One of Washington’s new wineries, these wines are packed with flavor!
O•S Winery started life as a partnership between Rob Sullivan and Owen
with one thing in mind: producing irresistible, jaw-dropping wines.
Securing fruit from the best vineyards and working with growers on the
details of viticulture was and remains the foundation of our endeavor.
Their focus since the beginning has been on select sites and low yields
combined with a winemaking ethic centered on simplicity (i.e. no fining,
no filtering, gravity fed production) all with one aim: Opulent,
Voluptuous, Concentrated Red Wines. YUM!!
