Best Buy

Ashlyn Wines 2021 Pinot Gris, Willamette Valley, $20

August 16, 2023 by Great Northwest Wine Leave a Comment

Best Buy! Much of winemaking Bryan Croft’s acclaim came from his years with historic Firesteed in Rickreall, Ore., and he continues to make wine in that facility on behalf of Washington-based Pacific Rim and the Banfi group that bought the winery in 20107. Here, the partnership for the young Ashlyn brand includes L&S Vintners in Napa, and yet, this Pinot Gris is very much … [Read more...] about Ashlyn Wines 2021 Pinot Gris, Willamette Valley, $20

Revelation by Goose Ridge 2022 Rosé, Goose Gap, $18

August 15, 2023 by Great Northwest Wine Leave a Comment

Best Buy! Andrew Wilson’s winemaking team includes Maurine Johnson, and because she spearheads the larger programs at Goose Ridge it’s no surprise that this pinkish salmon rosé drinks so nicely, and at such a price point. The influence of Rhône varieties is obvious — Syrah, Mourvèdre and Grenache — and the two months of lees aging prior to bottling creates a sense of style. … [Read more...] about Revelation by Goose Ridge 2022 Rosé, Goose Gap, $18

Long Shadows Vintners 2022 Julia’s Dazzle Rosé, Columbia Valley $20

July 17, 2023 by Great Northwest Wine Leave a Comment

Best Buy! A perennial favorite, this dry rosé of Pinot Gris is made in the Provençal style and set the standard in the Northwest for this Burgundian variety. Long Shadows founder, the late Allen Shoup, named this for his granddaughter, and winemaker Gilles Nicault — who trained in Provence — makes it beautiful vintage after vintage. Light and refreshing aromas of lime, white … [Read more...] about Long Shadows Vintners 2022 Julia’s Dazzle Rosé, Columbia Valley $20

Boomtown by Dusted Valley 2021 Chardonnay, Washington State, $18.99

July 15, 2023 by Great Northwest Wine Leave a Comment

Best Buy! On occasion, Corey Braunel and Chad Johnson will work on their Boomtown wines in Walla Walla, that's case with this Chardonnay, which they've historically sourced from sites including The Cliffs Vineyard in the Horse Heaven Hills near McNary Dam and Two Gun in the Columbia Basin. This is delightfully drinkable and crisp from start to finish, opening with fun aromas of … [Read more...] about Boomtown by Dusted Valley 2021 Chardonnay, Washington State, $18.99

Browne Family Vineyards 2022 Bitner Estate Grenache Rosé, Columbia Valley, $19.99

July 15, 2023 by Great Northwest Wine Leave a Comment

Best Buy! This red Rhône variety is among the most expensive to work with in Washington state, yet it does produce some of the region's top rosés. Many are priced higher than this bottling by John Freeman and his Waterbrook team in Walla Walla, who benefit from Precept family sites Canyon Vineyard Ranch and Alder Ridge. Here, the rosé is salmon rather than pink, and the … [Read more...] about Browne Family Vineyards 2022 Bitner Estate Grenache Rosé, Columbia Valley, $19.99
