Well the 2011 Harvest/Crush is winding down. We just pressed off the last lot of Merlot.

In the vineyard, the leaves have changed colors -- from green, to yellow, to orange and finally to brown. With each new wind, they are finding their way to the ground. The vines are going to bed (dormant) for the winter.

Before their winter rest though, we're giving them a big drink of water and planting a cover crop of barley and peas. The cover crop will prevent erosion, provide nutrients for next year's crop, and give the sheep something to "mow" over the winter.

Our Sangiovese blends the best elements of the old world with the new world in a seamless fashion.

Tasting Notes     •     Recipe

12 bottles of our 2009 Langosta for only $100.00 -- This limited case sale only available while supplies last.

Fresh and zesty citrus aromas initially envelop the senses, aided by floral accents that lead to a creamy, rich mouthfeel extending through the lengthy finish.  With outgoing and persistent flavors of Asian pear, melon and quince, Langosta is dry and crisp while offering an appealing degree of viscosity via the addition of oak-aged Semillon.
