    Winemaker Notes

    Established in 1957 by Otis Harlan, Otis Vineyard is one of the most celebrated vineyards in Washington. Located in the Yakima Valley on the lower slopes of the Rattlesnake Hills, Otis boasts the oldest Cabernet Sauvignon planting in the state. The vineyard contracts exclusively with Columbia Winery.

    Columbia Winery's longstanding relationship with Ois Vineyard began in 1979, when the old-vine Cabernet Sauvignon formed the backbone of the Millennium Cabernet. Winemaker David Lake first produced a single vineyarddesignated wine from Otis with the 1981 release of Cabernet Sauvignon. Today, Lake continues to create award-winning Otis Vineyard designated – Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay – both wines from the highly acclaimed David Lake Signature Series.

    Deep ruby red color. Ripe black currant, blueberries and fine herb flavors. The palate shows of ripe, sweet fruit and velvety tannins. Smooth and full-bodied with excellent lingering finish and elegance.

    Columbia Winery was the first premium winery in Washington and the first in the state to produce vineyard-designate wines. Columbia Winery was founded in 1962 by ten friends, six of whom were University of Washington professors. Originally known as Associated Vintners, the group was united in the belief that vines could survive the harsh Washington winters and that fine wine could be made in Washington state.

    Having worked alongside founding winemaker and Master of Wine, David Lake, Kerry Norton now oversees the Columbia Winery winemaking, handcrafting Riesling, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah sourced from the Columbia and Yakima Valleys.

    A noble variety bestowed with both power and concentration, Cabernet Sauvignon enjoys success all over the globe, its best examples showing potential to age beautifully for decades. Cabernet Sauvignon flourishes in Bordeaux's Medoc where it is often blended with Merlot and smaller amounts of some combination of Cabernet Franc, Malbecand Petit Verdot. In the Napa Valley, ‘Cab’ is responsible for some of the world’s most prestigious, age-worthy and sought-after “cult” wines. Somm Secret—DNA profiling in 1997 revealed that Cabernet Sauvignon was born from a spontaneous crossing of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc in 17th century southwest France.

    Columbia Valley, Washington

    As the first recognized wine-growing region in the Pacific Northwest, Yakima Valley is centrally located within Washington’s vast Columbia Valley. The region also includes Washington’s oldest Cabernet Sauvignon vines, Otis Vineyard, planted in 1957, and Harrison Hill Vineyard, planted in 1963. Yakima Valley contains three smaller sub-regions: Rattlesnake Hills, Red Mountain, and Snipes Mountain and is ideal for both red and white wine production. In fact, Yakima Valley is Washington’s most diverse region, boasting more than 40 different grape varieties over about one hundred miles.

    The cooler parts of the valley are home to almost half of the Chardonnay and Riesling produced in the state! Both are made in a wide range of styles depending on the conditions of the vineyard site.

    But its warmer locations yield a large proportion of Washington’s best Merlot, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon. The finest Yakima Valley reds are jam-packed full of red cherry, currant, raspberry or blackberry fruit, as well as cocoa, herb, spice and savory notes, and exhibit a supple texture, great body, focus and length.
