Silver lake winery released its first vintage in the fall of 1989. In the past fifteen years the winery has grown from 2,000 cases to more than 50,000 cases of hand crafted wine annually. The winery began as the outgrowth of the passion for fine wines shared by three professors at the University of Washington and a local real estate investor. Today, Silver Lake is owned by over 1,200 wine enthusiasts who have pooled their resources together to make Silver Lake one of the state's largest locally owned wineries. Roza hills vineyard, Silver Lake's primary source of grapes, is located In Zillah, Washington, in the heart of the rattlesnake hills AVA. The southern sloping Roza Spice Bowl, as It is sometimes referred to, is situated Between 900 and 1200 feet above sea level. The protected nature of the Roza Spice Bowl gives the Silver Lake winemakers fruit that is consistently ripe and balanced. – Description from Dragac

Two days ago I was writing a message to my favourite superfast gentleman Samuel Trepanier. I immediately thought it would be so great to have a wine like him classy, gentle, intriguing but also strong, fast and mature. Stylish, speaking French and sometimes with the smell of the leather jacket...I went to my little cellar and I saw a bottle ... Read More

Yesterday I was recovering from Monday night. You see, Sandra & I attended a wonderful wine tasting event. For $40 per couple, we joined Nice Legs, Ruth's Chris Steakhouse in Crystal City, and the Crystal City Wine Shop for a tasting of more than 45 different wines poured by winemakers, winery representatives and importers. Here are those fol... Read More

Hi everyone. My wife Sandra and I have been into wine for the past few years and that's led to a few trips to Napa Valley and related areas in 2012 and 2013. We enjoy all wines but reds are our favorites. We hosted our first wine tasting party last night and it was a fun event - sixteen wine lovers trying different wines in a blind tasting. ... Read More

June 2012

As many of my fellow Snoothers know, I'm a big fan of the wines of the Dry Creek Valley and particularly of a few of the winemakers up there. Most of them specialize to a degree in Zinfandel, a grape that has its hard-core fans, but does not get all the recognition of more widely-planted varieties like Cabernet, Syrah, Pinot Noir. A lot of fol... Read More

I know there have been at least one or two conversations about buying wines at Costco, but I happened to catch the one hour documentary about Costco on CNBC, last night. They actually spent a significant portion of the program (8-9 minutes) about wine sales. Here is the thing that blew me away. Apparently, annual wine sales at Costco exceed a... Read More

My little tasting group explored cabernet from the United States for our January event. By no means could I cover every major cab producing AVA, but we did mix it up a bit and plenty of areas were represented. Opinions were widely varied and everyone took their notes/scoresheets home with them, so alas, all I have are my scores. I linked the ... Read More
