This wine will always be called remembrance but the label may change to some collectors choices.

Farm to Table

Autumn Fall

$8.00 / glass

As they bickered back and fourth the wine twisted to become just Autumn Fall. Z&M prides ourselves in building strong relationships with our Leavenworth farmers. All of the apples we use for this wine are grown right here in Leavenworth area. We hope you’ll enjoy a fresh apple white wine with notes of Caramel at the end.
