Planted in 2000 in the cooler reaches of Yakima Valley, Two Blondes is one of Andrew Will’s hallmark single-vineyard sites—elevated, wind-exposed, and perfectly suited for structured Bordeaux varieties. The 2018 blend, led by Merlot and Cabernet Franc, is all about proportion: ripe but not rich, firm but not heavy.

What sets it apart is its calm confidence. There’s dark fruit, yes, but also graphite, tobacco leaf, and quiet spice. The tannins are fine and grippy, the acidity lifted, and the overall impression is one of slow-release depth rather than front-loaded intensity. Aged in mostly neutral oak, the fruit and site stay front and center.

If you’re looking for Washington red that favors detail over density, Two Blondes 2018 is a study in understatement.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

AG 94
"The 2018 Red Wine Two Blondes is intense, blasting up with a seductive Merlot-centric bouquet of wild blueberries, lavender and sweet smoke before nuances of wet stone and baking spice emerge in the glass. This is a total darling, silky-smooth and elegant, with generous ripe red and blue fruits contrasted by saline-tinged acidity and the slightest tug of sour citrus. It finishes incredibly long and like a basket full of wild berries, staining the palate while also leaving it with an unbelievably fresh impression. There's a balanced structure here, but also enough fruit to nearly mask the tannins at this young stage. Total beauty." -Vinous

Robert Parker

RP 92
"A blend of 64% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Malbec, the 2018 Two Blonds Vineyard opens with a lush and warm nose with aromas of blackberry jus, spiced plums and baked earth. Medium to full-bodied, the palate displays a balanced structure as dusty fruit flavors unpack across the mid-palate, ending with a long, winding finish leaving persistent flavors of black cherry skin in the mouth. The wine rested in 35% new French oak for 22 months. Just under 7,000 bottles were filled. Keep an eye out for this release." -Robert Parker

Decanter

D 93
"Exhibits a deep core and is loaded with rich dark fruits alongside tar, anise and sagebrush tones on the palate. Full-bodied and downright delicious to consume now, this has a long life ahead of it."
