Our Wines  

In the end, what it’s all about is the wine. Everything we’ve done along the way has insured a fine, drinkable wine with a rich, complex flavor.

2009 Chardonay

2009 Chardonnay - Russian River Valley
Once again in keeping with tradition, our earlier whites were fruit forward, crisp and balanced, the Chardonnay is no exception. Chosen and processed to show its best without oak, aromas of citrus and green apple jump out followed by the lively tropical flavors of mangos, melon and a hint of pineapple. The clean long finish makes for a great cocktail wine or a light food companion.

2008 Pinot Noir

2008 Pinot Noir – Russian River Valley
At first glance, the appearance of our Pinot Noir is a brilliant medium ruby-garnet color. Upon opening, the nose is amazing, displaying bright black cherry, red berry laced with wild strawberry, complex spices and vanilla. This wine is a beautiful example of a classic Russian River Pinot.

2008 Cabernet Sauvignon / Petite Sirah

2008 Cabernet Sauvignon/Petite Sirah – Alexander Valley – Sonoma County
Bronze Medal Winner - Finger Lakes International Wine Competition
Silver Medal Winner - International Eastern Wine Competition
Having two other outstanding wines in our cellar gave us an opportunity to create an opulent blend to our own delight. A bigger richer Cabernet with deep firm flavors of macerated berries balanced with a little over the top concentration of Petite Sirah that adds distinct bramble berry, and earthy plum flavors which combine to show a consistent complexity of harmonious fruit, spice and oak that go long into the finish, a showcase of the blenders art.

2008 Petite Sirah

2008 Petite Sirah – Paso Robles
Bronze Medal Winner - Finger Lakes International Wine Competition
A first time varietal for Black Rock, this is an intense concentrated but approachable array of bramble berry, mulberry and plum that provide for captivating color and a robust lingering finish of chocolate and sweet tobacco that fill the mouth, elevate  the sensory experience and  leaves you with a little bit of wow!

2008 Cabernet Sauvignon

2008 Cabernet Sauvignon – Alexander Valley – Sonoma County
Bronze Medal Winner - International Eastern Wine Competition
Bronze Medal Winner - Finger Lakes International Wine Competition
This vintage features the same great Cabernet grapes that have been our tradition with the ability to stand on their own. From the moment of crush it was apparent rich full flavors abound. The complexity of the growing season shows through with blackcurrant, dark cherries and fresh cut cedar. Extensive aging in mostly French oak continues the flavor ride with toasty almond notes and a hint of vanilla that, in all, reflects our excitement at harvest time.

Gold Medal Winner - International Eastern Wine Competition
Silver Medal Winner - 2008 World Wine Championship

Our 2005 features the same great Cabernet grapes from the Alexander Valley in Sonoma County, California featured in our 2004, but this time we've added a small percentage of Syrah grapes. The result is a deeper, richer, bolder, more complex flavor than our 2004. With overtones of almond coconut and black currents, aroma of dark mocha and a velvety chocolate on the finish adding to the complexity of this outstanding vintage.

2005 Cabernet Sauvignon

2004 Cabernet Sauvignon – Alexander Valley – Sonoma County - Second Release
Bronze Medal Winner - 2008 World Wine Championship
Bronze Medal Winner - International Eastern Wine Competition
Bronze Medal Winner - Finger Lakes International Wine Competition
This offering features the same great cabernet grapes from the Alexander Valley in Sonoma County, California. This wine has been aged longer in our French and American oak barrels and in the bottle. The result is the same robust and full-bodied wine, deeply colored, tannin rich, and the flavor is impressively long. The longer barrel time has imbued the wine with slightly mellower palate and a smoother finish. It has also enhanced the subtle overtones of blackberries, spicy black pepper and vanilla on the finish.

2005 Cabernet Sauvignon

2007 Sauvignon Blanc
Our first white wine, this elegant Sauvignon Blanc is created from Napa Valley grapes and shows bright fruit aromas. This bracing, mouth-watering wine fills the palate with a well integrated mix of bright fruit, with just a hint of tingly liveliness. Balanced and with a solid structure, our 2007 Sauvignon Blanc works well with a variety of fish and lighter, roasted game dishes.

This is an outstanding white wine from Napa Valley, California; it will be ready for release this spring. This Pinot Grigio is refreshing, well balanced and fruity.

Handling Your Wine
Like any complex wine, we recommend that you open and allow the wine to breath for an hour before drinking if possible. Or the wine can be decanted. This will allow the wine to be at its peak flavor for your enjoyment.
