2005 Artistry Proprietary Blend
Napa Valley

Our 2005 Artistry is a proprietary blend of 5 Bordeaux-varietal grapes. The varietals and percentages will change from year to year, with a goal of keeping the wine consistent in q ...moreuality and style. The 2005 vintage is a brilliantly-colored, dark garnet wine with aromas of baked cherries, dark plum, lavender, cinnamon, allspice and freshly cut herbs. There are also hints of tobacco, leather and toasted pecan. On the palate, this smooth-textured wine offers a full-mouth, medium bodied feel. The firm tannins are very well integrated, making the wine elegant and approachable at an early age. There are multiple layers to this complex blend that reveal themselves through decanting or by giving the wine time to open up in the glass.

2003 Roger's Fault Bordeaux Blend
Dry Creek Valley

This wine's name may sound like we made a mistake, but as soon as you sip this beauty you'll wonder why we didn't make it years sooner. A Bordeaux varietal blend, Roger's Fault is ...more37% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot and 28% Cabernet Franc.

Smooth, rich aromas of currant and blackberry are laced with dried herbs and a touch of cigar box and leather. The velvety mouthfeel caresses opulent flavors of plum, currant, fresh blackberries, cedar and coffee. It's drinkable now, with great cellaring potential. Pair our '03 Roger's Fault wine with appetizers, the main course or dessert. A roaring fire or an ocean view will work well, too.

2004 SAGE
Paso Robles

This Bordeaux blend is unique! A blend of 50% Malbec/50% Petit Verdot, most wineries wouldnâ€™t dare put these two varietals together without some percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon ...moreor Merlot because of the high tannic structure. But we thought differently. Hints of raisins, plum, and tobacco from the Malbec paired with blackcurrants and the lovely scent of violets from the Petit Verdot make this wine both great to drink now or in 15 years.
