Paloma 2019 Merlot

The 2019 is 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon. It is fermented and then aged in French oak—33% new—for 18 months before being bottled in the spring and aged for an additional 30 months before release. A dense ruby-purple in color, the 2019 Merlot reveals notes of strawberry jam intermixed with black cherries, oak, herbs, and a touch of chocolate. This is a medium-bodied offering that shows moderately tight tannins and a touch of sweetness up front. The wine will benefit from aeration and will pair beautifully with stuffed mushrooms and roasted pork loin. In 2003, Paloma Vineyard’s 2001 Merlot was chosen by the Wine Spectator as the Wine of the Year out of over 15,000 wines from around the world. Since 2003, Paloma Merlot has been in the Wine Spectator TOP 100 two more times–in 2004 for the 2002 vintage (54th) and in 2009 for the 2006 vintage (65th)–as well as received the Wine Spectator Special Selection in 2012 for the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon. Paloma Vineyard uses only estate fruit that is picked, fermented, and barreled in small lots. Any blending is completed just prior to bottling, allowing for maximum development before deciding on final ratios.

Crocker & Starr RLC Cabernet Sauvingon 2021

Rock Loam Clay: Named for the variations of rock, loam, and clay soils found throughout the Crocker Vineyard, RLC is the embodiment of Crocker & Starr as a concept. RLC is the third distinctive estate Cabernet Sauvignon from our St. Helena based Crocker Estate. The varying soil compositions in these vine blocks (east of our historic Block 3) yield generous and supple grapes which in turn yield a plush and classic Cabernet Sauvignon wine. The emblem on our label… Label designer, Jim Cross, focuses on the strong roots of a 16th century wood block design emphasizing that these roots ‘drink’ the differences in soils where they grow yielding variations in the grape clusters on that vine. 2021 Harvest Report Tasting Notes: The 2021 RLC is a beautifully dense garnet color, with aromas of blackberry, sweet tobacco leaf, vanilla and red plum jumping out of the glass.

Trujillo 2020 Syrah

Vintage Notes In my four decades of winemaking, I’ve had the great pleasure of crafting wines from every corner of the Napa Valley. My inspiration for small lot wines comes from stepping out of the box and culling different varieties from favorite vineyards. Each unique site produces grapes that exhibit a balance of daring personality and enveloping elegance, distinct with varietal expression, complexity of aromatics along with seamless balance that carries the wine to amazing heights. Syrah wine has a broad spectrum of styles around the world. Even in California the individual styles are quite diverse. I prefer the more restrained approach to Syrah, the old-world style, influenced by Napa Valley terroir. This 2020 Trujillo Syrah falls perfectly into this varietal of expression, stylish and perfectly balanced. This 2020 Trujillo Syrah, the inaugural vintage, is all about the varietals fun, exotic, lush aromas. Incredibly forward and expressive with a slight rustiness, yet full of blue and black fruits, floral notes of violets, with sweet herbs, and a slight hint of gaminess. The wine is full bodied and delivers lavishly with enticing flavors of plum, black cherry, black fig, accompanied with a hint of cured meats on the finish. Beautifully laced together by fine-grained tannin, perfectly balanced acidity - giving flight, structure, and length. This Syrah is true to its varietal attributes - easily enjoyed on its own anytime, and also favorably pairs with a wide variety of cuisines. This wine will gracefully cellar, but with proper decanting can be enjoyed now. Drink within the next six years to capture all of Syrah’s personality. Enjoy!! Origin: 100% Napa Valley Blend Composition: 93% Syrah, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Merlot Maturation: Aged 20 months 100% French Oak

City Limits Detour Red Blend

“One day, it came to me as I drove past this sign after 10 years of time. We (the producers) travel far and wide outside of the City Limits to work with farmers and source fruit to make wine. We then take that produce and create something beautiful, and we present it to the people within the City Limits. We bring the rural land to the urban people in a bottle of wine. Wine was before us. It will be after us. It is not a trend or a fad. Wine is beautiful and it will endure. We bring fruit that is grown beyond the City Limits to people who live within the City Limits to spread the love of Washington Wine.” -Morgan Lee, Winemaker Morgan’s mom designed the labels for City Limits. The image on the Detour label is the ventilation building for the Highway 99 tunnel that runs under Seattle. In 2013, the world’s largest tunnel boring machine arrived in Seattle and was named Bertha. Bertha had a diameter of 57.5 feet and was lowered into the ground to dig a 9,300-foot tunnel under the city to replace the aging, crumbling, and earthquake-prone Alaskan Way Viaduct along the Emerald City’s waterfront. It took Bertha 4 years to complete her journey. Talk about a Detour! THE ART THE PROCEEDS We proudly donate a portion of the proceeds from City Limits to NAMI – National Alliance on Mental Illness.

