Doubleback buys fourth vineyard in Washington

Walla Walla, Wash.—Doubleback winery has acquired Lefore Vineyard, which is now the company’s fourth estate vineyard. The vineyard is located in the The Rocks District of Milton-Freewater AVA, and has been used by the winery as a source of grapes in previous vintages. The 28-acre vineyard was planted in the late 1990s and was sold by partners Bob Lewis and George Killian. The vineyard is planted to Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Viognier, Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Doubleback now owns 155 acres with 61 of those planted and plans to plant an additional 10 acres this spring. Doubleback was founded by former NFL quarterback Drew Bledsoe.
