Fall Release 2025
The Wines: A Traditional Box of Elegance
This release includes some of our favorite Cabernet Sauvignons, Syrahs, and Pinot Noir. These are stunning wines that are ready to drink or will reward with time in the cellar. The 2021 vintage has both muscle and restraint, built to age gracefully, which is why we kept these wines under wraps for four years before letting them out into the wild.
This release is packed with 94 and 95-point wines. We’ve never been in the business of chasing 100-point wines. That game usually rewards sheer power, sky-high alcohol, and bottles that knock you over before you finish the first glass. We’re after something different: elegance, finesse, and a sense of place you can taste. Critics seem to like it too, with plenty of 94s and 95s in this release, but that’s just a bonus.

2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley
Dark cherries and kirsch lead the way, supported by silky tannins and a medium body that carries into a long, dusty finish with dried herbal tones. The beautiful 2021 Cab Sauv includes 4% Merlot and was aged for 22 months in 34% new French oak. Washington’s Cabernet vineyards continue to amaze us, producing wines with striking aromatics, structure, and depth.
“…from a selection of high-quality vineyards such as Phinny Hill, Dionysus, and Bacchus. Juicy dark cherry and plum ride alongside moderate, fine-tuned tannins, with a medium-bodied depth to the mid-palate that sings in currant, dried herb, and tobacco leaf.” – 94 Pts, Jeb Dunnuck
2021 Cabernet Sauvignon “Phinny Hill Vineyard”
Phinny Hill Vineyard produces Cabernet that’s serious and structured, yet undeniably elegant. This 100% Cab Sauv is powerful but poised, with intense aromatics. Supple tannins and bright acidity frame vibrant red fruit on the palate, layered with warm spice and sagebrush. It’s where Old World finesse meets New World vitality in all the right ways.
“…defined by its elegance. Bright in red fruit, the acidity sings, freshening the supple tannins that are already well-resolved. With two years in French oak, just 33% new, the wine has a subtle spice character of clove, nutmeg, and black pepper, and is powerfully elegant and lengthy on the finish.” – 94 Pts, Jeb Dunnuck
2021 Pinot Noir “Sojeau Vineyard”
Our love for Pinot Noir led us to the Eola-Amity Hills in the Willamette Valley, where Sojeau Vyd stood out for its vibrancy and complexity. The 2021 bursts with bright red fruit, layered with earthy notes of forest floor, morel mushroom, and a whisper of spice. Elegant yet structured, it’s lifted by firm tannins and racing acidity. An expressive Pinot that shines now and promises even more with time.
“Taking a Syrah-like approach to the winemaking of the Pinot Noir, with gentle extraction and lees contact, it is elegant, with 50% whole-cluster adding wildness and structure. Floral elements of violet and candied licorice accent a light-bodied core of strawberry, cardamom, and dried herb.” – 94 Pts, Jeb Dunnuck
2020 Syrah Walla Walla
Combining Syrah from the Rocks with fresh, higher-elevation hillside fruit creates a wine of power and beauty. Intended to be an everyday drinker, it is one of the best Syrah values in Washington and beyond. Co-fermented with 3% Viognier in concrete at 70% whole cluster and aged in neutral oak puncheons.
“The components, Holy Roller, Les Collines, and Forgotten Hills, are all first class [and] yield a finished wine that is emblematic of the Walla Walla character. It’s juicy, tangy, spicy and youthful, with citrus, rhubarb, strawberry and blood orange as well as more typical hints of tobacco and pepper.” – 92 Pts, Paul Gregutt
2021 Syrah “Holy Roller Vineyard” MTA Exclusive
Holy Roller Vineyard delivers classic Rocks character with savory, earthy, and wild notes, wrapped in an elegant, velvet-textured frame and balanced by mouth-watering acidity. True to Gramercy’s style, this wine channels power through restraint, freshness, and finesse. Wine Club Exclusive.
“The 2021 Syrah Holy Roller is the producer’s spin on The Rocks District, co-fermented with 5% Viognier. Made in a food-friendly, light-bodied style, it spent 21 months in 9% new French oak (mostly 500-liter puncheon) with 45% whole-cluster inclusion. Juicy, tart red fruit rides a delicate frame of tension and lifted acidity.” – 95 Pts, Jeb Dunnuck
