✨ wine.spec_sheet
Named after 'Bramble Bump,' the serene, wooded hillside in Woodinville where JM Cellars was founded in 1998, the Bramble Bump Red is a signature proprietary blend that captures the welcoming, family-focused spirit of the estate. Crafted as an approachable yet deeply expressive red, this wine serves as an elegant introduction to the winery's blending prowess. It typically marries classic Bordeaux varietals with a touch of Syrah, sourced from prestigious, sustainably farmed vineyards across Washington State, including their estate Margaret's Vineyard in the Walla Walla Valley. The wine undergoes traditional fermentation and aging in French oak barrels, resulting in a harmonious balance of rich dark fruit, subtle spice, and velvety tannins that pay homage to the unique Pacific Northwest terroir.
