Aromas of fresh watermelon\, guava\, red cherry\, and a whisper of passion fruit rise from the glass\, drawing you in for the first sip. On the palate\, lush peach\, stone fruit\, and ripe raspberry unfold with a splash of grapefruit zest. Bright acidity keeps it crisp and refreshing\, while juicy layers carry through to a long\, mouthwatering finish.\nRated 91 Joseph Suckling \nGewürztraminer\n“… opens with an alluring\, perfumed bouquet – rose petals\, lychee\, and citrus layered over a whisper of mineral and wet stone. Bright acidity lifts flavors of crisp apple\, pear\, and grapefruit\, while hints of stone fruit and spice add depth. Lush yet refined\, it finishes clean and vibrant\, leaving a lasting impression of freshness and finesse.”\nRated 90 Joseph Suckling \nEstate Chardonnay\n“…a full bodied\, well balanced Chardonnay with loads of fresh fruit flavors. Aromas of apple\, pear\, vanilla along with floral notes and hint of oak from the minimal barrel aging fill the glass. Fresh fruit flavors of pear\, apple\, nectarine\, juicy peach and tropical fruits along with slight citrus notes are balanced by the rich mouthfeel and slight minerality on the finish.”\nRated 91 Joseph Suckling \nEstate Zinfandel\n“…great color\, with a dark purple and red hue. There are spicy\, earthy aromas of dark fruits\, black cherry\, black pepper\, plum\, and strawberry. The 2021 Zinfandel is a spicy wine with rich flavors of black and red cherry\, plum\, boysenberry\, black pepper\, apricot and chocolate….with great balance and a nice clean finish.”\nRated 92 Joseph Suckling \nEstate Cabernet Franc\n“…deeply colored wine with dark fruit aromas of black cherry\, black plum\, cassis\, blueberry\, highlighted by earthy and hints of oak\, vanilla\, and mocha. This is followed by juicy flavors of cassis\, plum\, black cherry\, vanilla\, blueberry\, and hints of oak. This is beautifully textured wine with a polished and refined finish.”\nRated 92 Joseph Suckling \nEstate Cabernet Sauvignon\n“… easily recognizable as classic Alexander Valley with medium body\, bright berry flavors and smooth\, structured tannins. Winemaker Kevin Hall blended in Malbec and Petit Verdot for color\, Merlot for a hint of structured dark fruit\, and a touch of Cabernet Franc for aromatics….earthy aromas of black cherry\, cassis\, plum\, cherry\, hints of chocolate\, vanilla and oak. In the glass there are balanced flavors of black cherry\, plum\, cassis\, and chocolate….with firm tannins and a chewy finish that goes on and on.\nRated 93 Joseph Suckling \nCyrus (Bordeaux Blend)\n“This dark purple wine is filled with layered fruit aromas that hint at the complex flavors in the glass. Cassis\, black cherry\, cherry\, dark chocolate\, vanilla and oak aromas lead to similar flavors. This vintage is a timeless classic with integrated tannins\, beautiful balance\, and a long\, structured finish.”\nRated 93 Wine Enthusiast; 93 Joseph Suckling
