2005 Verve Sonoma Mountain
Appellation: Sonoma Mountain
Syrah
Winemaker: Loren Tayerle
This wine made from mature hillside vines has ripe, deep and exotic layered aromas built around plums, smoke and earth. The rich palate shows multiple layers of concentrated black fruit with chocolate, spices and roasted flavors. The wine has a full and smooth palate that displays a linearity and purity of fruit. The finish lingers with fruit freshness and acidity. Wine will gain in depth and complexity if decanted at room temperature for 2 or 3 hours before serving.

2008 van der Kamp Vineyard Pinot noir
View Label
Appellation: Sonoma Mountain
Winemaker: Greg Bjornstad
Tasting Notes: Pretty, brilliant garnet color and aromas of dark ripe cherries and berries fill the glass along with smoky, toasty layers of spices, black tea, sandalwood and cedar. On the palate, the entry is round and rich and the fruit flavors flirt back and forth between red pie cherries and black raspberries alongside earthy qualities and forest duff. The texture builds from the beginning to a round, mouth coating middle with a long persistent finish. Over time, the flavors continue to e...

2004 Estate Cabernet
View Label
Appellation: Sonoma Mountain
Cabernet Sauvignon
We have shown this vintage only to Steve Tanzer, who had this to say about it over a year ago, when it was still in barrel: Good bright ruby-red. Musky, rather wild nose combines black cherry, licorice, menthol and dark chocolate. Densely packed and sweet, with some superripe qualities to the flavors of cherry liqueur and chocolate. Not quite as suave in its integration of acidity as the fine 2002, but this offers more satisfying mouth coverage than the 2003. Finishes with substantial sweet tann...

2007 Red Dog-Pommard Clone Pinot Noir
Appellation: Sonoma Mountain
Winemaker: Scott Rich
This bottling represents the essence of the Pommard clone. The nose is sexy, fruit-forward and aromatic. Texturally, this wine is full and meaty, one of the hallmarks of the Pommard clone. The flavors are predominantly blue plum, blackberry and blueberry supported by tannins that are rich and silky, providing a great structure. The finish is juicy, fruit-filled and very persistent.

2007 Red Dog Vineyard-Dijon Clones
View Label
Appellation: Sonoma Mountain
Pinot Noir
Winemaker: Scott Rich
Although this wine has its feet firmly grounded in California, several winemakers who tasted this wine in barrel felt that it also shared some of the best characteristics of red Burgundy wines – spicy, perfumed aromas with hints of tobacco and a focus on the red fruit spectrum. This wine is quite aromatic and displays a great deal of finesse in the mouth, with soft, velvety tannins set as a foil against the slightly acidic backbone, lending great structure to the wine. The palate is dominated ...

Organic - Made from 100% Organic Grapes

Pinot Noir

Ruby color; pronounced spice bouquet with sour cherry/earth aromas. Fruit-driven entry that gives way to firm, acidic mid-palate and lengthy, balanced finish. This wine will evolve in your glass.

2004 Cabernet Sauvignon
View Label
Appellation: Sonoma Mountain
Winemaker: Lynda Hanson
The Cabernet from this vineyard produces a sturdy full-bodied wine with plenty of rich tannins, making it both age worthy and enjoyable in its youth. The aroma has good intensity, dominated by black fruit (blueberry and black cherry in particular) with notes of spice and vanilla. On the palate this Cabernet achieves the elusive combination of power and finesse, the proverbial iron fist in a velvet glove. We expect that this wine will continue to fill out, soften and gain finesse for several year...
