Goose Ridge is a small family owned estate winery dedicated to handcrafting limited quantities of exquisite Bordeaux and Rhone varietal wines from Goose Ridge Estate Vineyards. Vireo is their finest expression of the art. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah, this wine is named for an incredible song bird of outstanding strength and character.
The screened bottle uses gold foil to express the premium quality of this wine. The Vireo sits on a wire that completely encircles the bottle, a mark that Boxwood developed to symbolize that it is a wine made by consulting winemaker Charlie Hoppes.
The release of Vireo was celebrated with an inside cover ad, picture below, in Wine Press Northwest Magazine. |
