Glass Mountain Cab is a gem of a wine that spells value and quality. Each barrel is hand-crafted by our dedicated family of employees to create a wine of depth with generous Cabernet flavors accented by the spice and flesh of Syrah.

Kings Ridge Pinot Gris
Oregon
From the Winery website: Our goal with the Kings Ridge Pinot Gris is to make a more richly textured white wine with lush acidity. We carefully choose vineyards in cool parts of the Willamette Valley that have significant daily temperature swings. We believe this helps to give ripeness and concentration to the fruit while preserving freshness and vibrant acidity. The Kings Ridge Oregon Pinot Gris has lemon verbena, green tea and citrus rind in the aromatics. The mouth is vibrant and light, with juicy citrus fruits framed by good acidity in its long finish.
