Symphony – a California Claret

SOLD OUT!  This is our second vintage for our left bank Bordeaux styler blend, primarily featuring Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot, Malbec and Petite Verdot. It is a true Meritage. As with the highly rated and award winning 2019, it spent at least one year in new American oak, giving it aromas and flavors of spice and vanilla. As with other great left bank of Bordeaux wines, it has a wonderful bouquet of dark fruits including raspberries, blackberries, and cassis. It has a lingering finish and wonderful, smooth mouth feel. While still young, this is an age worthy wine and will taste best if decanted or given time to breathe. It is drinkable now as the tannins are beginning to be supple and rich. As the wine matures it will simply get better and better.

2021 Super American – A delicious proprietary red blend

This unique wine has become a new favorite. It is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Merlot and Petit Verdot. A rich, easy to drink wine that spends a year in stainless and then at least 18 months in oak to mature. This is a wine that will age nicely. It has a deep, dark color and robust flavor. Black currants and blackberries mix with blueberries and spice to create an intriguing bouquet and a moderate to full mouth feel with a luscious, fruity taste. This wine becomes drinkable surprisingly early, given the fruit it contains. The tannins are present, and are softening, but will further soften with age. After their first experience with this blend, most people come back for more.

Zinfull – A unique, delicious, easy to drink blend

This wine is a real favorite. Zinfull’s unique blend of Primitivo ( a genetic sister to Zinfandel) , Petite Sirah and other selected fruit makes this a pleasure to drink. It also ages very well. It is smooth, with a bouquet that combines blackberry, cherry, and blueberry. It has a very deep, ruby color and an intriguing, complex taste with both black and blue fruit as well as a hint of pepper and spice which puts a smile on many faces. This is a wine that goes well with Hamburger and BBQ, pulled pork and other delicious, hearty meats.

Zinfull Reserve – A unique, more age worthy blend with extra time in oak

Zinfull Reserve starts with the same delicious blend of fruit as in Zinfull and kicks it up a notch with an additional 6 months of oak aging given to our best barrels. The bouquet is more intense with even more of the blueberry, cherry, plum and blackberry of the very fruity Zinfull. On the palate, the complexity grows with enhanced blue and black fruit, pepper, and spice. This is age worthy, both from the extra tannins in Primitivo as well as the extra time in oak. This wine takes the best characteristics of Zinfull and intensifies them in every dimension. It is bold and elevates the blend.

Machaia – A California take on a Super Tuscan

Machaia is inspired by  wines now called Super Tuscan. The primary fruit of this blend adds the tastes of dark fruit while the secondary fruit adds cherry and cranberry interest. The oak adds vanilla overtones which combine with rich earth aromas. A full-bodied wine with a delightful, long lasting finish. It has a big, full mouth feel and is a warm and hearty wine.
