Time
is the master in creating the premium wines that bear the Oakwood
Cellars label.
The perfectly balanced Washington State grapes we select for our wines are among the world's finest.
From
the day our grapes are harvested until the moment we
hand-bottle each of our wines, up to three years may have passed.
We require that time to ensure our maturing wines will ultimately
impart the luxurious aroma and exquisite flavor every true
connoisseur seeks.
Red wines are
slowly aged in small oak barrels until they reach the epitome of
rich flavor. Sweet wines are fermented slowly to bring out their
enticing fruit flavors.
