Each year's wines possess their own unique character and flavors that develop in a long series of "acts" directed by none other than the winemaker himself. It is in this final blend of the year that 12 barrels of various supporting actors come together in a beautiful embodiment of synergy; this wine is a creation in which the whole is truly greater than the sum of its parts. This blend is 35% Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Petite Sirah, 17.5% Zinfandel & 17.5% Barbera.
Symphony is a grape created at UC Davis in the late 1940's. It is a cross between Muscat of Alexandria and Grenache Gris. Our 2023 is 10.5% alcohol with a very lovely fragrant nose and semi sweet. Wonderful any time of the year but particularly refreshing during our warm summer months.
Viognier provides us with a rich and full-bodied style wine. Though the historical origin is unknown there is great possibility it came from Dalmatia, which is present day Croatia. Viognier seeks out sunny regions and cool nights, which helps the varietal to maintain its precious acidity and this is what makes Lodi AVA, a perfect place to grow Viognier.
This will be one you will want to swirl in your glass and enjoy with someone you love.
An elegant blend of our Cabernet Sauvignon and Petite Sirah. This dark and bold red wine is full bodied and nicely structured, leaving a nice lingering mouth feel.
As it's brilliant pink pigment glistens in your glass, this rosé smells of crisp apple and pear with delicate floral hints. Flavors intensify at first sip revealing bright notes of cranberry and ruby red grapefruit that are perfectly accentuated by the wine's cool refreshing acidity.
Spicy Old Vine Zinfandel from the Mokelumne River sub-AVA. Harvested from a 90 year old vineyard adjacent to our Estate, this wine embodies the full complexity of the old vines' character.
Tawny style port, 10 years old, made with Tempranillo and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. The most decadent of our ports with flavors of caramel, nut, raisin and toffee. The perfect wine for a special moment.
A grape of Italian origin, Barbera is best known for its high levels of natural acidity coupled with a propensity to ripen relatively late. These innate varietal characteristics sing in perfect harmony with Lodi's long hot summers by allowing the grapes ample time on the vine. When fully ripened, sugar levels exceed the acids resulting in a perfectly well-balanced wine, eagerly enticing the palate for another sip.
Barbera, like most black grapes, contains a white flesh inside its dark outer skin. Traditionally used to make red wine, Barbera is an Italian varietal best known for its high levels of natural acidity coupled with bright fruity qualities. By carefully eliminating any skin to juice contact during the crushing and fermentation process, we have created a uniquely refreshing wine reminiscent of “summertime in a glass.” This brilliant full-bodied white wine resonates with vibrant acidity, singing in unison with its bounty of crisp fruit flavor.
