This is more than a deal—it’s a window into the future of Washington wine. Crafted by Matías Kúsulas, one of the state’s most exciting winemakers and IWR’s Washington Winemaker of the Year, Reverence 2020 blends Grenache (88%), Mourvèdre (8%), and Syrah (4%) into a silky, fruit-forward stunner.
Kúsulas’s journey is anything but ordinary: a former Chilean Marine officer and naval engineer, he pivoted to enology with training in Bordeaux and Montpellier before making wine in France’s Côte-Rôtie and Condrieu, as well as South Africa and New Zealand. Today he leads Gård Vintners on the Royal Slope AVA, crafting terroir-driven wines that balance innovation and tradition. He also helms boutique labels VALO and Massalto, each pushing boundaries in their own way.
Reverence 2020 explodes with aromas of blueberry, stewed strawberry, sugarplum, vanilla, and anise, then unfolds on the palate with minerality, cured meats, and white pepper. A fan calls it a “great Rhone-style blend” with depth, balance, and savory complexity.
This is a chance to experience a wine crafted by a winemaker whose global perspective and fearless spirit are shaping Washington’s wine landscape—at a price that won’t last.

自九十年代末以来，华盛顿的葡萄酒种植者已经大大扩展了他们的红葡萄葡萄品种。经典的波尔多葡萄品种包括赤霞珠、梅鹿辄、品丽珠、马尔贝克，以及西拉，歌海娜和莫尔维德等罗纳品种。还有意大利品种如桑娇维塞，内比奥罗和巴贝拉。
这对葡萄酒买家意味着什么？与加州以纳帕赤霞珠和俄勒冈州的黑皮诺而闻名不同，华盛顿提供各种各样的葡萄酒供您选择。葡萄酒厂通常会专注于特定的葡萄酒风格—如罗纳风格的混酿或波尔多风格的葡萄酒。
华盛顿生产世界级葡萄酒。总体而言，华盛顿红酒的特点为果实味浓，不像许多加州葡萄酒那样成熟，酒精也不那么高，且具有一定程度的优雅，让人想起旧世界的...
