2010 SEXT Riesling
Nicely fizzy, this is refreshing orange blossom, peach, green apple, and citrus peel, dancing on a balanced 5% RS and low 8% alcohol. Acid gives refreshment to the extreme. Perfect dessert wine.

2009 CERISE™
The true meaning of Cerise™: Black cherry, cherry candy, pie cherry, cherry cola, and chocolate cherry. We've got them all. Aspects of black and white pepper, dried flowers and spice complement the fruit on the palate.

2010 3 Vineyard Pinot Gris
From a cool, low-crop vintage, there is both exotic tropical fruit and jasmine, set on-edge by great acidity and balanced with minor sweetness. Perfect food wine.

2009 Stoller Vineyards Pinot Noir

This single-vineyard designate is predominantly from the densest plantings of Pinot Noir at our Stoller Vineyards and provides great concentration of fruit, with good acid backbone. There typically is an earthy, sweet cherry fruit core, soft and broad, with occasional threads of herb.

2010 Grüner Veltliner
Fruit and spice meld, with ripe peach, stone, white flower, licorice, white pepper aromas and flavors, with great texture and weight, ending in a ripe white fruit finish.

2009 Ridgecrest Pinot Noir

This wine is the oldest of the four vineyard-designated Pinot Noirs we produce. It is characteristically brawny, briery, dusty black-fruited. Deep, sweet fruit has been balanced with fine tannin structure, which, with good acidic structure, gives good ageability.

2008 Reserve Pinot Gris

Plenty of structure and ripe fruit, from white-yellow stone fruit to tropical, with warm baking spices and butterscotch hints thrown in. Bone dry and acid-driven, this wine needs time to open up, and will continue to lengthen, as a peach pit and pear skin finishing snap turns weighty and oily.

2009 3 Vineyard Pinot Noir
Precocious, lush, deeply colored and seductive, wine spice and fruits dominate with pie cherry and dried cherry, plummy blue and black fruit, tea leaves and gingerbread, molasses, nutmeg; excellent weight and elegant—in a word, sensual.

2010 Stoller Pinot Blanc
A big, old-style Pinot Blanc; high-toned and dry tasting, with wood character, pear, lemon zest, and grapefruit; richness of pudding and shortbread, with some heat and very slight tonic bitters finish; good balance and a full wine in all ways.

2009 Corral Creek Vineyards Pinot Noir
Brilliant medium garnet, with spice and pure red cherry aromatics; cherry and chocolate flavors, mild tannin and an earthy finish; as always laser focused, bright, balanced and light on the palate.

2010 Reserve Dry Riesling

This is a serious Riesling, a big wine with brilliant, rich fruit, bright acid, and a weighty palate. The acidity provides ageability and great structure. It is harvested late with full ripeness and a touch of botrytis, giving the most intense dry Riesling we can make.

2009 Wind Ridge Pinot Noir
Deep purple-garnet, with red and black fruit and pepper aromatics; great weight and emollience, with a firm tannin grip and balance for aging; blackberry and black cherry flavors extending in a long finish. Voluptuous.

2009 Corral Creek Riesling
Bright and fleshy with mineral and wet stone accents, emollient texture and long clean finish, with just enough sweetness to create a full, rich palate. Truly refreshing and mouthwateringly complex.

2008 Statement Pinot Noir

2010 INOX® Chardonnay

This quintessential INOX® shows a great balance with relatively low alcohol for the year and bright acid; the length is lovely and the weight rich, with a supple, silky texture; flavors linger, with cherry and peach accents.

2008 Ian's Reserve Chardonnay

Gorgeous. Essence of candied ginger, lime, white flower and grapefruit pith complement the biscuity, brown sugar, and brioche notes seen throughout. Promises one of the best Chardonnays we’ve made.

2008 Reserve Pinot Noir

The aromas are red and black briery fruits, hints of dried flower, black tea and cola. The flavors are dense red fruit and complex baking spices, and the texture is firm but very elegant, and, with good acidity, promises long aging.
