At its best in 10 to 12 years, and drinking well for 30 or more
PRODUCER
Tim Lenihan, who grew up in the Yakima Valley, and Sidney Rice founded Dossier Wine Collective in Walla Walla in 2021, naming it for how they work: every idea from their team and community goes into one file, and the best wine comes out. Master of Wine Billo Naravane makes the wines from some of Washington's best vineyards.
*Dossier's top tier, and rarely seen in our market. One for the cellar, or for a very good night.*
