Cost: $65 ++
The Milbrandts are celebrating nearly two decades of 90-point wines. Their Evergreen Vineyard was named "Vineyard of the Year" by Seattle Magazine and over 12 varietals have been awarded "Best Buy" or "Editor's Choice" by Wine Enthusiast magazine. Meet Buck Milbrandt, winemaker at this 5 course dinner fabulously paired with a wide variety of Milbrandt wines.
Milbrandt Vineyards are concentrated in the Wahluke Slope (AVA established in 2006) and the Ancient Lakes of the Columbia Valley, Washington (AVA established in 2012 with the help of Butch). The high elevation (up to 1,475ft) and shallow soils of the Columbia Valley make it an unassuming and distinctly beautiful place to grow grapes. Both growing areas share the same low rainfall and long sunny days during the growing season, yet each area has very distinct terroir. Wahluke Slope is especially ideal for red wines and Ancient Lakes for white wines. Butch is careful about matching the right variety to the right site. Known as some of the best growers in the state, Butch's fruit is amongst the most sought after in Washington.
