2020 Mourvedre - $34
2020 Mourvedre – 144 cases produced (14.5% Alc)
Sierra Foothills. The Mourvèdre grape originates from Spain where it is known as Monastrell but is most well known as one of the major grapes of Rhône region along with Grenache and Syrah. We most often use Mourvèdre as a blending grape in our Midnight every year but on occasion we have enough left over to offer it as a single varietal. Each year we source our Mourvedre from the same grower, locally here in El Dorado County, at around 3000 feet in elevation and it is usually one of the last grapes harvested every year. As this Mourvedre has a longer hang-time on the vine, it produces a softer and less acidic wine that is more medium-bodied. Discover flavors of plum, blackberry and butterscotch. At the end of your palate, you’ll experience more earthy flavors of mushrooms and pepper with well-integrated tannins on the finish.

2019 Petite Sirah - SOLD OUT
2019 Petite Sirah – 236 Cases Produced (15.5% alcohol)
Petite Sirah earned its name from the small size of its berries and not from the size of the wine. Petite Sirah is one of the biggest, darkest and most tannic wines produced in California. Mostly known as a blending wine for added color and body, we offer it as a stand-alone varietal because it’s just too good not to. This 2019 is rich and full with a fruit forward palate that perfectly balances the bold tannins. Aromas of cacao and dark berries fill the glass while flavors of blackberry jam, sweet plums and dark chocolate make this wine the perfect complement to bolder dishes.

The huge structures of Petit Verdot and Petite Sirah come together for a pleasing surprise and a balanced mouthfeel. This luscious bold wine can be enjoyed now or cellared for years to come. All this needs is a nice peppery dish. We prefer a peppered beef filet or lamb chop and a dollop garlic butter.. will never disappoint!

2021 Sangiovese - $34
2021 Sangiovese – 182 Cases Produced (14.5% alcohol)
Sierra Foothills. The Sangiovese grape is a bit of a chameleon; easily altering its genetics to fit its environment. Depending on exactly where its grown; climate, soil and farming techniques play an even more significant role in the flavors and the aromas the wine will have. Our Sangiovese always comes from Coloma, CA nestled by the American River in rich soils where the summer days are hot and the nights are cool. This growing region makes for a lighter, fruitier Sangiovese. Out of the bottle is a beautiful bright red color with aromas of perfumed berries. On the palate it is light bodied with light tannins and bright red fruits of cherries, strawberries and raspberries. On the finish there are traces of clove and caramel from both American and French oak.

Bold fruit forward flavors of dried blueberries, ripe plums, with tertiary flavors of mocha and molasses and hints of vanilla and cocoa from French Oak on the finish.

2019 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon French Oak - $31
2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate French Oak (Alcohol 15.5%)
Our estate grown Cabernet Sauvignon is dry-farmed and was planted over 37 years ago. The deeply rooted and vigorous vines produce small berries with thick skins and not very much juice which makes for a very concentrated and deeply colored wine packed with intense flavor. Our unique microclimate and soil type allows for this popular Bordeaux varietal to thrive. The 2019 vintage was aged in select French oak barrels for 24 months which rounded out the structure and length of the wine while elegantly enhancing its rich red fruit characters. Flavors of chocolate covered cherries, black plum, exotic spices from oak and a hint of anise. Enjoy!

2019 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon American Oak "The Lone Ranger" - $31
2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate American Oak (Alcohol 15%)
Our American Oak Estate Cabernet Sauvignon style is unique. We aged this limited batch in special Amerian oak barrels to show how American oak steers the flavors and aromas of a wine in a much different direction than French oak does. American oak tends to be more potent, giving a perception of sweetness to a wine with a creamier texture. Made in the same batch, aged in different oak, this rendition is meant to be paired side by side with that of its French oak aged counterpart. Discover similar flavors of black cherry and blackberry but with a richer, almost sweeter finish. Additional flavors of prunes, black currants, marshmallow, baking spice and a hint of white pepper.
Enjoy!

