Awards & Reviews
2021 Rainforest Red
2025 Savor Northwest Wine Competition - Gold, 92 points (Review)
“The red blend includes 67% Malbec and 33% Cabernet Sauvignon. It presents expressive aromas of dark fruit and chocolate that mix with notes of pipe tobacco, a dash of Allspice and dried herbs. It delivers a juicy mouthfeel with flavors of dark berries and black cherry that carries a brightness through the mid-palate before a finish hinting at a dusting of cocoa.”
Washington Tasting Room Magazine - 92 points (“Outstanding”) (Review)
“Polished, with energetic structure supporting fragrant blackberry and steeped red current accented with forest floor and a hint of plum. A firm edge of tannins arches around the graceful finish with underlying power.” Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon $32
2022 Carmenère
2025 Savor Northwest Wine Competition - “Best of Class”, 97 points (Review)
“This Columbia Valley Carmenere presents bold aromas that are a combination alluding to dark fruit, bell pepper, and licorice with hints of pipe tobacco and Sandalwood. On the palate, it delivers rounded flavors of concentrated black plum balanced by bright notes of blackberry and plum skin that blend with a gravelly minerality and notes of dark chocolate on the mid-palate before a finish hinting at graphite.”
2022 Mourvèdre
2024 Pacific Northwest Wine Competition - Double Gold, 95 Points
The Wine Panel - 92 Points in the $25-$35 Category
“Think wild berries and spice when it comes to the '22 Spruce Hill. While some Mourvedre's have a darker, and more gamey character, this version is lighter, brighter, juicy, and fun. The wine is clean and well-made, with very soft subtle tannins and a nice balance, great for summer barbecues and patio parties.”
2023 Mourvèdre
2025 Pacific Northwest Wine Competition - Gold, 92 points
2023 Sauvignon Blanc
The Wine Panel - 90 Points in the $15-$25 Category
“This is tangy and tart like a good Sauvignon Blanc should be, but without too much acid, common for many similar wines. While some wines from this varietal can be extremely pronounced in the aromatics, this version is very neutral comparatively, and is simply put clean, fresh, and well made.”
2024 Albariño
NV Grenache, columbia Valley
Washington Tasting Room Magazine - 92 pts (“Outstanding”) in a review of Washington-grown Grenache.
“This wine earned a place in our “Editor’s Top Picks” in the Spring 2024 issue of Washington Tasting Room Magazine. Expressive red fruit and savory elements come together in a compact manner, offering juicy raspberry and dark plum backlit by minerally-driven acidity, intricately layered with dried herbs, cured olives and white pepper on the smooth finish.” $26
