The aromas announce themselves with notes of peat, funk, potpourri, crushed rock, purple flowers, sea salt, umami, strawberry and olive, showing layers of complexity. The flavors are simultaneously rich and elegant.
Reviews:
- Wine Advocate: Brilliantly defined dark cherry notions with aromas of rose hip and black spice tones sashay out of the glass. Nuances of dusty leather and wild strawberry float on top of the glass with red floral bouquet aromas.
- Wine Enthusiast: The aromas announce themselves with notes of peat, funk, potpourri, crushed rock, purple flowers, sea salt, umami, strawberry and olive, showing layers of complexity. The flavors are simultaneously rich and elegant, crashing across the palate in waves.
Producer Information
No Girls Wines was originally founded as a collaboration between Cayuse Vineyards’ owner and vigneron Christophe Baron and general manager Trevor Dorland. As the project has evolved, we are very pleased to include other Cayuse employees including Cayuse assistant vigneronnes Elizabeth Bourcier and Laura Pursley, and controller Nancy Nestler. These team members prove that No Girls represents an appreciative nod to one of Walla Walla’s richest and most colorful eras—it doesn’t literally mean no girls. It means that by creating wines true to our valley, we’re celebrating our history. The grapes come from the Cayuse La Paciencia vineyard, which means patience—appropriate since the project was ten years in the making. The vines are tightly spaced and planted on an angle, giving No Girls a personality all its own.
