8 Year Reserve Brandy
Aged to the Summit

Crafted from rare white grape varietals and patiently aged in oak barrels, this reserve brandy represents the height of what time and intention can create.

Every barrel was hand-selected and blended to achieve a beautifully balanced 88 proof expression that is smooth, layered, and endlessly expressive.

This is not a brandy that rushes to impress. It unfolds slowly, with grace and depth that only long aging can deliver.

YAKIMA

The Yakima Terroir: A Masterpiece of Climate & Soil

Located in Yakima, Washington on the same parallel as Bordeaux, our brandy is a true expression of place.

 

Less than six inches of rainfall annually, irrigated by Cascade snowmelt for flavor concentration

 

Ancient volcanic and Missoula flood soils layered over basalt bedrock

 

European varietals grown on their own rootstock due to pest-resistant soils and cold winters

 

Dramatic diurnal shifts that intensify varietal aromatics
