Icon Cellars

Wine for the Love of Life, and the Art of Living! ™

With so many small, boutique Washington wineries who's focus it is to produce fine, hand-crafted artisanal wines, it is difficult to discern where wines of superior quality and exceptional value can truly be found. We at Icon Cellars devote ourselves to producing elegant, "Old World" style wines for those discerning individuals who thoughtfully choose wine to compliment life regardless the occasion… “wines for the love of life and the art of living.”

Dedicated to the art of crafting superior wines meant for a discriminating few, our production levels are thoughtfully and purposefully kept small, allowing greater time and attention to be spent coaxing the fullest and most complete expression of each varietal, while clearly understanding the inherent value in providing exclusive and limited offerings that cannot be acquired by everyone.

Lastly, but no less importantly, it is my goal as Winemaker and owner of Icon Cellars to provide for you unique opportunities to experience and enjoy Icon wines with those; like yourself, who also appreciate wine complemented by fine food, fine art and of course fine music. I will personally look forward to meeting you and welcoming you into our exclusive Icon Circle of friends.

 2012 Porporina ~ $30.00

Icon Cellars award winning Porporina is an enticing Super-Tuscan style wine made from Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah.

This is a nuanced wine with aromas of lavender, dried herbs, black licorice, and dark plum. Beautifully balanced palate showing bright cherry, cardamom, and vanilla, with soft tannins and a ferrous minerality on a long finish.

Pair with tomato based dishes such as pizza and pasta, mushroom risotto,  crudo tuna, pork roast, game such as venison or wild boar, or grilled dishes (especially if prepared with herbs such as rosemary and thyme).
