Spring Barrel Weekend: The Cabernet Showdown

  • April 24 @ 11:00 am - April 26 @ 5:00 pm
  • Thurston Wolfe Winery

The Cabernet Showdown: Red Mountain vs. Horse Heaven Hills

TWO BARRELS. TWO TERROIRS. ONE WINNER.

Join us in the cellar for an exclusive head-to-head exploration of Washington’s most iconic AVAs. We’ve hand-selected two exceptional, evolving Cabernet Sauvignons pulled directly from the barrel for you to compare:

  • Red Mountain: Known for intense heat and rocky soils—yielding bold structure, concentrated dark fruit, and firm tannins.

  • Horse Heaven Hills: Shaped by persistent winds and deep silt-loam—offering refined acidity, vibrant red fruit, and a silky finish.

Taste the contrast, cast your vote, and help us crown the winner of the vintage!

🎁 The Grand Prize: The Regional Duo

Help the winemakers evaluate the future of our Cabs and you could take home the best of both worlds! Every guest who submits a “People’s Choice” voting sheet will be entered to win a Two-Bottle Collector’s Set:

Winner will be selected and notified via email on Monday, April 27th. No purchase necessary. Must be 21+.

🌵 The Fan Favorite: PGV Cactus Spritzer

Looking for a refreshing palate cleanser? After your cellar tour, head to the patio for our signature PGV Wine Spritzer. Featuring our crisp Thurston Wolfe PGV blend and a splash of vibrant cactus liquor, it’s the bright, bubbly fan-favorite of the weekend! 🍹
