Buty
Buty produces Syrah and Cabernet-based wines from Washington's Walla Walla Valley, a region defined by warm days, cool nights, and deep volcanic soils. The winery draws fruit from distinguished vineyard sites: Champoux Vineyard, a benchmark source in the valley, and Phinny Hill Vineyard. The Beast Champoux Vineyard Syrah—a wine rated 93.7 by prestige critics—captures the region's signature intensity and structure. The Beast Phinny Hill Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (92.9) and Champoux Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon–Cabernet Franc blend (92.5) demonstrate the winery's focus on Bordeaux varieties in a continental climate where they develop power and complexity. Wine Enthusiast and Wine Advocate have assessed the portfolio. The winery's emphasis on single-vineyard expression reflects Walla Walla's terroir-driven tradition.
