Passing Time
Here is the thrilling new Passing Time ‘Block 1311’ Cabernet Sauvignon (OB, 100) which is a perfect wine made in this electric vintage. It was a beautiful Wednesday evening and I was seated at the table with Passing Time co-founder Damon Huard and winemaker Chris Peterson. We chatted NFL and Husky football as we tasted through the thrilling lineup of 2024 wines. “’24 is going to be a really great vintage” said Peterson, as he described this warm vintage with few heat spikes. “I think you are going to see amazing quality across the board” he said as we tasted the amazing future release wines. Over time Passing Time has gained prominence for producing some of the best Merlot in Washington state. “I think this is our best Merlot” said Damon and I have to agree that this 2024 is up there with the finest Merlot wines in the state. What began with the 2012 vintage, Passing Time is now been in business for more than a decade. I was amazed by the new lineup. I tasted these wines on two occasio

Quilceda Creek Acquires Full Ownership of Champoux Vineyard
Big news out of Washington today as Quilceda has now acquired full ownership of the famed Champoux Vineyard. Today we share the news that Quilceda Creek has purchased the remaining shares of the famed Champoux Vineyard. This is one of the state’s most iconic and historically significant sites. Located in the Horse Heaven Hills AVA, Champoux Vineyard is recognized globally for its distinctive terroir and for producing some of the world’s most sought-after Cabernet Sauvignons—powerful wines known for their gorgeous fruit, balanced acidity and elegant tannins. Originally planted in the early 1970s and 80s, Quilceda Creek has sourced fruit from Champoux since 1986 and has gradually increased its ownership over the last 30 years, previously acquiring a 79% stake in August 2021.

Whisky Review: BenRiach 10 Year "The Original Ten" Speyside Single Malt Scotch
When it comes to Speyside single malts, we usually expect delicate, fruity profiles that showcase the region's signature style. But as we found out last week with Benromach 10, some Speysides pack an unexpected smoky punch. This week, we turn our attention to BenRiach 10 Year "The Original Ten" , another Speyside whisky that promises its own unique twist. Clocking in at 43% ABV (86 proof) and aged for 10 years , this single malt positions itself as a classic Speyside with a hint of complexity. But does it hold its own against its regional peers? Let’s dive in and see how BenRiach 10 Year fares across our categories. This review is taken from our episode " Inside Out (2015) / BenRiach 10-Year ." Click the link to listen to this review in audio format. Nose Bob: Right off the bat, I’m getting a lot of fresh raisin on this—specifically the kind you get from white grapes.
