2007 CABERNET SAUVIGNON Our “home vineyard,” is nestled in the eastern hills of Napa Valley, perched between the St. Helena and Howell Mountain Appellations. The soils and the selections of clones 6 and 337 make for a complex Cabernet that shows consistent attributes of deep color, full body, and balance from vintage to vintage. |
2010 ROSE' BUTTON & TURKOVICH VINEYARD YOLO COUNTY After pondering making a Rosé for the last several years, we finally made one in 2010 from a blend of Grenache & Viognier grapes grown, harvested and fermented with Rosé as the end goal. Following the traditional process for "true Rosés", the Viognier grapes were crushed and pressed immediately after harvest. Then the Grenache was pressed after about 28 hours of skin contact to extract only a pale hint of color. The juice was blended and co-fermented to dryness. To say that we are happy with the quality of this wine would be quite an understatement! It has become a house favorite. We only produced 120 cases. |
2007 CABERNET SAUVIGNON The Fowler Vineyard is owned by Don Fowler. This vineyard is located in the upper watershed of Knights Valley just a stones throw from the Napa county line, in the hills between the towns of Calistoga and Santa Rosa. The soils are composed of Forward and Bressa Dribble complexes and it has the steepest slopes of any of the vineyards in our line up. Because of its location the vineyard is exposed to strong afternoon breezes resulting in thicker grape skins which help to produce wines of intense color and tannin structure. The vineyard is planted using Clone 337 in its entirety. The elevation of this vineyard is about 1100 ft. above sea level. |
