Our 2022 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon has aromas of raspberry and Morello cherry. The aromas are framed by hints of cedar and cherry wood. The palate is soft and bursting with flavors of red and black fruits, pie filling and ripe plum. The finish is rich, with subtle yet prevalent rustic tannins.
Meghan’s recommended recipe:

Our 2023 Grenache Blanc has aromas of white peaches, jasmine, apricot, and a touch of honey. The entry is soft and rich, with underlying acidity and flavors of meyer lemon, honeydew, and ripe tangerine. The finish has soft edges from the lees stirring, creating a balanced, mouth-coating texture with great density.
Meghan’s recommended recipes:

Aromas of green apple, pear and citrus fill the glass. The crisp, fresh entry is layered with flavors of green apple, lemon zest and a touch of sourdough. The finish is lengthy and rich, showing varietal Picpoul Blanc expression.

The 2023 Effervescent Rosé offers delightful aromas of strawberry, rose petals, and papaya. The crisp, bubbly entry reveals flavors of watermelon and raspberry, culminating in a refreshing, clean finish.
