K Vintners Winery

 

K Vintners

Located at the base of the Blue Mountains in Walla Walla, Washington, K Vintners opened its doors to the public in December 2001 on property homesteaded in 1853 with the adjacent farmhouse built in 1872. K Vintners’ first release was 330 cases of 1999 K Syrah Walla Walla Valley. K Vintners produces small lots of single vineyard syrahs and field blends that are hand-picked, foot-stomped, fermented with naturally occurring yeasts and basket pressed. After the devastating freeze in 2004, the Magnificent Wine Company was developed as a source of “wine for the people” resulting in the phenomenally successful House Wine. In the fall of 2006, a majority of the MWC was sold to Washington State-based Precept Brands. The first Charles Smith Wines were released in the spring of 2007. Charles Smith Wines: the Modernist Project focuses on the way people generally consume wine today, immediately! Wine in this category is typically either simple, or a wine that would be much better a few years down the road. Charles Smith Wines are wines that are about putting as much into the bottle as possible. The intent is to create wines to be enjoyed now, but with typicity of variety (i.e., merlot that tastes like merlot) and to the vineyard (wine that tastes like where it was grown). The wines are full of flavor, balanced, and true to place of origin.
