Details

With the help of friends and family, Bill and Bev Fraser planted their vineyard in the spring of 2003.  The Canyon County site, in the new Snake River Valley Appellation, was selected for its steep south facing slope, 2,700 foot elevation and abundant Idaho sunshine.  The vineyard is comprised of three Bordeaux varietals: Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot and we utilize a drip irrigation and a vertical shoot positioning (VSP) trellis system.

Our wines are fermented in small open topped fermenters and aged in new French, American and Hungarian oak barrels for almost two years before bottling. 

                                                                                                   

WE JUST RECEIVED TOP HONORS AT THE OCTOBER 2010 IDAHO WINE COMPETITION BY WINE PRESS NORTHWEST. Our 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon won Best of Show, Best Red Wine and a unanimous Double Gold Medal. This wine is now sold out unfortunately. Our two new releases also won Gold Medals. We are releasing the 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon and (new for us) a 2009 Malbec soon. Both of these remarkable wines are available at the winery now.
