Our Winemaking Philosophy

At Page Cellars, winemaking is an art, a craft, and a deep-rooted passion. Our approach is built on a steadfast commitment to authenticity, quality, and respect for the land—values that have been part of our DNA since Dee and Todd Krivoshein first discovered our wines.

Embracing the Red Mountain Advantage
Our wines are inspired by the unique qualities of the Red Mountain AVA, one of Washington’s most celebrated wine regions. Red Mountain is blessed with abundant sunshine, warm days, and a long, extended growing season. These natural conditions nurture fruit that is rich, concentrated, and full of complex flavors. We let the region’s character shine through by carefully sourcing the best fruit that embodies the intense, robust profiles our wines are known for.

The Art of Oak Aging
To perfectly complement our bold fruit, we exclusively use American oak in our cellar. This choice imparts a distinctive depth and richness to our wines, adding layers of spice, vanilla, and toasted nuances that enhance rather than overwhelm the fruit’s natural power. Our red wines are aged in oak barrels for 24 to 30 months, followed by an additional 12 months in the bottle. This extended aging process allows each wine to develop gracefully, achieving a harmonious balance and a refined complexity that only time and patience can create.

No Shortcuts, Just Tradition and Precision
Todd Krivoshein’s winemaking philosophy is rooted in consistency and a respect for tradition. Every step of our process—from selecting the finest fruit to the meticulous aging process—is executed with precision and care. There are no shortcuts here; we believe in giving our wines the time they need to develop fully before they’re opened and shared with you. This dedication to consistency ensures that every vintage is a true reflection of our commitment to excellence.

Honoring the Past, Embracing the Future
When Todd took the reins of winemaking at Page Cellars, his vision was clear: to honor the traditions set forth by our founder while also leaning into the natural strengths of the Red Mountain region. His journey is a continuation of a legacy that began long before he became a winemaker, inspired by his early experiences in a small winery in Walla Walla. Today, he blends that heritage with modern techniques to create wines that are both powerful and elegantly refined.

A Journey of Passion and Purpose
At Page Cellars, every bottle is a testament to our love for winemaking and our respect for the earth. Our philosophy is simple: let nature do what it does best, use time-honored methods, and craft each wine with passion and precision. We invite you to experience this journey in every sip—a story of the land, the legacy, and the enduring spirit of Red Mountain.

Cheers to a tradition of excellence and to the future of great wine!
