SORRY SOLD OUT

Our first release, Wine Enthusiast 92 and a Wine & Spirits YEARS BEST, Cabernet Franc leads this layered, complex Bordeaux-style blend. Intruiging aromatics, rich black stonefruit mingling with graphite, fine tobacco, and a savory minerality, Dead ringer for a Right-Bank Bordeaux. With exposure, this built-to-age blend unfolds dense layers of deep black-fruit flavors, with espresso and bittersweet cocoa lingering on a mouthwatering finish. A special and complex wine which, like a great conversation, continues to evolve... 912 cases produced.
2022 TASTING: Stunning. Deep, lush vibrant red-black-blue fruit, expressive aromatics, expansive mid-palate, long finish. Just beautiful at 10 minutes open. Still going strong... will age many more years.

Single Bottle Price $74.00

Showcasing the dynamic beauty of cooler-climate growing, this is a plummy rich, dark, engaging wine. Good structure, heavier body after 30 minutes open. Explodes on midpalate, so many flavors mingling in a great mouthwatering finish. A little black dress on a woman of character...

2010 Virage Bordeaux Blend

750ml Bottle Price $68.00

Flavorful plum and black cherry layered
with dark chocolate and subtle baking spices. Our same
cool-climate sources, about a third from nearby Hyde Vineyards,
delivered a 'riper' wine than the prior vintages. Blended and bottled at Alpha Omega Winery in Rutherford. An expansive wine that takes you on a little journey.

2012 BOURRIQUOT
|
750ml Bottle Price $44.00
|
|
|
*Bo-Ree-Ko* Hard to say, Easy to Drink! A generous and expressive
Right-Bank blend of aromatic cab franc and deep, intense merlot.
Intriguing black cherry and plum aromas, expansive midpalate of rich
pomegranate molasses. Focusing more and more as it opens up, a
deliciously dangerous wine... Imagine biting into a perfectly ripe
black plum...first, the sweet black fruit, then a lush red middle
finishing bright and refreshing, ready for a bite or another sip. This
wine is a crowd pleaser delivered by a bumper crop of optimally ripe
fruit from the incredible 2012 vintage. UNFILTERED (pretty crystals on
the cork). Way outperforms expectation. [2022 edit: Just so good. No
wonder my neighbors buy a case every month. Highly versatile food
wine--seafood to filet mignon. Even better 2nd/3rd day open from the
frig! Looks like this burro will age well.]
