Double Gold - Best of the Best - Wine Press NW 2016

Gold - Indy International Wine Competition - 2016

A wine that really shows off the terroir of our old vine Cabernet, starting off with dark aromas of very black fruit, black currant, and a hint of Oregon mint, with flavors of blackberry, currant, smoky oak, and ripe plum all on a firm, tight grained structure built for aging.  Truly special paired with blue cheese.

A dark, dense, almost brooding style of Cabernet desrving of a Reserve label, with abundant flavors and aromas of black cherry, black currant, and toasted oak, ending wit rich, ripe, chewy tannins.  Needs some cellar time or pairing with a big, thick steak to truly appreciate.

Gold – 2023 Texas International Wine Competition

A very elegant style blend opening with wonderful red fruit and red cherry aromas.  Next comes the flavors of ripe red plums and Ranier cherries, with hints of coconut, clove and French oak spice.  Great paired with almost any red meat, or maybe try with grilled eggplant with a red tomato sauce for something unusual.

A dark, medium bodied Malbec with explosive, in your face aromas of lavendar and violets, followed by flavors of just ripening blackberries, black cherry, and plums, with touches of black pepper and clove. Great with grilled fish and strong cheeses.

Gold - San Francisco Chronicle

This dark, dense Petite opens with aromas of blackberry, nutmeg and cigar box.  The flavors and tannins are very long and silky, totally covering your entire palette with ripe blackberry jam, dark chocolate, ripe fig, with hints of anise and tobacco.  Try with some toasted sourdough bread and fresh olive oil for a special treat.

Double Gold – Texas International Wine Competition

A darker, dense, almost brooding style of Cabernet deserving a Reserve label, with abundant aromas and flavors of red and black currant, black cherry, and toasted oak, finishing with rich, ripe, chewy tannins.  Will benefit greatly from extended cellar time, or enjoy now with your favorite grilled steak!

A wonderfully aromatic Cab Franc opening with red plum, ripe red pepper, earth and leather aromas, followed by spicy red cherry, fully integrated oak tannins, dark chocolate, and touches of coconut. Begs to be paired with leg of lamb or maybe eggplant parmesan with grilled vegetables.

Deep purple color. Aromas and flavors of coated nuts, frosted carrot cake, and coffee gelato with a silky, bright, dry-yet-fruity medium-to-full body and a smooth, layered, long finish with accents of blackberry pie a la mode, roasted peppers, chocolate craisins, and brown spices with toothsome, chewy tannins and moderate oak flavor. An excellent Cabernet with great herbal varietal character, ripe fruit, and spicy oak

Ruby color. Fruity, oaky, savory aromas of black raspberry, balsamic vinegar, hot chocolate powder, and brett with a velvety, lively, dry medium body and a smooth, interesting, medium-long black cherry, cigar box, dried porcini, and violet finish with fine, well-integrated, drying tannins and moderate oak flavor. This Cabernet has a dense rich nose yet a surprisingly light palate.

Silver - San Francisco Chronicle

A vibrant, medium-bodied wine starting with wonderful red currant and red cherry notes, flavors of juicy red fruits with some chocolate coming along for the ride, finishing with tongue tickling freshness.   Ready to drink now, but will cellar extremely well for at least a decade.

A darker, heavier Carmenere than most, with aromas and flavors of black cherry, smoked herbs, and black olive, finishing with notes of tobacco, eggplant and black tea.  Needs a strong pairing, perhaps elk, roasted lamb, grilled eggplant or even asparagus.

This fantastic blend of all six red Bourdeaux grapes, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec, Petit Verdot, and Carmenere.  Flavors and aromas of brighter red fruits, violets, and black currant with touches of salty vanilla smoothly glide to a long, elegant finish.  This party of six is ready to join your table!
