Andrew Will Winery was started in 1989 and is owned by Chris Camarda. The winery was launched out of a love for wine that Chris developed while working in the restaurant trade for almost 20 years. Named after his son Will and nephew Andrew, Andrew Will has been a major contributor in putting Washington State on the map as a world-class wine-producing region
.
Winemaker Chris Camarda
Chris Camarda has developed his style of winemaking over the years, he has chosen to focus on the primacy of the vineyard over variety. It is now the driving force behind Andrew Will. While the idea of terroir has become almost a hollow marketing tool, it has great attraction for Chris in its purest form. "I believe that an individual piece of property can form a signature - an identity - and it is that face that is the focus of my winemaking. We are trying to let the vineyards reveal themselves," he says. "I believe that if Washington is ever to be considered a great wine region we need to establish the characteristics of our geographical areas and the characteristics of each vineyard in those areas," he adds.

    2007 Mays Discovery Cabernet Sauvignon
  • Appellation: Horse Heaven Hills
  • Winemaker: Chris Camarda
  • This wine is no wallflower and shows power, depth and body often found in fruit from much older vines. The wine has superb texture, appealing brightness and plenty of cherry and herb flavors. It finishes broadly and with medium length. We feel like it will continue to evolve well into 2012.

    2010 Cabernet Sauvignon
  • Appellation: Columbia Valley

    2009 Sangiovese
  • Appellation: Red Mountain
  • Winemaker: Chris Camarda
  • Andrew Will is one of the few producers making 100% Sangiovese from the Ciel du Cheval Vineyard on Red Mountain. This fully ripened fruit from one of the warmest sites in Washington wine country exhibits varietal notes of red currant and tart cherry. This is a lovely medium bodied wine with rich flavors that mingle with earthy aromas.

    2007 Ciel du Cheval
  • Appellation: Red Mountain
  • Blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon,
  • Winemaker: Chris Camarda
  • The balance between fruit and structure is well played out in this vintage. The classic and austere qualities that this vineyard has each year are well drawn out. As with most American wines, this wine projects more fruit in its youth than its European reflections.

    2009 Ciel du Cheval
  • Appellation: Red Mountain
  • Blend of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot
  • Winemaker: Chris Camarda
  • This wine has a mature ripeness that deftly balances its red fruit palate of red current, plum, cherry, and loganberry. It is a harmonious wine with ripe and generous qualities in the fruit that do not overwhelm the structure due to its fresh acidity.

    2007 Two Blondes
  • Appellation: Yakima Valley
  • Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec
  • Winemaker: Chris Camarda
  • The identity is fully apparent in this vintage through its soft texture and very full mid-palate. The depth of flavor reveals much about this vintage and those we hope to see in the future from Two Blondes. A lot of the work we have done here has been on an almost row-by-row basis as we sought to increase the root structure of the vines.

    2008 Champoux Vineyard
  • Appellation: Horse Heaven Hills
  • Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot
  • Winemaker: Chris Camarda
  • Although this wine has much more Cabernet Sauvignon than the 2007, the wines seem to be more like sisters than cousins. The 2008 stands not in the shadows of 2007 as I had first thought it might but right next to it. It is a wine that although different in structure, nevertheless possesses all that it needs to satisfy now and in the future.

    2008 Two Blondes
  • Appellation: Yakima Valley
  • Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc,
  • Winemaker: Chris Camarda
  • The middle palate is full and soft with sophisticated fruit from the Angle Block section of the vineyard. The fruit is fully focused in a way which allows opinions to be drawn, as well as a call for patience with this wine. The vineyard is starting to show its pedigree more assertively as each year strengthens the plantings. My thanks go out to all the work Chris Hoon has done at this vineyard.

  • Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot

  • This wine has a full middle palate with layers of raspberry, black cherry, and plum with blueberry reflections. The wine is soft considering the percentage of cabernet and has good acidity that contributes to its freshness and structure.

    2009 Sorella
  • Appellation: Horse Heaven Hills
  • Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot
  • Winemaker: Chris Camarda
  • This wine has a full, beautiful nose with massive structure. There are mineral-like qualities in both the nose and finish, along with scents of deep, recessive fruit and licorice that deliver fully on the palate. The wine's intensity and elegance is highlighted by its rich layering of sweetness and silky tannins.

    2009 Two Blondes
  • Appellation: Yakima Valley
  • Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc,
  • Winemaker: Chris Camarda
  • This is a soft and supple, almost lyrical wine with great acidity. There are hints of black fruit qualities on the finish, which are highlighted by more herbal and citrus freshness in the middle palate. The sophistication on the nose lifts the wine's complexity with its perfume-based bouquet.

    2008 Ciel du Cheval
  • Appellation: Red Mountain
  • Blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon,
  • Winemaker: Chris Camarda
  • This wine is currently the front runner in this release. The blend of structure, power and depth made the wine the favorite in a recent tasting of ten vintages of Ciel du Cheval (the much maligned 2000 vintage was second….so much for ideology). The wine is immediately expressive as well as fully in control of the austerity this vineyard always shows.

    2007 Semillon
  • Appellation: Yakima Valley
  • Winemaker: Chris Camarda
  • This is our first time making Semillon. Straw colored in the glass, the nose conjures up herbs and quince. On the palate, an introduction of mineral citrus, honey, and grilled pear leads to a plump umami middle and finishes with a lingering mouthwatering freshness.
