About the Tenor Wines

The drive at Tenor is to make world-class wine from the vineyards in Washington. We are very unique. As every wine lover knows, due to the weather of a certain growing year, different vintages produce different classes of wine.  At Tenor we only release a wine when we feel it is world-class. What does this mean? This means, if you were to line up the greatest Merlot's (for example) from 2008, Tenor would be among that list. To this end, we will declassify any wine we don't feel meets that criteria. For this reason, no two vintage releases will see the same line up of wines, because no two years growing seasons are the same. In 2007, it was Merlot and Malbec. In 2008, it is Merlot, Cabernet and Syrah. Our 2009 line up will be announced next spring. This type of standard instills a trust in our label; that what we choose to put it in a Tenor bottle is world-class.
