Vineyard pedigree matters, even with Rosé. We make our Rosé from 21 year-old Grenache Noir and Mourvedre, organically farmed. At the risk of sounding elitist, a Rosé is NOT a classic Rosé when made from just any grape variety. For us, Southern French Rosé, which is made from Grenache and Mourvedre reigns supreme. We have only made rosé from our estate Grenache and Mourvedre since 2002. Our 2019 Rosé really shows the bright intense fruit and spice of Grenache combined with the body and texture of Mourvedre. If you are a fan of Bandol wines, and want to try a Dry Creek Valley version, this is your gig. Estate Grown, Dry Creek Valley, Sonoma County.

88% Grenache, 12% Mourvedre.

All aboard the Vermentino Train!

If there were such a thing as a Loire Valley style of Vermentino, this  2019 would be it. Vermentino is known for its expressive floral and fruity aromas and flavors. However, even the best Italian versions don't have this type of acidity, and we aren't afraid to show it. Fermented in stainless steel, aged in concrete this is an intense, yet well balanced white that will surely encourage others to plant in Dry Creek Valley.

The 2019 Vermentino was bottled April 8th. In light of the current conditions, we are shipping this wine immediately in hopes you will give it a few weeks before opening. I love this wine!

 Fiano is the most noble grape from the town of Avelino in Italy's Campania region. We planted 1.1 acre of Fiano in 2012 thinking it would respond well to our Mediterranean climate here in Sonoma County's Dry Creek Valley. We were right. This 2019 Fiano has the classic honey, beeswax, almond and pear quality the grape is known for. It was fermented and aged in concrete to retain is varietal character without oak. Dry and crisp, this wine is very European.

Barbera is definitely one of our favorite varieties. Our 2018 comes from two clones of Barbera planted in 1998 and 2007 on our estate. Our selective approach in the vineyard combined with a great growing season resulted in a wine that resembles high-end Barbera from Asti. Cooler than normal weather in late August, early September resulted in enhanced aromas and fruit. This wine reminds me of our very successful 2015 vintage. Drink now and over the next 2 to 3 years.

This 100% Montepulciano comes from our two best vineyard blocks planted in 2005 and 2007. Our 2017 is perhaps our most intense and complex Montepulciano ever. Expressive aromas of blackberry, blueberry, cassis and semi-sweet chocolate will have you swirling and sniffing this wine longer than you might expect.  The fruit is backed up with a wine that posseses excellent richness, tannin structure and the right dose of acidity. For those who doubt Montepulciano is capable of making a wine with an ageworthy wine with  elegance and grace-this bud's for you!

By far our best Sangiovese comes from this "West Terrace" Hillside vineyard, planted in 1992. Now that the vnes are getting older it produces really complelling, structured, dare I say Brunello-like Sangiovese. Cool August weather really allowed our Sangiovese to develop a deeper fruit compenent than in 2016 yet it definitely has the depth and tannin to age for many years (at least 10) to come. I guess as Untis, we are genetically pre-disposed to love Sangiovese. That notwithdatanding, this might be my favorite Unti wine ever.

Cuvee Foudre is our statement about the possibility of making a Rhone blend worthy of the best Chateaunef du Papes. Not surprisingly it has been our most critically acclaimed wine. The 2017 CF, comes three of our best vineyard blocks planted in 1998 - Grenache Noir Alban clone, the original Mourvedre and Syrah clone 383.  The Grenache Alban clone is always our most expressive, while the Mourvedre and Syrah play a key role in giving this wine a complexity and structure.  Like all of our 2017s this CF has a brighter fruit component to go along with the depth and richness you've come to expect from one of our best wines. And yes, this wine will age well over the next 6 to 10 years.

2018 is another excellent vintage for this blend of Central Italian grapes. Thanks to better farming practices (more extensive crop thinning) and scrutiny of the vineyard blocks used, Segromigno is more complex in previous vintages. This "Lot 2" features Sangiovese in the lead, similar to our 2017 Segromigno. The cool August resulted in longer hang time for the grapes resulting in a deep colored and intensely fruity wine (cherry and blueberry) with great natural acidity and tannin structure. While this wine can be injoyed now, it will age gracefully fo several years (3 to 5) years to come much like vineyard designate Chianti. 380 cases produced.
