What's New in the Tasting Room?
Remember our 2006 Santa Cruz Mountains Syrah? We recently located a small quantity of 2006 Black Ridge Syrah held by an out of area distributor, and we are very excited about re-releasing it now and pouring it in our Tasting Room again! The wine received a 90 point review from the Connoisseurs' Guide and was a favorite Syrah for many people. This wine will be available in the Tasting Room beginning on September 1st and will sell out again fast. Don't miss it!!
Wine Club Exclusive - Fleming Jenkins 2007 Trio B Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, Yountville (Napa Valley)
Announcing our newest wine -- reserved for our Wine Club members. There are only 276 bottles (yes, bottles, not cases) of this special wine produced from a single barrel of Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from Trio B Vineyard in Yountville. Before blending our 2007 Napa Valley Choreography last year, we picked a distinctive single barrel of 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon from the 40 barrels in cellar. The stand alone wine was bottled after spending 23 months in 100% new French oak and it's an incredible singular expression of the Vineyard! We created a special label and all bottles are hand signed and numbered by Greg and Peggy. Release price is $105 per bottle. Wine Club price (2 bottle limit) is $84 per bottle. Please contact us at (408) 358-4949 for more details - this wine will be available for purchase on September 1st.
