100% Syrah from Naches Heights. This 2021 syrah is an excellent flavor rich example of how a specific vintage can shape the character of a finished wine. Naches Heights battled forest fires this year and as a result there is a pleasing hint of alder and hickory atop the usual raspberry acidity and blackberry pie flavor profile. We hope this piece of wine history inspires and treats you well as you share with your friends & family.

Vineyard Notes
The Strand Vineyard sits up in Naches Heights at 1900 ft in elevation. This is likely some of the highest elevation Syrah you will experience in Washington State. It shows through in the complexity of flavor and natural acidity.
Production Notes
In the spirit being a bit healthier, conscious and intentional about what we consume in the world all of our currently available wines go through a rigorous production protocol aiming to eliminate physiological issues with red wine consumption not related to alcohol. We Intentionally Source our Fruit. We use ORGANIC/SUSTAINABLE Vineyards using regenerative farming practices and have ZERO tolerance for glyphosate(Round-Up) use. We select our yeasts intentionally to mitigate myco-toxin, mold growth and produce low to zero amounts of Histamine. Yeast inoculation timing is also important. Wines are ADDITIVE FREE and 100% VEGAN. Absolutely no animal products are used for fining or otherwise. NO ADDITIVES or enzymes are used to augment protein stability, flavor, mouthfeel, aroma, texture, or color. Our wines are fermented to "Dry" as in SUGAR FREE, and no other forms of sugar are added ever. Sulfites are used sparingly having a target of 35-50ppm for anti-oxidative effect and age-ability. All WHITE AND RED WINES are FILTERED to .2 microns for biological stability. Our medical grade micro-filtration system removes, Pollens, Molds & Spores, all other Bacteria, Wood Burning Particles, Dust Mites, Insecticide Dusts and more. We have worked very hard to develop and bring our products to market with this protocol. We hope you can enjoy our wines comfortably and as always please drink responsibly.
