RUSTIC • FRUITY • FOOD FRIENDLY

Planted along the banks for the Columbia River, at the southern tip of Horse Heaven Hills AVA, Alder Ridge Vineyard’s site selection is second to none. Benefiting from the warmer continental climate of Columbia Valley’s growing season, but with cooling effects from the proximity of the river, high winds from the gorge, and large drops in nighttime temperatures- creates a beautiful balance of enough heat to optimally ripen, but cool enough to retain the fruit’s vibrancy. 

This wine was made to capture the old-school, traditional Italian style of Sangiovese. It was produced using two yeast strains selected by the Consorzio del Vino Brunello de Montalcino in Tuscany. Each yeast driving classic Sangiovese notes of bright red fruit and a complex array of leather, tobacco and iron. Bone dry, this wine drinks silky smooth with medium body and tannin, but brings fresh acidity to liven the palate, making the red fruit burst. Enjoying this wine is a must with classic Italian dishes- spaghetti, lasagna, veal and roasted portabella mushrooms. Recommended drinking window 5-8 years.
