About the wine
The first Angel-funded wine from Washington is like biting into a ripe, juicy peach!
- The Yakima Valley's cool climate is perfect for making lush white wines that taste like you're biting into a ripe, juicy peach. That's why Katy harvests Riesling from two different vineyards at Hogue Ranch and one picturesque cliffside overlooking the Columbia River.
- Katy's a veteran winemaker with a proven track record, but she was so disenchanted with the corporate wine world that she was hanging up her winemaking hat until you came along. Now with Angel-funding, she's back at it and making wines she loves to drink.
- This Riesling is really crisp and doesn't taste as sweet as most Rieslings you find in the US. It's also not a huge alcoholic wine (right around 12.5% alc.) so you can enjoy a glass or two guilt-free.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Justin & Katy Michaud
Katy and Justin Michaud are two of Washington's most talented young winemakers – the folks behind award-winning wines at Canoe Ridge, Kim Crawford, Covey Run and Coyote Canyon.
They’ve had huge success individually - and thanks to Angels, this husband-wife duo are creating their own wines together (for the first time ever!) They’re psyched to join forces and introduce more spectacular cool-climate wines to Angels across the US.
Washington produces vibrant, fruit-driven wines that you just can't capture in California – the moment we tasted Katy and Justin's wines we knew we were onto something that would give Napa a run for its money!
