- The Pinot Noir from Soberanes Vineyard is traditionally our most perfumed and aromatic wine in the cellar. Beautiful, elegant and pure, while at the same time rich and complex, the Soberanes Pinot Noir is a wine that shows remarkably well young or after aging for some time in the cellar.
- Deep, dark garnet in color, the bright nose exhibits plums, raspberry and blackberries. The rich yet not overripe flavors of red-vine licorice, anise, spicy strawberry, and red currants are full-bodied and true to the varietal. The Petite Sirah in the blend contributes black pepper spice, racy acidity and firm structure, and gives this wine a rustic personality. The moderate oak contributes subtle vanilla and a smoky nuance..
- Explosive Blackberry jam juxtaposed with dusty brambly earth. Incredibly Smooth as well .
- Petite Sirah from the Russian River Valley adds meatiness and brings out a dried sage scent in the fiery spice of this zin, which includes old-vine fruit from the Maple Vineyard and some cool-climate zin from Parmelee-Hill on the Sonoma Coast.
- Mouth-filling tannins with subtle cigar & black cherry notes followed by a long, distinguished finish
- Strawberries and red cherries alongside the blue fruit. Peppery, spicy, with a zingy, tangy, acid pink grapefruit.
- As seen on the Today Show - An intense Proprietor’s blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot, and Syrah. Concentrated core of blackberry fruit and full aromatic ripeness in this exemplary wine.
- Crisp, clean finish and its beautiful golden color make this stainless Chardonnay a winner!
- A highly aromatic bouquet of honeysuckle, ripe with peach and apricot flavors with a bright, clean finish.
- This wine is more voluptuous than in most, with a nose full of cherry and raspberry. A great mouthfeel leads to cassis, currant and blackberry flavors. The finish is long and earthy with a hint of spice. This is a great bargain.
- Bold, complex and quite ripe, with black raspberry and smoky spice aromas and cherry, toasty sage and herb flavors that pack a slight burn on the finish. For fans of the style.
- Fragrant, fruit-packed and luxurious on the palate, the 2012 Old Kraft Vineyard Zinfandel is perhaps our favorite vintage - so far. Gentle tannins, rounded edges and an array of blackberry, black cherry, black tea, plum preserves, warm stones, shoe leather, and brown spice notes evolve in the glass and promise a bright and long future in the bottle.
- Texturally near perfect and brimming with fragrant dark fruit – blackberry, cherry, plum, ollalie berry compote, currant liqueur, clay, baked clay, fresh Provençale herbs, meatiness and minerals galore. This is a superb rendition of a classic Napa Valley red wine – showing all the attributes of the valley world renowned. Some years in the cellar will broaden the palate even further and add more grace notes to its already broad spectrum of aromas.
- No component dominates and all work seamlessly together in an unctuous package. An interplay of textures and flavors, with stunning aromas of blackberry, dark fruits, dried fruit, black cherry, red fruits such as strawberries, spices, flowers, minerals, graphite, roasted herbs, baked dark bread and chocolate ganache are integrated and proportioned across a foundation of perfect mouth feel, cohesive acidity, and unctuous fruit.
- Juicy and ripe, with terrific, vivid blackberry cobbler, plum, huckleberry, licorice, spice and floral overtones. Offers great concentration and dense tannins that stay out of the way of the sandalwood, espresso and cedar details as they crescendo on the finish.
- Imagine pomegranate and strawberry braised with Provençale Herbs; a fresh ocean breeze with madrone, pine, and oak treas. Velvety and voluptuous softness, a ripe peach-like roundness and built on airy, sculptured tannin frame. This classy, complex, crowd-pleasing new-world blend excites all old world red-wine lovers.
- Sourced primarily from Biale’s estate vineyards in the Oak Knoll district. Round, plush, a gentle grip of perfectly ripe tannins, a spectrum of red and dark fruits – raspberries, cherries, blackberries, watermelon, bright vivid aromas, fine-grained texture, star anise, cinnamon, cumin, coriander, black and white pepper, cocoa, subtle nuanced oak. Age worthy, compelling, decadent: a beautifully proportioned Napa Valley Zinfandel. If cellared well, this wine will continue to improve for the next 3-5 years.
