Russ Winston of the Modesto Bee stops by
April 10, 2019
Two weekends ago, Russ Winston from the Modesto Bee dropped by for a tasting. Here are his impressions.
Our Wines
White
​
2022 Torrontes Riojano - 13.1% alc, 55 cases produced
A northern Spanish white grape which we sourced from Galt (within the Lodi appellation). Related to Malvasia, this wine falls between Muscat and Sauvignon Blanc aromatically.
$23 / bottle
2023 Grüner Veltliner - 14.1% alc, 57 cases produced
Partially fermented in neutral French oak and stainless steel barrels. This Austrian white grape produced a wine defined by stone fruit notes.
$23 / bottle
​
Rose
2022 Grenache Rose - 13.7% alc, 64 cases produced
Our first rose. Made like a red wine- fermented on the skins until pressing and barrel aged for 10 months. No residual sugar. Displays kiwi and watermelon with a soft, food-friendly finish.
$23 / bottle
​
Red
​​
2019 Malbec - 12.0% alc, 75 cases produced
Bright red fruit and fresh red meat with a spicy cinnamon component, offering an acidic structure which will pair well with a variety of continental foods.
$29 / bottle
​​​​
2021 Tempranillo - 14.6% alc, 75 cases produced
Our second Tempranillo, from a different vineyard source than the 2017 vintage (still within the Lodi appellation). Aromatics of fennel resemble marinara-covered Italian sausage, with a fleshy palate.
$29 / bottle
​
2021 Cabernet Sauvignon - 15.3% alc, 39 cases produced
The first Cabernet Sauvignon we have produced. Youthful aromatics of cranberry, spearmint, and muted French oak give way to barely resolving tannins and baby fat. Supported on a balanced palate, this young Cabernet can age 5-10 years.
$29 / bottle
​
2022 Old Vine Carignane / Nicolini Vineyard - 13.9% alc, 50 cases produced
From a small vineyard just south of Lodi planted in 1930. Medium-bodied but expressive with interesting traits including herbes de Provence.
$29 / bottle
​
2022 Petite Sirah - 14.5% alc, 62 cases produced
Chewy and tannic like a good Lodi Petite Sirah should be. Grown on West Woodbridge Road. Lots of new French oak in this wine.
$29 / bottle
​
2022 Old Vine Zinfandel / Wegat Vineyard - 16.0% alc, 50 cases produced
Verging on overripe, viscous but not sweet, and bursting with intense flavors and dark, extracted elements.
$29 / bottle
