Barnard Griffin's Tulip label wines are some of Washington's most easily recognized wines. Our Tulip label was introduced in 1983 and our Tulip Label wines are now distributed nationally. Our Reserve wines are crafted in very limited quantities from the best vineyard lots in the region. Due to the limited production of these wines, we suggest purchasing your favorite varietals while they are still available.
2007 Reserve
Rose of Sangiovese
This Rose won the Sweepstakes Award/Best of Class from the 2008 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition. This makes the fourth such award that Barnard Griffin has received at prestigious wine competitions for its Roses in the last three years.
Impressive, assertive aromatic profile of strawberries and floral notes with hints of gooseberry, peach and apricot aromas. Mouth-filling grapefruit, strawberry and raspberry fruit dances on the tongue. Dry, crisp, refreshing and beautifully textured. Stock up for those hot summer days on the deck or by the pool. Our Rose always sell out quickly!
2007 Reserve
Viognier
Pear, lime-laced nose, revealing hints of ginger and cantaloupe. Very refreshing attack of candied apricots and pear fruit. Glassy texture, nicely supported by snappy acidity. A very well-balanced, satisfying dry white wine; stellar as a stand-alone, or try it with cheese plates and mildly flavored appetizers.
