a mountain climate with much more moderate summer temperatures. THE LABEL Hatch Show Print, the legendary poster shop from Nashville, TN created the original label from which this is based.

  • Redwood Creek Winemaker Sean Hails Grew up in Ontario, Canada
    Columbia Winery™ 2020 Columbia Valley Syrah Rosé With roots dating back to 1962, Columbia Winery has been discovering and celebrating Washington wine for over 55 years. Columbia’s forward-thinking philosophy continues today in the hands of a talented and innovative winemaking team led by Winemaker Sean Hails. We believe the sum of Washington is greater than its parts, inspiring winemaking and blending philosophies rooted in discovery, sourcing our fruit from across a range of Washington’s premier AVAs. Guided by our vision of high quality, approachable wines, each season we select premier vineyard sites, refine our oak regimen and cellar techniques to impart nuance, texture, and complexity in our wines. About the Wine: The 2020 Columbia Valley Syrah Rosé is a mouthwatering, Provence-inspired wine made in Washington. In the glass, our Rosé reveals a pale pink the color of ballet tulle encircled in pale blue. Creamier than previous vintages, this Rosé bursts with aromas of strawberries with whipped cream, white blossom and ruby red grapefruit. One sip releases layers of Mandarin orange, tangerine slices and watermelon. The wine is dry, medium-light bodied with a tart, citrus effervescence that shines through the finish. Enjoy this Rosé now. Should you choose to lay it down, the pink color will stay beautiful. Enjoy with shrimp salad, oysters on the half shell, Caprese salad with melon or roast chicken with capers and lemon or a charcuterie board with thick-cut potato chips. Viticulture Notes: For our 2020 Rosé, we selected Syrah for its bright fruit characteristic and Chardonnay grapes to add layers and creaminess to the blend from the Columbia Valley AVA.
