    Winemaker Chuck Reininger
    Chuck's goal is to capture and enhance the essence of each vintage by exposing its terroir - that is, the physical and non-physical elements of the vineyard habitat. The true concept of the meaning is not easily grasped by most. The French define it as the vine, the subsoil, siting, drainage, microclimate as well as the spiritual aspects of the vineyard's history. Chuck feels that you must always be aware of these factors when making wine. "Wine is a reflection of everything that's happened to the grapes, a time capsule, I enjoy bringing out the flavors locked in the grapes and making them shine."

    2005 Helix Merlot
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley
  • Winemaker: Chuck Reininger
  • Bright, sophisticated, easy to get along with, and the center of engaging conversation - Who wouldn’t want to escort this gorgeous, dark, handsome beauty wrapped on their arm to any lively dinner party? Desirous luscious black cherry, almost too ripe cantaloupe, soft round shoulders, hints of pencil shaving spice, with a beautifully round finish. If not for her elegance, the catty amongst us might misconstrue her somewhat acidic forward attitude for a petite, flirtatious tart.

    2005 Merlot
  • Appellation: Walla Walla Valley
  • Winemaker: Chuck Reininger
  • Why does Chuck find a little pencil in his wine? This Merlot is no exception, and another thing that’s really nice Is the dash of cedar wood spice. The faint smell of earth and dusty cocoa would make anyone happily loco...

    2006 Helix Merlot
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley
  • Winemaker: Chuck Reininger
  • Lush and luscious, merlot fans are going to love this wine. The swanky aromas of oak spice, smoke and currants blend gracefully with fresh cigar tobacco and carmel apple. Well structured with firm tannins, the taste of juicy black berries and vanilla is a wonderful precursor to the rich, full bodied finish of chocolate

    2005 Helix Sangiovese
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley
  • Winemaker: Chuck Reininger
  • If I didn’t know better, I’d say Chuck wrapped Sophia Loren up in a caramel-drizzled raspberry tort, lightly spritzed her with Victoria’s Secret Rapture perfume, and coaxed her into this bottle with a bouquet of exotic flowers. And while inside, she magically transformed herself into Rachel Ray and created a fruity feast of homemade strawberry licorice and spicy Mexican Chocolate cookies with an extra dash of vanilla. Divine. -Jennifer El... ...read more

    2005 Ash Hollow Vineyard Syrah
  • Appellation: Walla Walla Valley
  • Winemaker: Chuck Reininger
  • No need to roll over and reach for the proverbial cigarette when there's a healthy alternative. This seductive syrah has all the classic varietal trappings including the smoke! Ripe, u-pick blueberries surrounded by a garden of violets and lavender on a damp early morning where the warmth of mother earth rises to embrace the lingering smoke of an extinguished wood-fire stove ingratiating the palate with alluring, velvety tannins. Got a match?

    2005 Helix Pomatia
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley
  • Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Syrah
  • Winemaker: Chuck Reininger
  • Out of the press with currant affairs. You don't need to write this down because the nose is already scribed by pencil and currant, that with time, develops into berries with coffee followed by chocolate. The body of the article accentuates rhubarb, plum and cherry paralleled by fine tannins. Its versatile profile pairs well with spaghetti to fillet mignon. In closing, Betty and Bob, Pomatia is a step up in red wine without stepping in red ink.

    2006 Helix SoRho (Library Selection)
  • Appellation: Columbia Gorge
  • Unspecified
  • Winemaker: Chuck Reininger
  • Spicy and wild, this wine will have you howling at the harvest moon in no time. Your primitive Hunter instincts will be tickled awake by the whiff of crushed stones, red berries, roses, and something deliciously gamey. Rich, round and smooth with fine tannins and bright acid, the taste of pomegranate might be enough to tame the beast, but the kick of massive spice, very dark chocolate and fine espresso flavors packs a bigger punch than Beowulf.
