The Lover's Leap blend, previously named Petit Patriarche, is a tribute to one of our family's favorite spots in El Dorado County,  Leap into this casual Rhone style blend that you can enjoy at home or in the high country. 

The inspiration for this wine came from our winemakers’ trip to Spain where they walked one of the Camino de Santiago routes and became enamored with the young red wines there.  There they were told by a local that they were “poco loco” for making such a journey and the name stuck.

We bottle several different Mourvedres.  This "classic" blending of Mourvedre contains aromas of blueberry, fig, morel mushrooms and pine. In the mouth there is a perception of a bright huckleberry reduction sauce and down the hatch brings a long, mouth-filling, creamy finish.

This 25% Mourvedre, 75% Syrah has ripe blueberries and blackberry fruit.  There’s a creaminess to it along with fresh flowers, hints of coffee and cocoa, black pepper and a bit of turmeric or maybe curry powder.  It has a long creamy, fruity finish with mild tannins and coffee on the end.  

This Cinsaut has fresh ripe strawberries, cherries and currants. Look for violets, fennel pollen and caramel aromatics too. It’s silky in the mouth with a toasty finish.

Fermented with the stems!  Loads of blackberry pie aromatics along with cedar and a long finish of polished firm tannins.

This vintage has savory tomato qualities that open to meatiness.  Keep swirling your glass and a floral quality emerges not unlike lilies.  Dive in deeper and you start to get chocolate, menthol and Syrah’s classic varietal character, smoke.  Easy tannins and a long ripe fruit finish make for one tasty wine.

Blueberries, blackberry, toasty oak, soft tannins and bright acidity.
