Columbia Valley, Washington
Enjoy an expertly crafted 90 Point Sauvignon Blanc that showcases our world class winemaking
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Watchful Maker
Sauvignon Blanc
Watchful Maker is all about the craft that goes into winemaking. It’s about the idea that there is an art to making expressive wines that change the way you think about a certain style or certain grape. This wine is made by our team using grapes from Columbia Valley in Washington. Lying in the rain-shadow of the Cascade Mountains, the vines are forced to work harder with very little rainfall, producing grapes with concentrated and expressive flavors. This wine has beautiful citrus notes that are touched by hints of wet stone and white flowers. The acidity keeps you refreshed as you drink and pairs well with vegetables, chicken dishes, and briny or sour cheeses. And judges love it too! It took home 90 Points and a Gold medal from the 2019 Sommelier Challenge.

WINE REGION:
Columbia Valley
Sheltered by the rain shadow of the Cascade Mountains, Columbia Valley is home to the majority of Washington's vineyards. Cool nights keep zippy acidity in the grapes, while long daylight hours give the fruit plenty of chance to ripen. This results in full-bodied Merlot, elegant Cabernet Sauvignon and deeply concentrated Syrah. White wines are just as tantalizing, with toasty oak-touched Chardonnay and ripe stone fruit-flavored Riesling taking the spotlight. Sub-AVAs to look out for are Yakima Valley and Walla Walla. The Columbia Valley is one of the only appellations in the United States to occupy vineyards in two states, as it crosses the Oregon border in the southern part of the valley.
