2018 Hahn Hill Vineyard Chenin Blanc

Our Chenin Blanc is vividly bright with flavors of pear, quince, and grapefruit essence. It has a drier style, which closely resembles the Loire  Valley style rather than a CA Chenin. Exceptional single vineyard selections from our most prized vineyards in the Columbia and Yakima Valleys,  WA. Fermented with native yeasts and expertly crafted to portray a true sense of place.

SOIL

Wind-blown loess on basalt bedrock.

PRODUCTION TECHNIQUE

The vines from Hahn Hill Vineyard were planted in  1968 on a south-facing slope and they are some of the oldest vines in the Yakima Valley. The juice is fermented in stainless steel tanks – preserving a crisp character that enhances rather than dominates vibrant cuisine. We use no oak, no malolactic fermentation or commercial yeast in our Chenin Blanc.
