Russian River Valley
Pinot Noir
Sweet raspberry and cherry fruit intertwined
with floral aromas cascade from the glass of this complex, savory,
medium to full-bodied Pinot. With good underlying acidity, ripe
tannin, and loads of fruit as well as texture, it is a Cores
de Nuit-like effort that should drink well for seven to eight
years.

Russian River Valley
Viognier
Classic
and appealing, this Viognier has a bright mouth wrapped in a gentle
pale straw. A harmony of pear-melon, orange, floral and sweet
spice flavors blend nicely with slight notes of mineral and honeydew
melon. A truly sophisticated wine, well balanced with crisp acidity
and a hint of oak in the finish. Full-bodied and complex. Ripe
and showy.

Primitivo
Limited Reserve
Whether Primitivo and Zinfandel grapes are
the same variety is still debated by viticulturists, however through
DNA tracing it appears the Primitivo is either the father of Zinfandel,
or the intimate mailman. The secret unfolds in this rich “rustic
" wine.
