Spring Favorites
JOSH'S NOTES - 2025 Healy Rosé
The first glimpse into the coming warmer seasons, our new Healy Rosé is begging for it! Fresh melon, strawberry, and raspberry explode from the glass. This single vineyard, single block rosé is pleasurable. Lush and plush in the mouth, energetic, the wine has a long finish of honeycrisp apples and a hint of neutral French oak sweetness. Enjoy!

JOSH'S NOTES - 2025 Elizabeth Chardonnay
This new vintage of Elizabeth is showing off aromatically. Coming from our estate vineyard, Coulee, in the Eola-Amity Hills, the diversity of the vineyard is evident in the glass. Lots of citrus - lemons, limes, even hints of grapefruit. There is a pretty sense of green apple, and the tiniest hint of straw. The palate is juicy, has tons of energy, fresh, and is screaming for food or warm weather, or both!

JOSH'S NOTES - 2023 Bob Healy Reserve
This brand new, single vineyard Cabernet comes all from our own estate, Bob Healy. Bob Healy sits in the heart of the slope on what is known as “SeVein” in the southwest side of the Walla Walla Valley. A warm site that is sustainably farmed and planted almost entirely two different clones of Cabernet with one block being devoted to Malbec. This is almost always one of the first vineyards where I pick Cabernet each vintage and it is stunning in the glass. Dark fruit, blackberry, cassis, milk chocolate notes and a hint of classic tobacco. The wine itself has fine grained tannins that are chewy, voluminous, have great energy, and a long finish. Decant this now and pair with a fattier dish but it should age gracefully for the next 15+ years.