2019 Estate Cabernet Franc - $35
2019 Cabernet Franc (13.5% Alcohol)
Cabernet Franc is the father of Cab Sauv (the mother being Sauvignon Blanc). I enjoy making it, and imagine my winemaking forefathers enjoyed making it too, hundreds of years ago. It’s a little sip of wine history, if you will. We let it hang for as long as possible to get maximum maturation, and minimal vegetal notes in the finished wine. If you have reservations against Cab Franc, we think you will like this one. People always ask me what my favorite wine is; well this is always a strong contender.

What a big wine from such a tiny grape! This 2020 vintage is amazing. It has nothing but plums and red cherry all day in the nose, with a depth of flavor that is hard to describe; kind of earthy and fruity and oaky with a long finish. This wine will make some purple smiles for sure.

2019 Shady Lady ~ Primitivo - $37
2019 “Shady Lady” ~ Primitivo 15% Alc, Sierra Foothills
Terroir driven. Expressive. Fragrant. Elegant. One word sentences with this wine. Why over think it? “Shady Lady” Primitivo has for a long time been all of these descriptors and then some. Maybe we are a bit bias, but we aren’t the only ones. We just love Primitivo, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Aromas of boysenberry, cedar wood and mocha show through first in a diverse multi-layered complex. Ever evolving flavors show fourth on the palate. Pomegranate, red currant and clove are woven within… Further discoveries are made with each swirl of the glass. And yet one thought keeps coming to mind when trying to describe such a complex wine as this, “Why over think it?”

2019 "Foxy Lady" Old Vine Zinfandel - SOLD OUT
2019 Foxy Lady Old Vine Zinfandel
Alc 15.5% Our Foxy Lady Old Vine Zinfandel comes from Fox Creek in Amador County. These head-trained vines were planted in the 1880’s. Like any vines that are over 100 years old, it doesn’t do a lot as far as yield goes, but the small amount of fruit produced makes a rich, deep and concentrated wine. The 2019 Foxy Lady is full bodied and fruit forward with rich, dark berries and nuances of spice.

NV Trousseau Port 750 mL - $40.00
NV Trousseau Port 750 ml (19.5% Alcohol)
Also known lovingly as “Bastardo” due to the difficulty in farming it, this Portuguese native makes some killer ports. We produce ours in a more tawny style, by aging it for multiple years in French oak. The resulting wine is light in color with nutty and baked fruit aromas, and a nice red cherry note to the flavor. We also keep our ports quite a bit lower in sugar than most, to maintain the fruit instead being syrupy. This Trousseau pairs well with blue cheese and of course dark chocolate.

Ruby Port Non-Vintage 375 mL- $25.00
Ruby Port Non-vintage (17.5% Alcohol)
Our Non-vintage Ruby Port is a favorite among Port wine drinkers. Our Ruby Port is made with the six traditional Portuguese port grapes: Tinta Roriz (aka Tempranillo), Tinta Cao, Touriga Nacional, Trousseau (aka Bastardo), Touriga Franca, and Tinta Amarela. Most of the component lots are aged a minimum of 10 years, with some lots dating back to the early 90’s. Careful blending guarantees consistency from bottling to bottling. We keep our sugar lower than the average port (around 5% versus 8% traditionally), and the alcohol is not excessive either, hovering around the 18% range. Great with dark chocolate, stinky cheese and dried fruits.

2005 Vintage Port 375 mL- $38.00
2005 Vintage Port (18.4% Alcohol)
Sometimes Mother Nature provides us with an amazing port year, and we keep a barrel or two separate for our vintage bottling. The 2005 was one of these years. We also really liked the oak influence on this particular bottling. Soft and velvety, this port has many layers of flavors. We hope you like the complexity of this port, and agree that it is a world class contender.

NV Tinto Cão Port 750 mL - $40.00
NV Tinto Cão Port 750 ml (19.5% Alcohol)
Another Portuguese grape, Tinto Cao lends itself perfectly for port. This bottling highlights the deep color and bright fruit character of this grape. We kept it tucked away in the back of our barrel room for over 6 years to intensify the flavors. Again, like our other ports, we keep the sugar to a minimum to highlight the qualities of the vineyard. We like this port in the evening, after dinner is done, and the stars are out. Take time to savor the aromas before sipping and talking the night away with your close friends and family.
