100% Chardonnay
This classic Washington State Chardonnay hails from Olsen Vineyard, one of the state’s premier vineyards. This is a high elevation, cool site that sits at an elevation of 1,110 feet – 1,350 feet.

We make wines we like to drink. That’s why we are growing grapes and making wine in Washington State. Old world structure, funk and earthiness meet the always bright new world fruit. This wine is a true celebration of Washington State terroir. Stone Tree Mourvédre serves as the backbone to this big, bold blend and is a truly delicious expression of Stone Tree Vineyard itself. Drink some and express yourself!
2022 Tall Tales Syrah – Stoney Vine Vineyard Estate, Walla Walla Valley
100% Syrah
Named after Corey’s Grandpa Fred and his famous “tall tales,” this Estate grown and produced bottling of Syrah exemplifies what the Rocks District of Milton Freewater is all about – earthy, gamey, aromatic and concentrated with a medium body. Whether it was Grandpa Fred’s heroics on the river as a young boy or the mighty bears he slayed in the big woods, his stories were always fascinating. Perhaps that’s what inspired Corey to become a winemaker — every bottle of wine is a new story waiting to be told!
2021 Malbec – Southwind Vineyard Estate, Walla Walla Valley
