2020 Abeja Heather Hill Cabernet Sauvignon, Walla Walla Valley, Washington, USA
ABOUT THIS WINE
The 2020 growing season was marked by low yields, hot summer weather, and sufficient fall hang time to produce wines with intense aromatics and concentrated flavors. After a typical bud break in mid-April and moderate temperatures through May, conditions cooled in June. July and August were hot, but the weather cooled again in September to slow ripening just enough to give the grapes extra time on the vine to ripen fully.
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
Abeja founders Ken and Ginger Harrison came to Walla Walla Valley in the late 1990s in search of land suitable for planting world class Cabernet Sauvignon. It was while searching for an ideal vineyard location that the couple discovered an extraordinary historic farmstead that captured their hearts and sparked their imagination. The idea for Abeja began to take hold. Not only was the property suited for grape growing and winemaking, but by restoring the farmstead’s existing buildings, the Harrisons saw the opportunity to preserve the property’s rich heritage while creating a one-of-a-kind Walla Walla wine country destination. Abeja (pronounced “ah-BAY-ha”) is Spanish for a bee. As an indicator species, the honey bee not only reminds us of the importance of caring for our environment but also honors the value we place on working together as a community
