Red Wine
2022 Baco Noir
Aromas of candied bacon, black fruits, and ripe plum. Smooth with low tannins, medium to high acidity with long lasting soft finish.
2022 Umpqua Pinot Noir
The grapes were grown with full sun exposure for all of the full-bodied and ripeness possible. Dark burgundy in color and aroma is a combination of cherry jam and a hand full of caramel-coated Spanish peanuts. The flavors are tarter with cranberries fighting not-so-ripe raspberries for supremacy. Tiny traces of roasted pork, lemon and cumin show up on the long finish. Pairs well with food. 20% whole cluster. 6 months French oak. Melrose Vineyard Wind Machine Rows.
2020 Pinotage – Limited Release
This grape originated in S.A. as a cross pollination between Pinot Noir and Cinsault. Here we refine the wine in the cellar by pressing off the skins early to avoid over extracting. The result is a wonderful wine that has a potpourri and berry aroma. The palate has notes of pomegranate and raspberry with an unmistakable velvet soft full body. Neutral French oak for 5 months. Melrose Vineyard / Southfork Vineyard.
2018 Merlot

2020 Syrah

2020 Tempranillo
Aromas of brambleberry preserve, toast, graham cracker and crème brulee invite you into this bright red wine. Tastes of plum, kiwi, leather, and ginger follow. It has round full tannins and a long crisp finish.
