Stevens
Stevens operates in Washington's Yakima Valley, the heart of Columbia Valley's premium wine country. The winery focuses on Bordeaux and Rhône varietals suited to the region's warm days and cool nights. The XY Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, rated 91.6 by prestige critics, anchors the portfolio—a wine built on the valley's signature dark fruit and structure. The Timley Malbec (90.7) and Merlot (90.5) round out a lineup that emphasizes varietal expression and balance. Wine Enthusiast and Wine Advocate have both assessed Stevens' offerings, reflecting the winery's engagement with serious wine criticism. Yakima Valley's volcanic soils and diurnal temperature swings create conditions for wines with depth and aging potential, qualities evident across Stevens' range.
