Readers looking for classic, age-worthy Washington state Bordeaux blends need look no further than this terrific estate.

More fresh and lively than the Ciel du Cheval, the 2014 Champoux Vineyard has sensational purity in its lifted bouquet of cassis, black raspberries, violets and spring flowers. There's a touch of graphite that develops with time in the glass; it has fine, polished tannin and an elegant, silky texture. It doesn't have the heft of the Ciel du Cheval but shines for its purity and elegance.

Readers looking for classic, age-worthy Washington state Bordeaux blends need look no further than this terrific estate. As always, they release a few appellation blends (Esploso and Sorella) and numerous single vineyard wines (Champoux, Ciel du Cheval, Mays’ and Two Blondes). The wines show singular characters and have broad drink windows.

We make the Champoux blend not just because we are such big fans of the vineyard, but because of the way that Merlot and Cabernet Franc shine from this site. This wine is the alter ego to Sorella. We almost always craft this wine with a nod towards a majority Cab Franc or Merlot in this case. This wine allows us to show the full range of Champoux Vineyard. The 2016 Vintage in Washington State started out quick during the spring, but in early June the weather returned to normal and thus lead to a start date of September 12th for picking. Harvest continued until October 25th with Cabernet Sauvignon from Two Blondes vineyard coming in. Right away we saw the high potential of the fruit and how this vintage would end up being another great vintage for us.

Andrew Will Vinery Firman startade i mycket liten skala 1989 i en byggnad som knappt kan ses som ett vineri. Det var typ fyra väggar och tak. 1994 flyttade firman till mer ändamålsenliga lokaler i Vashon och åren efter byggde man till anläggningen ytterligare med lagerlokal och utökade även odlingarna en del. Firman har fyra vingårdar, Ciel du Cheval, Champoux och May's Discovery och Two Blondes. Sedan första årgången 1989 har firman förbättrat sina hantverkskunskapar...
