Vineyard 10
Overlooking the Columbia River sits Vineyard 10,
one of the original Columbia Crest estate vineyards that consistently produce
exceptional fruit. The Two Vines Vineyard 10 wines are a tribute to this special
place.
Growing Season
- The mild winter allowed the vines to remain in good shape throughout the cold
months.
- In May, one to two weeks before bloom, temperatures spiked to 100 degrees for
about a week.
- The heat spike led to a smaller canopy which allowed for more light penetration,
and contributed to good flavor development in the fruit. The hot temperatures
also contributed to smaller berries with concentrated flavors.
- During fruit set the weather conditions were favorable and the summer saw mild
to average temperatures.
- Veraison started 10 days ahead of average. At the beginning of harvest,
temperatures were moderate, and weather was ideal for harvest.
Vineyards
Columbia Valley vineyards are seated east of the Cascade Mountain range. Up to 14,000 feet high, the mountains effectively block eastward-moving wet weather systems from the Pacific Ocean.
Just 6-8 inches of rainfall reach the growing region annually. Vineyards are 100% drip irrigated.
The soils have low fertility and low water-holding capacity, allowing precise control of vine growth patterns.
Vineyard 10 is the largest single estate vineyard in Washington state with some of the oldest vineyards in the Columbia Valley.
The vineyard is situated along the banks of the Columbia River; this positioning is a unique feature that allows both white and red grapes to flourish.
