2011 Pepper Bridge Vineyard
Tasting Notes
This estate vineyard characteristically lends nuances of spice and dark fruit to the grapes grown here, with the 2011 Pepper Bridge Vineyard blend being no exception. Black cherries and berries integrate with espresso, lavender, and sage. Supple and rounded, the generous mid-palate of this wine offers subtle acidity and minerality that slowly give way to a gentle and lingering finish.
The Year
From beginning to end, this was a cool year. The Walla Walla Valley experienced no 100-degree days for the first time in well over a decade. Despite the cooler weather, our vineyards were still able to reach full ripening, with harvest occurring approximately three weeks late. The longer hang time led to layered, nuanced flavors with vibrancy and natural balance.
