OUR WINES

The 2023 QUOTIDIAN is our first foray into Viogner, one of my favorite white varietals.  It is 100% Viogner from the Royal Slope AVA.  It is produced and aged in stainless steel tank, providing a clean varietal nature with additional complexity.

I remember looking at a wine list at a nice restaurant on the Washington coast and wanting to try something other than Chardonnay.  So, I gave Viogner a try.  It opened a whole new world for me and I remember thinking…”what is this elixir of which I have not heard…Viogner!” (or something like that).  This Viogner has a nose of tangerine, peach, and honeysuckle.  On the palette, it has notes of tangerine, peach, and mango.  It is full, fresh, and bright whether you are a seasoned Viogner pro or a newbee.

The 2021 RHATHYMIA is a crisp and bright white wine with a nice acid backbone.  Aromas of lemon, brioche, flowers such as honeysuckle and jasmine, and a hint of eucalyptus.  It has flavors of (Myer) lemon, lychee, kiwi, and tart apples.  For me, this wine is like going to downtown Seattle.  I live in the suburbs and I don't go to Seattle all very often.  When I do, I always think "this is awesome, I should do this more often."  Being a red wine guy, I don't drink whites all that often.  When I drink this one, I think "…beautiful, complex, bright, lively, and layered…I ought to drink this more often."

The 2022 RHATHYMIA is a medium straw colored, medium bodied, crisp, and bright white wine with a nice acid backbone.  Aromas and flavors of lemon-lime, pineapple, green apple, and pear with a nice long finish.
