JOSH'S NOTES- 2020 Elizabeth Chardonnay
Hands down, this may be my favorite Elizabeth Chardonnay yet - I absolutely love this wine. Citrus notes like lemon rind galore, fresh melon, sliced apples, and layers and layers that keep evolving. There is fantastic acid, tension, and freshness that lingers and continues to build on itself in ultra-refreshing ways. I can’t wait to get this out to our list!

JOSH'S NOTES - 2023 Cabernet Franc
One of my favorite white wine varietals and all estate grown from two tiny blocks in our sustainably farmed LeFore and Flying B estate vineyards. The block of Viognier at Flying B fittingly sits adjacent to our team garden. Aromas of pretty stone fruits, white wildflower petals, and hints of hayfields in the late summer of Walla Walla. The wine has great energy - perfect for food pairings - and is backed by perfect body and luscious texture with ending notes of more nectarine and peach. Enjoy in these coming seasons of great weather!
