Prospice Wines

November 25, 2019

We bring you a tale of another new winery, producing Washington wines that gear towards elegance, Prospice Wines was founded by Jay Krutulis and Matt Reilly. Jay studied Biology in college and Neuroscience in graduate school before embarking on nearly 20 years of studying and practicing corporate law. His entry into law was inspired by visits to Woodinville area while working for Amazon. He is a graduate of the Walla Walla Community College Enology & Viticulture Program at Walla Walla Community College and has served as cellarmaster for Tranche. Matt lived in Spokane and worked harvests for Barrister Winery, and after a cross country stint moved back to eastern Washington where he also graduated from the WWCC Enology and Viticulure program. Matt has worked at Mark Ryan Winery and has served as cellarmaster at Gramercy Cellars. The winery sources from some exciting vineyards including Les Collines, Resurgent and Gamache Vineyards.

The new wines by Prospice were beautiful across the board. I really enjoyed the 2017 Prospice Wines Cabernet Franc (WWB, 91) which has really great tension and wonderful varietal typicity. Learn more about this new winery at https://prospice.wine


2017 Prospice Wines Merlot- The 2017 Prospice Wines Merlot black cherry cordial with a dusting of cocoa powder that fills the nose. The wine shows a good sense of balance on the palate with rich red cherry preserves, coffee grounds and black tea flavors. Drink 2019-2025- 90


2017 Prospice Wines Cabernet Franc- The 2017 Cabernet Franc by Prospice is a fantastic new wine from this Walla Walla winery. The very pretty nose shows red rose petals with red raspberry and black currant aromas that take their shape in the glass. The palate has good viscosity and tension that runs through the core of the wine, unveiling ripe red fruits with sagebrush and milk chocolate tones that impress. Drink 2019-2027- 91
