Smooth, spicy, currant and plum flavors…. It is lush, subtle and evocative - This wine is eloquent with Silky and elegant with flavors of raspberry and cherry…
- This wine is more toward red fruit than black on the nose, with wild mushroom and woodland notes lending aromatic complexity. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, bay leaf and cold-stewed black tea infusing the red berry fruit with a welcome touch of spice on the harmonious finish. Excellent.

- A blend of all the best Shea Vineyard has to offer. This wine has raspberry, dark cherry, plum and rose aromatics. On the palate the wine displays savory notes of clove, cinnamon, black tea and carob. It is luscious and broad, highlighted by fine-grained tannins, well-balanced acidity, and a long, mouth-watering finish.
- Rich, complex aromatics of blackberry, cassis, cocoa and coffee, a concentrated palate of dark juicy fruits and a succulent finish that goes on and on. This is a dark, brooding beauty.
- 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.
- This wine is from a 1990 planting of Pommard Clone vines in Shea Vineyard's West Hill area. This wine is all about bright, focused, dark fruit. This Pinot is intense and has a beautiful purity of flavor. Dark garnet color. Nose of black cherries, ripe plums and fragrant spices. Palate of wild berries and fleshy tannins.
- 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.
- An excellent wine for food pairing, our chardonnay is full of stone fruit aromas of ripe peach and nectarine coupled with fresh notes of vanilla. Vibrant acidity frames layers of ripe fruit leading to a concentrated, long finish you’ll keep coming back to.
