White Wine
Notes of pineapple, peach, pear, and green apple. Lifted aromatics of citrus, lightly spiced with toasty oak and hints of buttery cream. Well-defined, fresh flavors of tangerine, lemon curd, stone fruit, white peach, and nectarine on the palate, lifted by a lightly toasted and warm oak character.
Aromatic and attractive, this wine spends a little time on its skins, causing it to burst with aromas of flowers, peaches, lime leaf and a bit of honey. The skins also contribute to the satiny texture, balanced by crisp acidity and finishing with a limey, saline tang.
A beautiful bouquet of cranberry, boysenberry, redwood bark, and a hint of red licorice waft from this 2014 Pinot Noir. Then an enchantingly juicy, mouthwatering palate of perfumery raspberry, red cherry and cassis roll smoothly into a perky sweet-tart, persistent, rose petal finish.
Exceptional blend offers a lively bouquet of mouthwatering honeydew melon, juicy pomelo and sweet starfruit aromas that dance with hints of soft white floral's and spun sugar. The crisp palate leads with ripe fruit flavors of pineapple, lychee, Meyer lemon and fuzzy white peach that linger through the refreshing finish, balanced by vibrant acidity and subtle hints of white tea and clean mineral.
Red Wine
Rich with dark berry fruit, more on the broad-shouldered side, aided by complimentary spice and oak accents. Cinnamon notes floating around red berry and floral flavors, finishing with gentle persistence against lively acidity and fine tannins.
Bold aromas of black cherry and plum are heightened by hints of oak and Madagascar vanilla. A soft and velvety palate of anise, dark cocoa powder and roasted sage lead into a dense finish with luscious tannins.
