The Hunt & Gather represents the pinnacle of Saviah’s winegrowing prowess. Dark ruby colored in the glass. Complex aromas and flavors, of dark fruit, olive tapenade, smoked meat, mingle with notes of cherry compote, ripe berries, umami, and tobacco. The wine's well-integrated tannins provide structure and support, while vibrant acidity keeps the palate refreshed. The flavors are rich and mouth-coating, offering depth, complexity, and elegance with every sip. There's a harmonious balance between fruit, oak, and savory elements, leading to a long and satisfying finish adorned with nuances of dark chocolate and espresso. Enjoy this wine with hearty dishes such as braised short ribs, grilled lamb chops, or gourmet burgers, or savor it on its own as a luxurious indulgence. Cheers! Drink 2025-2045.

The 2021 vintage of THE FUNK Estate Cabernet Sauvignon showcases what a standout year we had in the Walla Walla Valley. The crop was lighter than normal and the berry size smaller, resulting in rich, concentrated wines. In the glass this wine shows a beautiful, dark garnet color. The expressive nose reveals a bouquet of dark cherry and black fruits, including ripe plum, blackberry, and marionberry, enhanced by layers of briny umami, cocoa nibs, and a touch of floral. On the palate, this wine is viscous and velvety, with perfectly ripened fruit flavors harmonizing with fine-grained tannins. Subtle hints of spice add to its complexity, while the long, elegant finish lingers with notes of dark chocolate and a trace of cedar. This full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon has the depth and structure to age gracefully. Best enjoyed from 2026 through 2040.

The 2023 vintage was one to behold. The growing season was remarkable, and the conditions were simply ideal for growing amazing wine in the vineyards. One sip of this beauty and we think you will agree! The 2023 Viognier shows enticing aromas of tangerine, mango, white peach, orange blossom, and crushed stone. Delicious, fresh flavors of zesty citrus and papaya lead to juicy white peach, along with hints of apricot leading to a long fruit forward finish.

The Stones Speak Estate Syrah hails from the esteemed Rocks District, renowned for its unique terroir and distinctive wines. Simply gorgeous in the glass with a deeply colored, opaque purple hue, hinting at its concentration and depth. On the nose, an ensemble of aromas unfolds, with intense notes of seared meat, ripe red fruit, blueberry compote, and crushed violets, underscored by nuances of graphite, and cracked black pepper. Layers of complexity reveal themselves with each swirl, showcasing the wine's pedigree and sense of place. The palate is equally impressive, with a full-bodied, opulent texture and velvety richness. Ripe red and black fruits mingle harmoniously with savory elements of cured meats, olive tapenade, and hints of charred earth, creating a multi-dimensional flavor profile that adds to the wine’s hedonistic charm. The finish is long and lingering and will leave the taster yearning to know more about how the wine acquires these funky, briny, savory characteristics. Drink 2024-2038.

A compelling umami richness takes center stage, framed by rich flavors of cherry, fig, cacao nibs, and cedar, with a luxurious, velvety mouthfeel. The wine is deliciously complex, featuring mouthwatering salinity, silky tannins, and a long, satisfying finish.

The Waterstone Estate Syrah is the newest addition to our family of wines from The Rocks District, and it is simply divine. This wine is nicely balanced with equal fruity and savory components and reveals complex flavors of dark fruit, smoked meat, blueberry, orange peel and pepper. Enjoy this Syrah today, or for even more satisfaction give it some time in the cellar. It will easily age for 12-15 years.
