The Walls Vineyards Mahana 2022 Review

Owner Mike Martin had a life changing moment in the early aughts that led him to a road trip that ran through Washington’s Walla Walla Valley. He fell in love with the wine and the place, and kept coming back until at one point, he never left. This GSM blend is absolutely delicious and one of the most balanced we’ve tasted in recent memory, truly showing off the three varieties involved. The nose has beautiful bright berry fruit with subtle hints of pepper and a whisper of oak. It has a joyous mouthfeel with bright lively fruit and active acidity. The balance in this wine is everywhere.
