Walla Walla is a wine region within Columbia Valley that straddles both Oregon and Washington. Wine-making began in the mid-1800s, when an influx of pioneers, many of them Italian immigrants, who first settled in the area for the burgeoning fur trade and the Idaho gold rush. Though the commercial wine industry didn’t catch on in the region until the 1950s when the Pesciallo family established Blue Mountain Vineyards, the first in the region since the Prohibition.

Another nice Merlot from Northstar. Less structured than the 2007.....But so smooth....especially as the wine opens. Lots of notes of cigar box and spice on the nose and palate. Super easy to drink and very well balanced as usual! Cheers! Read More
