The Des Marais family settled and farmed in the Moxee Valley near Yakima, WA in the late 1800’s. Here, the family helped establish hops as a major crop for the area and the extended family still farms today. These early French Canadian families brought their traditions and sense of hard work to build a beautiful farming community minutes from our Yakima Valley winery.

TASTING NOTES
72% Merlot, 28% Cabernet Sauvignon
This blend of mostly Cabernet comes from three distinct vineyards in the Yakima Valley and it shows, bursting with aromas of dark, ripe cherries and baking spice. The first sip slides past the front of your tongue and lingers on the back with a medium to high tannin structure. Flavors of raspberry tart and dried pepper hit all parts of your mouth and are followed by a juicy finish.VINEYARD NOTES
