James Suckling 91
A fruity, tangy pinot grigio with dried-pineapple and mango character. Steely at the same time. Full bodied, layered and delicious. Flavorful finish. Intense, and attractive. Contrasty. Drink now. Screw cap.

Winery Note
Guava, kumquat, fresh cut hay, so begins this delicious wine. Mouth filling notes of papaya, fennel,
passion fruit and an ample dose of minerality. Yes!
Single vineyard. Pure and without equal!

Vineyard
The vineyards we work with are farmed using the most up to date sustainable practices.
Evergreen Vineyard (100): Planted in 1998 by Jerry Milbrandt, the vineyard lies along a stretch of steep cliffs above the Columbia River, in the Ancient Lakes. A cooler site due to river influence, the soils are composed of fragmented basalt, gravel, silt, and caliche deposited during ice age floods. As with all of Milbrandts vineyards, Evergreen is farmed using sustainable practices. This site produces fruit with sublime mineral character and great acidity, a balance that winemakers adore.

Vintage
The 2018 vintage was incredible! This outstanding vintage began mild followed by a long and dry ripening season in the fall. This enabled us to hang the fruit to reach optimal ripeness without losing acidity or increasing sugars. The wines from 2018 are exceptional in many ways, from the great expression of the whites to the beautiful refinement and complexity of the reds. Enjoy
