JOSH'S NOTES - 2024 Elizabeth Chardonnay 
I am stoked to be able to offer Elizabeth from our own estate vineyard, Coulee, in the Willamette Valley for the first time. As winter temperatures hurt us in Walla Walla in 2024, by good fortune, we were able to quickly pivot to some of the best Chardonnay in the world with this wine. Lemon zest, fresh cut pears and apples, honey dew, and ever-so-subtle hints of hay. This site is so complex in its ability to grow great Chardonnay. Texturally fresh, energized, and balanced by a great mid palate. A versatile wine, perfect for food - lunch, dinner, or maybe even breakfast if you must! However, the wine easily
stands alone. Enjoy!

JOSH'S NOTES - 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon 
The new 2023 vintage of Bledsoe Family Cabernet Sauvignon is a stunning example of a great growing season. Driven by red fruit, freshly picked blackberries, small hints of vanilla mixed with the sagebrush land that surrounds the vineyards. The mouthfeel is beautiful, generous, rich, soft, and layered, loaded with drinking pleasure. Another great example of quintessential Walla Walla Valley Cabernet Sauvignon aiming to punch above its weight class. Enjoy!
