Windsor Recommends

If you’re into bold, fruit-forward red wines and good values, then you’re going to love Windsor Vineyard’s newest addition - a Cabernet Sauvignon from the Columbia Valley AVA. This is a ripe, lucious Cab perfect for everyday drinking.

About Columbia Valley

Over 11 million acres, this AVA is Washington’s largest, spanning across over a third of the state and into Oregon. Wines sourced from this booming wine region are often characterized by unadulterated fruit flavors and vibrant aromatics, due to the cool growing climate. Some of the other key components that make this a successful appellation are the volcanic and sandy loam soil of the valley, which offers good drainage. This soil is also not high in nutrients, which helps coax the vine to concentrate its resources into the grape clusters, producing higher quality, and more flavorful berries. Vines in this part of the world also require more irrigation, which, in tandem with being located in a rain shadow under the Cascade mountain range, allows for consistent ripening time with less risk of mildew and frost during the hang time. The quality of fruit from the Columbia Valley is indisputably exceptional, with the potential to improve over time as the vines better with age.
