April 10, 2019
Two weekends ago, Russ Winston from the Modesto Bee dropped by for a tasting. Here are his impressions.
Our Wines
White
2019 Grenache Blanc - 11.6% alc, 50 cases produced
Reminiscent of Fumé Blanc wines popularized in the 1990's, with citrus, grassy, and French oak influences. Low alcohol and high acidity make this an excellent summer sipper.
$22 / bottle
2021 Roussanne - 14.8% alc, 53 cases produced
French in character, emphasizing an oily palate with lemon and honeysuckle aromas.
$22 / bottle
Red
2017 Tempranillo – 13.6% alc, 50 cases produced
Medium violet in color. This Spanish red features a spicy nose with graham cracker, raw meat, and copper penny. Low acidity with moderate, tensile tannins.
$28 / bottle
Silver Medal - 2021 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition
2018 Syrah – 15.9% alc, 56 cases produced
Dark and very ripe but still dry. Candied fruit and ample tannins. Another good barbeque wine.
$28 / bottle
2018 Wegat Vineyard Old Vine Zinfandel – 15.4% alc, 25 cases produced
From a vineyard on Lodi's west side planted in 1958. Ethereal and layered with hints of cloudberry, coffee, and vanilla followed by ample viscous tannins and a long aftertaste.
$28 / bottle
Silver Medal - 2022 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition
2018 Maribor Reserve Red Wine - 15.3% alc, 50 cases produced
A blend of 40% Wegat Zin, 20% Mohr-Fry Zin, and 40% Petite Sirah. Truly a wine different than a sum of its parts. Hedonistic aromatics include puréed blackberry, gamey meats, and French oak notes. Juicy and extracted with round, front-to-back tannins, this wine finishes fleshy and impeccably balanced.
$34 / bottle
Silver Medal - 2022 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition
2019 Malbec - 12.0% alc, 75 cases produced
Bright red fruit and fresh red meat with a spicy cinnamon component, offering an acidic structure which will pair well with a variety of continental foods.
$28 / bottle
2019 Graciano - 13.1% alc, 57 cases produced
This dark wine offers pancetta, smoky oak, and graham cracker aromatics. It is well-structured and will reward aging.
$28 / bottle
2019 Teroldego - 14.1% alc, 57 cases produced
A saturated, inky color introduces this deep wine featuring brownies, brown sugar, baking spices, and French oak hints. On the palate, dense, fat tannins, yet balanced overall.
$28 / bottle
2021 Pinotage - 14.8% alc, 50 cases produced
Goes back and forth whether it emphasizes its Pinot Noir or Rhone parentages. Light-bodied and easy drinking.
$28 / bottle
