About The Wine

Red Mountain sits at the epicenter of Washington's serious wine conversation — a compact AVA where basalt-driven intensity meets precision.

WeatherEye Vineyards is a renowned high-altitude wine estate on Red Mountain in Washington, founded in 2004 by Cameron Myhrvold and managed by Ryan Johnson. Known for its innovative growing practices in a challenging environment, the vineyard produces exceptional small-batch wines, particularly Rhône and Spanish varietals, as well as distinctive white wines celebrated for their minerality and acidity.

The 2021 vintage was brutal. The second hottest year on record in Washington State, anchored by a late-June heat dome that sent thermometers past 115°. But WeatherEye's farming — vine spacings, row orientation, clonal selection, irrigation timing — anticipated exactly this.

The result is a wine that drinks hot-vintage but doesn't taste heat-stressed: full-bodied concentration with high acidity and a plush, velvety texture that defies the vintage's reputation.

The wine shows deep blackberry and cassis, layered with dark chocolate, graphite, mint, and leather. Bold tannins, juicy fruit, a long chewy finish. It's built to cellar two decades, but it's hitting hard right now.

This is serious, age-worthy Washington Bordeaux from a producer who farms for climate chaos and still delivers finesse.

CRITIC REVIEWS

What the Critics Said

The stunning new 2021 WeatherEye Cabernet Sauvignon combines 5% Merlot and 3% Cabernet Franc. Stored in 75% new French oak barrels, this offers amazing texture, weight and underlying finesse. Deep and concentrated, with very concentrated black and blue fruit flavors, sweet pipe tobacco, with pencil lead and garrigue notes, this is going to be a really long-aging wine that is best enjoyed a year from now and over the next twenty years. ~99 Owen Bargreen

Lastly, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is a deep purple/plum hue and has textbook Red Mountain Cabernet notes of red and black currants, spicy wood, savory herbs, and freshly sharpened pencils. A blend of 92% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc aged in 75% new French oak, it reminds me of a great vintage of Léoville Las Cases with its inward, regal, tannic style. It’s certainly not for the instant gratification crowd, and it's going to need 4-6 years, if not more, to shed some tannins, but this is clearly loaded with potential. ~97 Jeb Dunnuck

The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon WeatherEye Estate opens with a balsamic tinge, mixing enriching notes of plum sauce, grilled herbs and crushed raspberries. It's round and supple, with juicy acidity propelling masses of dark red fruits. The 2021 tapers off crunchy and long, leaving a primary staining of wild berries, and fine-grained tannins that promise many years of positive development.~ 96 Vinous Media

I didn't know whether to describe this wine or build a shrine in its honor. If obsidian or Prince's “Black” album had an aroma, this wine would be it. Deep blueberry and blackberry aromas crash into notes of wet slate and black olives. Brawny tannins support rich flavors of dark chocolate, black currants and anise. This is majestic stuff. ~ 95 Wine Enthusiast

Sophisticated and spicy nose of cloves, nutmeg, cedar, lavender and blue and black fruit. Firm, full-bodied and broad-shouldered with a solid tannin frame supporting the dark fruit. Dense and chewy finish. Cabernet with 5% merlot and 3% cabernet franc. Needs a couple of years. Try after 2026. ~ 94 James Suckling

THE PRODUCER

Weathereye Estate

Perched atop the windswept ridgelines of Red Mountain in Washington's Columbia Valley, WeatherEye is a bold, meticulously crafted estate conceived by Cameron Myhrvold in 2004 and built over nearly two decades of visionary planning.

The 440-acre property features nearly 40 acres under vine, organized into 70 micro-blocks tailored to the site's striking diversity of soils — from basalt bedrock to sandy loess — with Rhône, Bordeaux, and Spanish varieties planted across extreme slopes and elevations. Named 2022 Northwest Winery of the Year, WeatherEye has earned widespread critical acclaim for its radical, high-altitude viticulture in terrain once considered too rugged to farm.
