Dunham Cellars Three Legged Red Washington State 2021

Each year, Dunham Cellars blends a portion of its wines into this red table wine. Featuring fruit from our estate vineyards and using the same barrels in which we age our finest Cabernet, Merlot and Syrah, we are able to maintain the consistent high quality of our top wines, while creating a great everyday wine that is price-friendly.

It was a sunny day in the summer of 1994 when I met Port. Outside I heard the distinct sound of an animal in distress. It took only moments to realize what was happening across the field from my house – a young puppy had fallen into harm’s way and was being attacked by another dog. I ran to the scene, broke up the fight and found that the puppy was very badly injured. Instinctively, I wrapped him up and took him to the veterinarian, and although the puppy had lost a leg, he had found a home. With only three legs, and two on the port side, I named him Port, and he was my best friend.
