Mount Baker Vineyards 2007 Barrel Select Pinot Gris (Yakima Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $13
This easygoing, fruit-forward take on Pinot Gris is styled for immediate enjoyment. The fruit is ripe and flavorful—a nice mix of fresh cut pear and apple, with a hint of orange peel giving it a little stiffness and tannin. The blend includes Siegerrebe, Gewürztraminer and Viognier, and the alcohol is listed at just over 13%, so this is a perfect wine for a spring…

Mount Baker Vineyards 2008 Barrel Select Chardonnay (Yakima Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $13
Simple and fruity, this is a pleasant, easy-drinking table wine. The Barrel Select designation does not mean oaky.

Mount Baker Vineyards 2008 Gewürztraminer (Red Mountain)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
Red Mountain is not especially known for its Gewürztraminer other than the late harvest wines from Kiona. Here it has been blended with 12% Marsanne, resulting in a spicy, off-dry (1.4 residual sugar), rather yeasty wine.

- Online Exclusive
- $14
There is no lack of oak barrel scents and accents here—chocolate and toast, layered around light strawberry fruit.

Mount Baker Vineyards 2007 Proprietor’s Limited Release Marsanne (Yakima Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
This blend of Marsanne, Viognier and Roussanne has a sweaty note and does not show the fruit ripeness that one would hope for. It’s rather generic, lightly lemony, and just a little off-putting with that stale, sweaty character lingering into the finish.

- Online Exclusive
- $14
