2005 Rhys Alpine Vineyard Chardonnay
Santa Cruz Mountains

January, 2008- The difficult 2005 weather produced just a single barrel of concentrated Chardonnay from our Alpine Vineyard. As in the past, this bottling shows the complex rainwat ...moreer, minerals, and lemon rind character that we have come to expect from this vineyard. This is a very powerful wine, and the almost searing youthful intensity begs for a few years of cellaring. We wish we had more!

2006 Estate Sauvignon Blanc
Arroyo Grande Valley

A perfect reflection of the superb quality of its growing season, the 2006 Estate Sauvignon Blanc gives
complex aromas of gooseberry, white currant, lime and a touch of wet ...morestone. Dry, medium bodied, and very
well defined, the wine continues on the palate with nice minerality and a clean, zesty finish. This wine has
wonderful balance and will gain even greater complexity with short-term age. Try it as an aperitif, with grilled
asparagus wrapped in prosciutto and sprinkled with goat cheese.

2006 Estate Chardonnay
Arroyo Grande Valley

Hints of mineral, grilled nuts, toast and anise along with more dominant notes of orange blossom are
present in the aroma of the 2006 Estate Chardonnay. On the palate, the f ...morelavors are consistent with past
vintages: lemon, hints of pineapple, and subtle mineral tones. The texture is a bit softer and richer and the
flavors more concentrated than the 2005 vintage. This versatile wine pairs well with filet of sole, halibut or
grilled chicken breast.

2006 Sonoma County Pinot Noir
Russian River Valley

A new wine in our line up, the Sonoma County Pinot Noir is a gentle, fruit driven wine that is focused on it's ability to pair with food. The nose is greeted with fresh, red fruit ...more like strawberry, raspberry and dried cranberry. Similarly on the palate, generous amounts of cherry and strawberry are evident. Ninety percent of the blend was aged in twice or three times used barrels in an effort to minimize the oak influence and to maintain the gentle characteristics of Pinot Noir.

2006 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir
Russian River Valley

The 2006 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir highlights the great growing conditions we had during late September into early October. Across the board, yields were slightly higher com ...morepared to 2005 which allowed us to be more aggressive with our pruning which ensured proper vine balance. Due to a slightly warmer year, flavors were able to more fully develop. Cool nights were consistent which naturally balanced out the sunny days, giving us the ability to ripen the fruit but maintain structure and backbone. The blend is comprised of 4 vineyards: Martinelli, Bachigalupi, Toboni, and Mononi. The wine shows remarkable richness and density. Layers of dark berries and ripe, red fruit like cranberry and raspberry lead on the nose. Similar fruit flavors greet the palate and are joined with gentle, baking spices like clove or cinnamon. Soft tannins accentuate the natural acidity of the wine, creating an elegant mouth feel. This wine will be very accessible in its youth but should continue to develop gracefully over the next 5-6 years.

2006 Longbow Pinot Noir
Russian River Valley

This blend is our winemaker's selection of select vineyard blocks and specifically chosen coopers. From year to year the individual lots that make up this wine might change but th ...moree style remains the same: rich and lifted aromatics, dense and focused flavors and broad, velvety textures. Aromatically, the wine begins with clear, concentrated notes of ripe cherry and dark berries. On the nose, the fruit elements combine with hints of smoke and sandalwood. The palate opens with ripe cherry and plum. Similar to the nose there is a suggestion of blood orange in the background. Immediately, the texture of the wine is evident. Broad, velvety layers coat the palate and intensify the finish. This wine will age gracefully over the next 5-7 years. If you'd like to enjoy this wine sooner, decant for 45 minutes before serving.

2007 Gewurztraminer
Russian River Valley

From the glass, the nose is greeted with an amazing array of tropical fruits like mango and papaya. Also on the nose, white flower blossoms like jasmine, honeysuckle or gardenia. ...more The combination of tropical fruit and floral seem to indicate a slightly sweet wine but with the first sip it is clear that the wine bone dry. Mango, papaya and crisp pear greet the palate. The fruit is set atop a creamy texture which comes from the fermentation and partial aging in old, French oak barrels. Combined with the fruit are distinct spice elements like clove or pumpkin pie, a trademark of this varietal. One of the ultimate food wines, Gewurztraminer will pair with a range of food from light, Asian cuisine to traditional Thanksgiving day foods like turkey and stuffing.

2006 Viognier
Calaveras County

W ...moree planted Viognier in 2004 on rich clay/loam soils, and have vinified it to express all the things we find attractive about the variety; deep aromas of peaches and honeysuckle, broad and powerful palate, and a clean, fresh finish, unencumbered by new oak. It may be our richest and most opulent white wine we've ever produced, and is a great match for salmon and sea bass or enjoyed with creamy cheeses like St Andre and Camembert.
