60-acres of organically farmed Rhone and Italian varieties.-from Aglianico to Zinfandel. New releases: 2018 Montepulciano, 2018 Syrah. Last call 2020 Grenache Blanc, 2017 Grenache, 2017 Zinfandel.
Our 2018 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 has excellent richness, tannin structure and the right dose of acidity. For those who doubt Montepulciano is capable of making a wine with an age-worthy wine with elegance and grace-this bud's for you!
Our 2018 Syrah from the winery parcel is our version of a super-charged Saint Joseph, from the Northern Rhone. Deep color, intense violet, blackberry and blueberry aromas are followed by a juicy but structured Syrah. While this wine has more finesse than the Benchland Syrah, it has the tannin to age well over the next 5 to 8 years.
2019 Segromigno is the closest we have come to making a full-bodied, modern-style Chianti Classico. It is a blend of 70% Sangiovese and 30% Montepulciano. The bright Sangiovese cherry and fragrant fruit is balanced with tannin and structure from Montepulciano. If we made more, it would undoubtedly be our most popular wine. This 2019 shows why.
