Willow Crest Winery
Willow Crest Winery was founded in 1995 by David J. Minick, a longtime grape grower in the Yakima Valley. The Minick Family first planted wine grapes on their Roza farm, North of Prosser in 1982. David wanted to take the love he had for raising grapes to the next level by making premium wine out a small portion of the family vineyard.
Focusing on Pinot Gris/Grigio and Syrah, Willow Crest Winery uses estate grown fruit that winemaker David J. Minick planted, cultivated, and harvested to create crisp Pinot Gris and bold Syrah's. By having the control from vine to wine David can monito crop load, canopy size, sun exposure, and the balance of fruit and sugar at harvest time. All this attention to the grape comes out in the Willow Crest wines.
– Description from
Dragac
Nice, crisp nose of green apples. Clean, crisp and with good fruit - excellent value for a $10 wine. Good acidity helps balance out the rich fruit and the menthol spices. Paired very well with a chicken and bacon salad.

Pineapple and honey aromas with a bit of green apple and mango. Quite fresh and sweet flavors, with a bit of spice -- slightly effervescent and a lot of apple cider. Read More

January 2011
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
