Semillon Klipsun Vineyard

2007 Red Mountain Semillon

The O'Shea Scarborough Semillon from the renowned Klipsun Vineyard beautifully showcases the essence of the Red Mountain region. This white wine exudes a light to medium body, complemented by a vibrant acidity that adds a refreshing brightness to each sip. With its fruit intensity leaning toward the prominent side, it offers delightful notes of stone fruit, citrus, and a hint of honey, making it a truly enticing experience. The dryness is distinctly present, perfectly balancing the luscious flavors without overwhelming the palate. This 2007 vintage stands out as a remarkable representation of its varietal, embodying the quality and uniqueness that the Red Mountain AVA is known for.

Region:

Washington

With 18 recognized AVAs, Washington is the second-largest wine-producing state in the United States. Most of these AVAs are located in the east, centered around the valleys of Walla Walla, the Columbia River and Yakima. The grape varieties that thrive here are numerous: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Syrah, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling and Pinot Gris all continue to make increasingly compelling wines. Washington wines thrive in dry, semi-arid conditions far from the Pacific Ocean and are protected from the Pacific Northwest rain shadow by the Olympic and Cascade mountain ranges. Washington owes its unique terroir to the historic Missoula Floods, which swept through the region 10,000 years ago, stripping away the earth and replacing it with sandy soils from modern-day Utah, Idaho and Montana.
