Tucked into the southwest corner of the Walla Walla AVA, as the name implies, there is a hill at Cougar Hills. The elevation averages 800 feet at the base and rises to 845 at the top of the hill. The slope of the hill faces north, which in the summertime is facing the sun.

Jaine
2023 Jaine Thunderstone Rose – The 2023 started with a delayed bud break in late April. Even heat throughout the growing season allowed optimum ripeness. The Grenache was harvested on September 30, 2023, and was pressed with minimal skin contact. The pressed juice was cold-tank settled and fermented in a stainless tank. The tank temperatures were kept low to preserve the varietal characteristics of the fruit and the production of esters. Fermentation was around fourteen weeks, long and slow. Once fermentation was complete, the tank was racked, and the lees were stirred for one week. Aging was on the fine lees for ten weeks before bottling on March 12, 2024. Only 1229 cases produced.
The 2023 Jaine Columbia Valley Rosé is a 50/50 blend of Grenache and Mourvèdre from Ravenscliff vineyard in the Columbia Valley AVA of Washington State. The site is farmed using sustainable practices. Grapes are harvested in the cooler, early morning hours to capitalize on the diurnal shift, which provides acidity and freshness. The wine was cold settled in tank, and a cool temperature was maintained to preserve the fresh fruit characteristics. The lots were fermented in stainless steel for six weeks and then aged in stainless steel barrels on the lees for 6 months. Bottled in March of 2024. Only 2,200 cases produced.

2023 RISIBILITY (Rosé of Mourvèdre): This RISIBILITY is made the same as prior vintages, 100% Mourvèdre from the Sugarloaf Vineyard in the Rattlesnake Hills AVA. It was whole cluster, direct press, and vinified in stainless steel.
It is a bit more delicate and nuanced than past vintages. You can see this straight away from how the pale pink color shimmers in the glass. It has a delicate nose of juicy pink grapefruit and floral aromas. It leads with notes of grapefruit, strawberry, and passion fruit on the front palette and finishes with slightly savory, herbal and fennel notes on the back palette and, maybe, just a hint of orange creamsicle. It smells, tastes, and feels like a seaside breeze wafting over Provencal flower garden.
