Syrah and Grenache will supplement our already excellent supply of Rocks District fruit. Smaller parcels of Merlot, Chardonnay and Carmenere will also be added.
Planting in the Spring of 2019, the Hooker property will be Watermill’s most ambitious to date. At 16.5 acres this is one of the larger continuous properties in the Rocks District and equivalent in size to our three other vineyards combined, and will connect all the Watermill properties to make an almost unbroken stretch of more than 30 acres in the Rocks District of Milton-Freewater. 12 acres of Syrah and Grenache will supplement our already excellent supply and allow Watermill to make a widely available GSM Blend. Smaller parcels of Merlot, Chardonnay and Carmenere will also be added.
