Gramercy Cellars Description
Walla Walla, located in the Lower East corner of Washington, is a home for world class Cabernet. We created Lower East as a thank you to our customers and industry friends. Our goal was to make a fantastic Cabernet at a fantastic price. This idea began when we asked Dick Beightol at Phinny Hill in the Horse Heaven Hills to plant Cabernet specifically for us. He replied that he had a special gravel outcropping that he would love to plant for us. Phinny Hill is near perfect for Cabernet. It shows red fruit, gravel, herbs, bright acidity and firm tannin. We soon realized this fruit would blend fantastically with our Walla Walla Estate Vineyard and Pepper Bridge blocks. Walla Walla fruit tends to be more blue or black fruit and fills in the mid palate of the blend. Starting in the 2016 vintage, our Octave Estate Vineyard came into play. Located at just over 1300 feet elevation at the southern edge of the Walla Walla AVA. Octave brings complexity and great acidity to the wine. The 2019 Lower East Cabernet Sauvignon is 50% Phinny Hill, 25% Pepperbridge, and 25% Gramercy Estate Vineyards. The 2019 Cabernet is a blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Merlot, and 1% Petit Verdot. It was aged for 17 months in 28% new French oak, with the remainder in older French barrels.
