Eagle Point, Rogue Valley
AVA, Oregon
2010 Weeknight White
This Monday through Sunday wine was handcrafted
from grapes grown on our Estate Vineyard in the Rogue Valley of Southern
Oregon. This fruity off dry wine is a fun expression of a blend of Sauvignon
Blanc, Pinot Gris and Marsanne. Ample yet balanced acidity make this a
food friendly wine, but this wine is best accompanied by good friends,
great conversation and laughter.

2008 Cascade Terrace
Red
This blend offers spicy red currant aromas
and flavors with hints of blackberry jam. It is medium-full bodied with
naturally balanced acidity and a long, plump finish. We suggest a companion
pairing of grilled bratwurst with bacon-fennel Dijon mustard.

This unique white wine, made in the traditional
Italian Pinot Bianco style, greets your nose with a floral bouquet
of honeysuckle and pear blossom while the bright fruit flavors add to the
tasting experience and the bright acidity and citrus finish wake up the
palate.

Crisp and clean, this wine has wonderful
aroma of honeydew melon and is bursting with ripe apple and pear flavors
with hints of orange and cedar and lovely minerality. Fermented in
stainless steel with no secondary malolactic fermentation, it is made in
the Italian Pinot Grigio style traditional of Veneto and Friuli. The balance
of freshness and fruit flavor makes this wine a pleasure to drink and a
great match with seafood, chicken and Risotto Milanese.

2008 Laurine Pinot Noir
Our Laurine label explores the more delicate
and feminine character of Pinot noir. Enjoy our Pinot Noir’s traditional
floral aromas with its bright strawberry, raspberry and cranberry notes
with a hint of toasted vanilla. This graceful and well-balanced wine
is made for food lovers, pairing perfectly with salmon and duck.
This wine is produced primarily from our
estate-grown fruit. A larger proportion of Pommard fruit yields a unique
balance of flavor and tannins. Aged for 15 months, exclusively in French
oak, this wine offers great value and reflects the best qualities of the
2008 vintage.

2006 Pinot Noir

2006 Cabernet Sauvignon
Gold
Medal Winner
Hailing from one of
Oregon’s oldest vineyards (Hillcrest, planted in 1961), this wine has “that
old-vine stuffing.” There’s just something about older vineyard fruit
that can’t be duplicated or created in the cellar—this kind of complex
and deep flavor comes with time. Raspberry cedary nose, light bodied in
the mouth with nutmeg, banana creme pie and toasted oak flavors.
It finishes with a nice biting spice which fades in and then leaves you
with some nice mouthwatering acids. Enjoy rich, long flavors of black
fruit with the complex bouquet found only in top-quality cabs.

Suisun Valley, California
2009 Estate Sauvignon
Blanc
Double Gold Medal
- SF Int'l Wine Comp
Our 09 Sauvignon Blanc is a classic California
blend of grass and citrus. The initial aroma is a flush of dry hay, lemon
grass and grapefruit with floral notes reminiscent of sweet pea flowers.
|
2009 Estate Grown Three
Clone Chardonnay
In 2009, we made a luscious, well-ripened
chardonnay. It's big in style with pronounced tropical aromas of guava
and star fruit. Rich honey nuances and a touch of jasmine on the floral
side round things out nicely. It is highly viscous and mouth-coating. The
malolactic fermentation employed gives this wine a touch of creaminess
I find highly attractive.
|
2007 Cabernet Sauvignon
2007 is probably the vintage of the decade
is Suisun Valley. This wine is full of dark fruit and nice tannins. To
be consumed now or lay down.
|
2007 Estate Merlot
Gold Medal-
SF Int'l Wine Comp, Finger lakes Wine comp
This wine has a strong scent of black currants
followed by dark raisins, subsequent aromas of fully-ripened blueberries
and dark, smoky toasted oak, with final hints of red cherry, plums and
a melange of melons. Aged 15 months in French oak barrels, this wine is
truly designed to complement any occasion, especially good with roast beef
or lamb.
|
2007 Estate Syrah
This is a thoughtfull selection of estate-grown
Syrah clones that accurately conveys the true varietal character. A burst
of bright fresh stone fruit aromas makes the wine sparkle. This wine compliments
roast pork, lamb recipes, beef and other hearty dishes such as beef stew.
|
2007 GSM
The Mourvedre grape makes up the majority
(49%) of this full-blown Rhone style blend that will take you to southern
France. This wine is fruit driven with juicy, lush flavors that are complimentary
to any Mediterranean-style food.

Elkton, Umpqua AVA, Oregon
2008
Pinot Gris Pace Family Vineyard
The Pace Family Vineyard
is adjacent to our Black Oak Vineyard, on a moderately sloping west-facing
hillside. This vintage was influenced by relatively cool summer but dry
and warm October, which resulted in the grapes staying on the vine two
weeks longer than usual, which increases flavor intensity. The wine has
a powerful nose with some grassy notes, softer flavors of citrus with a
touch of vanilla, and a dry finish. We vinified the wine in the traditional
Alsatian manner in mostly older oak barrels, with seven months aging.
|
2007 Gewürztraminer
(semi-sweet)
This vintage was a great one for gewürz
which produced intensely flavored fruit. The wine was fermented and aged
in small stainless steel barrels, and bottled early to retain all of it's
freshness and zest. The wine contains 2.5% residual sugar. The wine has
a delightful ripe apple aroma along with a honeyed flavor.
|
2008
Pinot Noir - Umpqua Valley
Grapes from our two
estate vineyards as well as neighboring vineyards were the sources for
this wine. It has a complex bouquet of tobacco/smoke, delicate flavors
of cherry and vanilla, and a lingering toasty finish. The wine was aged
in a combination of French, Hungarian and American oak cooperage.
|
2007
Pinot Noir - Barrel Select
Eight barrels from
our total production of seventy six were chosen to produce this bottling.
A luxurious texture compliments a hint of smoke in the aroma, a wonderful
candied cherry flavor base and delightful complexity. The wine was aged
in 38% new Hungarian and American oak barrels.

Sonoma
2009 V Twin Zin
Made from fruit selected from an elite vineyard
on the west side of the Dry Creek Valley - home to the best Zinfandel in
the world - this Zinfandel is bursting with berry aromas and flavors of
raspberry and black cherry that typify this red varietal. Barrel aging
provides hints of oak and vanilla to the wine leaving a soft, smooth caramel
finish. The Zin's structure of tannin and fruit creates a well-balanced,
smooth wine to be enjoyed with grilled meats, spicy sauces and a wide array
of fruits and cheeses. But don't get caught-up in the food thing - we have
blended this Zin to be exceptionally smooth all by itself.
