HOW THEY ARE Through the twenty years that he has been making wines in Washington State, Mike Scott has doggedly sourced the finest fruit from the Yakima and Columbia Valleys. At Lone Canary he continues his quest to procure grapes which best express the characteristics of fragrance and flavor which only Yakima Valley and Columbia Valley fruit can show.
WHY THEY ARE In Mike's words "I want Lone Canary wines to combine the wonderful expressiveness of Washington State grapes with the depth and elegance of wines made in an Old World style." Because of this, Lone Canary offers five red varietals: two Italian, three French, reflective of different regional styles, as well as limited production specialties.
WHAT THEY ARE
2006 Barbera:
The Barbera grape is traditionally grown in Northern Italy,
and here in Washington at Milbrandt Vineyards in the Wahluke Slope.

This love affair continues and he is very happy to still be crafting a Sauvignon Blanc in the style for which he is renowned. For now, this is our only white varietal. 
2006 Sauvignon Blanc:
100% Sauvignon Blanc processed entirely in stainless steel for a crisp, fruity, completely dry style.
