The story

The story behind Hedges Family

Tom Hedges and Anne-Marie Liégeois Hedges started the label in 1987, first for export to Sweden, then bought their Red Mountain acreage in 1989. Washington's Columbia Valley grows the grapes, and daughter Sarah Hedges Goedhart now runs winemaking and operations. All 120 estate acres earned Demeter Biodynamic certification in 2021.

The CMS name is the recipe: Chardonnay, Marsanne, Sauvignon Blanc. Sauvignon Blanc brings the citrus and cut, Chardonnay fills the middle, Marsanne handles the aromatics. It ferments cool in stainless steel, never sees oak, and skips malolactic, so the fruit stays clean. Hedges also refuses to chase point scores, which tells you plenty.

Hedges Family questions, answered

What does CMS stand for on the Hedges wine label?
CMS stands for Chardonnay, Marsanne, and Sauvignon Blanc, the three grape varieties blended together in the wine. Sauvignon Blanc leads the blend, with Chardonnay adding body and Marsanne adding aromatic depth.
Is Hedges Family Estate wine certified organic or biodynamic?
Yes. As of 2021, all 120 acres of the Hedges Family Red Mountain estate vineyards and the entire production facility are officially Demeter Certified Biodynamic. The Columbia Valley fruit for the CMS wines comes from sustainably farmed vineyard partners.
Where are the grapes grown for the Hedges CMS Sauvignon Blanc?
The grapes are sustainably sourced from multiple select vineyard locations within Washington State's broader Columbia Valley AVA, including the Yakima Valley. The family estate itself sits in the Red Mountain AVA, where the higher tier Le Blanc is produced.
Does Hedges CMS Sauvignon Blanc see any oak aging?
No. The wine is 100 percent unoaked and aged solely in stainless steel tanks to keep the flavor profile crisp and fruit forward. It also skips malolactic fermentation, which preserves the bright acidity and citrus character.
