DiStefano
DiStefano produces wines in Washington's Puget Sound region, where maritime influence and cool-climate conditions shape the character of the vineyard. The winery's Cabernet Sauvignon anchors its portfolio, a wine that demonstrates the structure and depth Cabernet achieves in this northern latitude. The Proprietors Reserve Ottimo blends Cabernet Sauvignon with Shiraz, marrying the region's signature restraint with the warmth of Syrah. A Sémillon rounds out the core offerings, capturing the aromatic precision and mineral tension that white wines from Puget Sound can express. Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, Wine Advocate, and Falstaff have all assessed DiStefano's output, providing external measure of the wines' quality across the portfolio.
