The Story
Founded in 2002 by Tim and Paige Stevens the Winery’s located in “The Warehouse District” of Woodinville, Washington. We find it hard to believe how fast time flies and that we’re rolling into our 6th year and just celebrated the release of our 19th commercial wine, the 2005 Stevens424, our flagship Red Blend. Our passion is to produce wines that show a distinctive character, specifically focused on the Yakima Valley. We owe much of our success to our growing partners at Dineen, DuBrul, Meek and Sheridan Vineyards. At this time the Winery produces 4 reds and 2 white wines. Our 1st year we produced a miniscule 100 cases of Cabernet Franc and now with the ’07 Crush behind us we should be pushing close to 2500 cases. Scary. With each year, we not only grow, but continue to broaden our knowledge as the vineyards mature and we work with the fruit. We’re excited to be a part of the Washington Wine Industry as it continues to grow and look forward to many more incredible vintages.
2005 STEVENS 424
Everyone’s been asking about the release date for the much anticipated 2005 Stevens424, Yakima Valley Red Wine. Well, it’s available now and can be ordered through your Glazer's Sales Representative at this time.
Here is what they have to say about the wine,
The 3rd 424 release is sure to charm you once again. To our delight, the ‘05 vintage keeps pushing the Cabernet Franc envelope. It’s loaded with 45% Franc, which we love, then layered with 45% Cab Sauv and rounded out with 10% Merlot.This wine represents our passion and focus to create a wine that showcases the wonderful world of Washington Cabernet Franc with its beautiful floral nose and flinty blueberry character. The other half of our mission is, as always, to make the wine balanced from start to finish by adding varietal components to help add depth and dimension. This was accomplished with many thanks to our growing partners at Dineen, DuBrul and Sheridan Vineyards from which we sourced our fruit. The wine was aged 20 months in 50% new and 50% once used French oak from Tonnellerie Demptos, Sylvain and Taransaud. 275 cases produced.
