$18.00 per bottle
Description:
The Andrews family has been farming the Horse Heaven Hill since they homesteaded the area. The family farm, Andrews Horse Heaven Ranch, farms a diversity of crops with different family members managing different crops. Rob Andrews has been managing the winegrape sector of the family farm and has proven that their farm may be one of the most interesting places to grow ultra-premium winegrapes. Originally planted in 1980 to Cabernet Sauvignon, expansion happened quickly.
The Chenin Blanc was planted in 1981, making it some of the first Chenin blanc planted in the northwest. Located on ancient soils overlaying solid basalt, their vineyards have an uncommon mix of intensity and finesse and balance. Harvested November 22 with temperatures hovering in the low 20's F this is a true late harvest wine. With loads of good botrytis and frozen grapes these grapes were a true treasure.
