2020 Set Piece
Crafted from 55% Syrah and 45% Grenache grown at Boushey Vineyards in the Yakima Valley AVA, our 2020 Set Piece showcases the elegance and balance this renowned vineyard is known for. Aromas of vibrant strawberries, perfumed cherries, anise, and warm spice lead into layers of pomegranate, ripe plum, red berries, sweet tobacco, and savory herbs. Silky, polished tannins carry the wine to a long, graceful finish with exceptional freshness, finesse, and balance.

Boushey Vineyards in the Yakima Valley AVA is one of Washington's most respected vineyard sites, particularly for Rhône varieties. Rising to nearly 1,400 feet, its silt loam and windblown loess soils over fractured basalt, combined with cool nights and extended hang time, produce fruit with vibrant aromatics, natural acidity, and exceptional balance. Those characteristics shine through in Set Piece, giving the wine freshness, elegance, and refined structure.
