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.
