"An Afternoon on Red Mountain at Hightower"
The Red Mountain AVA is the smallest in the state, but it produces grapes for some of the most sought-after wines in Washington State. Wines from Red Mountain have achieved worldwide acclaim. You can find out more about the AVA and taste some wines when we visit family-owned Hightower Cellars. Tim and Kelly Hightower are co-winemakers and co-owners of Hightower Cellars Winery and Vineyard. They are focused on making balanced wines of elegance, depth, and complexity.
Upon arriving at Hightower, you will be given a pour of the newly released 2022 Murray Rosé. This is a seriously delicious, full-flavored rosé with a beautiful coral color. You can take this wine with you while we visit the adjacent vineyard to see what is happening there at this time of year. Following that, we will go to the barrel room for a barrel sample of Cabernet Sauvignon. After the vineyard and barrel room, we will be seated at tables on the grassy picnic area for wine and food. Your repast will include a cheese plate with 2020 Merlot; short rib flatbread with 2019 Murray Syrah and 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon; and chocolate brownies with 2019 “Out of Line” Estate Red. The Estate Red, a Bordeaux blend, is 100% from Hightower’s Out of Line Vineyard, which is one of the Red Mountain vineyards becoming famous for producing world-class wines.
