- Made from Dijon clone 777, Block 5 is very expressive aromatically in the plum, raspberry, blueberry and violet spectrum. The palate is mouth-coating with impressive length and concentration. Tannins are fine-grained and silky.
- Block 7’s aromatics are classic Shea Wädenswil: blue fruited and floral with warm spice notes. The lush, savory blue fruit continues on the palate with hints of allspice and black currant. Tannins are structured and the wine is beautifully balanced. We find Block 7, in particular, responds well to cellaring.

- As former winemaster of Joseph Phelps Vineyards, Walter Schug was a pioneer of botrytis affected late harvest Rieslings in the 1970's. This bottling under his own SCHUG label reflects nearly 60 years of winemaking experience in both the US and Germany. Botrytis cinerea, the noble rot, affected the grapes after late season rains, concentrating the sugar while leaving the acidity in perfect balance. It has pronounced flavors of apricot and spiced pears, with a high residual sugar content that is balanced by a refreshing burst of acidity on the finish. It is the perfect match for delicate desserts, including almond cookies, crème brûlée and poached pears.
- Baby Poux (pronounced "baby poo") Vineyard is named for owner Paul Champoux. It was the first block he planted after taking over the famous Mercer Ranch Vineyards. Somebody dubbed it "Baby Poux" and it stuck! This wine has a distinct supple quality, very rich in exuberant fruit. As this vineyard matures the wine gets still more intense and complex.
- This West Hill release is made from a blend of Wädenswil, Dijon 777, Dijon 114 and Pommard clone fruit, all sourced from different blocks on Shea Vineyard’s West Hill. The beautiful aromatics draw you in with whiffs of blueberry, red currant and raspberry. The palate surprises with concentration, silky tannins and a great finish.
