The result is a wine layered with notes of creme bruleé, vanilla, mango, banana peel, and baked pie crust. A thin layer of minerality and acidity lengthen the finish providing a lasting impression of what the Columbia Valley has to offer.

Reviews:

• Wine Enthusiast: Rich aromatics of melted lemon butter with seared scallops should be enough. The wine’s vanilla bean and pineapple aromas are mere bonuses. Even the wine’s mouthfeel is creamy and buttery, with flavors of peaches, mango, toasted filberts and just enough acidity to hold it all together.

• Jeb Dunnuck: The 2021 Chardonnay Columbia Valley is rock-solid, with clean citrus and stone fruits as well as toasted spice, brioche, and honeyed mint-like nuances. It’s balanced, medium-bodied, and has nicely integrated acidity.

Producer Information

Centered in the heart of the Columbia Valley and roughly 50 miles north of Red Mountain and the Yakima Valley sits the Wahluke Slope AVA, a yet to be discovered but dynamic winegrowing region that is producing some of the most exciting wines the state of Washington has to offer. The true depth of a man’s character is often unknowable, but even one conversation was enough to convince me that LUKE was an imitation of no one. He revealed himself slowly, like a freed wind emerging from the shadow of a mountain. Seemingly ordinary at first, but undeniably complex. Bold and determined, but unabashedly generous.
