This is our second release of our Estate Müller Thurgau, vintage 2006!

Our family hand maintains a half acre block of vines originally planted in 1981 by our neighbors at Bainbridge Island Vineyard & Winery. From this block we've harvested about a ton of grapes, yielding 58 cases of wine.

The vineyard being in the Puget Sound American Viticultural Area (AVA) means we get all the benefits of the maritime-influenced cool climate growing area as well as the extended length days of our more northerly latitude. What all this leads to is the most fragrant and aromatic wines imaginable...

We brought in the 2006 harvest with excellent numbers and clean bright flavors. It is a dry white wine, and is an excellent accompaniment to most fish and other seafoods; it especially shines with Mike's specialty Dill-Caper Chicken. This wine was not intended to be aged -- please enjoy it young, while its fresh fruit aromatics are at their peak.
