The Latin phrase that translates to “why not?” makes sense for having received a Platinum considering that Woodinville Warehouse District winemaker Greg Peiker’s GSM-inspired blend — Amore — featured Mourvèdre and also won a Platinum. The Oct. 16 pick from Joe Hattrup’s Sugarloaf Vineyard yielded aromas and flavors of red rose petals, President plum, toasted allspice and nectarine. Qualifying award: Seattle Wine Awards (gold)