Amira Nero D'Avola

From the cretti of a dry soil rich in minerals, Prince of a land of mirages and wonders, Amìra (from the Arab amîr - prince) represents the purest essence of Nero d’Avola from Butera. The mineral-rich parched and cracked terrain yields a gentle and refined red wine, stemming from a deep admiration for this great Sicilian grape varietal.
The nose leads with layered fruit aromas of strawberries, raspberries, and orange peel, but the sun soon sets and darker notes of slate, damp earth and bitter coffee emerge. On the palate, a serious astringency underscores the earthiness, but the fruit stays quietly present. Medium Body, Dry.  Pair with Hard Cheese,  or Barbeque. Varietal: Nero d'Avola

Boomtown 2018 Syrah

Boomtown by Dusted Valley offers classic Washington State wines with one goal - to over deliver. In 2003, Wisconsin natives Chad Johnson and Corey Braunel left the comforts of their corporate jobs to move to Walla Walla and fulfill their dream of crafting world-class wine. Combining Washington State grapes with their rough and tumble know-how and a sizeable piece of their souls, the family created Dusted Valley and Boomtown. A nod to the Dusted Valley family’s unquenchable thirst for adventure, Boomtown is crafted for all of those unafraid to step out and leave their comfort zones. Boomtown by Dusted Valley allows the family the opportunity to share a fantastic Dusted Valley wine with a larger audience. Winegrowers, Chad Johnson and Corey Braunel, work with the vineyard managers from McNary Vineyard in the Horse Heaven Hills AVA and Two Gun Vineyard in the Ancient Lakes AVA to control and guide the process at each and every step - from vineyard to bottle. McNary Vineyard • Our 2018 Boomtown red wines hail from McNary Vineyard, perched right along the mighty Columbia River in the Southeast corner of the Horse Heaven Hills AVA. Beautiful fruit and balance are the hallmarks of these wines, and with the addition of roughly 10-15% of our Dusted Valley estate fruit, the result yields wines with polish, concentration and varietal typicity that over deliver time and again. • With temperatures moderated by the Columbia River, the McNary Vineyard is a cooler site compared to its vineyard neighbors in the Horse Heaven Hills AVA. The cooler climate lends itself to longer hang times and phenolic ripeness which lead to old world sensibilities with bright core Washington fruit and natural acidity. • This unique site is situated directly on the Columbia River in sandy soils on a basalt cliff overlooking the McNary Dam. • The vineyard was planted in 2012 with subsequent plantings through 2017. Varietal: 96% Syrah, 4% Petite Sirah

Guidalberto 2022

The label of Guidalberto depicts the Oratory of San Guido, and the wine is named after the family ancestor Guidalberto della Gherardesca, an agricultural pioneer in the Bolgheri area. It was in the first decades of the 1800’s when he built the first factories, and churches, and planned the avenue of cypress trees, the Viale dei Cipressi. These trees were initially used to mark the boundaries between the different crops. Its ornamental value, with the tall cypresses running in double rows, came after that. Guidalberto is from the producers of the legendary Sassicaia, with a more approachable drinkability and a great aging potential. It is a great expression of the Tenuta San Guido territory. The vintage 2022 was tendentially warm. The autumn climate had temperatures above the norm and abundant rains. In November, the night temperatures often dropped, creating an optimal situation for the vegetative rest of the plants and elimination of parasites. The rains continued in January to mid-February. In the very first days of April, a sudden drop in temperature caused a modest bud selection in some vineyards. The remainder of April had sunny and windy days and temperatures slightly below average. May began with mild temperatures and some short rains. In the summer, temperatures were often above average with no rain. Fortunately, the area and its pedoclimatic characteristics greatly helped the plants, allowing for a good quality of the grapes. Lower production per plant and the sparser bunches helped to maintain production and complete ripening, while avoiding stressful conditions. The intense heat lasted until mid-August when a perturbation brought rain and a drop in temperature. In this vintage the grapes ripened earlier than average. The Merlot harvest began on August 23rd until early September. The harvest of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes began in the first week of September until the end of the month. Tasting Notes: This vintage is a bit closed on the nose at a young age, it needs to breathe in the glass to reach its rich aromatic complexity. It recalls the Mediterranean scrub and its essences, strawberry tree, juniper but also earthy and humus notes. Its complex nuances identify its belonging to the terroir of origin. In the mouth the tannins are perfectly integrated, and their maturity accompanies the natural length of the wine on the palate, where freshness and depth stay in the foreground. Excellent salinity, not intrusive, which gives good length and persistence to the nose. Food Pairing: Pair with Bolognese and other meat sauce pastas, grilled pork and beef, and roasts. Varietal: 60% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon AVA: Toscana IGT

IL PINO DI BISERNO

The wine is a bright, deep ruby red color. The broad aromatic range of the bouquet highlights notes of dark fruit that combine with spices, evoking the typical scents of the Mediterranean maquis. The pleasant, slightly toasted aroma conveyed by ageing in barriques is evident in the background. The palate is full, enveloping and fresh, with a lively structure and a pleasantly balanced tannic structure. Outstandingly persistent with great potential for evolution. As the immediate and recognizable expression of Bibbona's unique terroir, Pino di Biserno impresses with its complex aromatic note, accompanied by depth and elegance on the palate. Balance and pleasantness convey the transversal nature and success of this wine. BLEND Predominantly Cabernet Franc, followed by Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, completed by a minimal quantity of Petit Verdot. 75% of the mass matures in both new and used French oak barriques for 12 months. The remainder matures in steel tanks.

Chateau Gloria 2015

General Info: While many Bordeaux Chateaux have long histories in the region, especially in the Medoc, that is not the case with Chateau Gloria. In fact, it’s a relatively new estate that when compared to its peers, was born quite recently. You could say, Chateau Gloria dates back to 1903, but that is not exactly the case. The creator of Chateau Gloria, Henri Martin was born in 1903. Martin had a background in Bordeaux wine before his first birthday. His birth took place at a neighboring St. Julien estate, Gruaud Larose. Henri Martin was born on the property. background since the day he was born. Obviously, Henri Martin was destined for life in wine. During the war, in 1942, Henri Martin purchased 6 hectares of vines located in the Left Bank in the St. Julien appellation. The vines were previously the property of Chateau Beychevelle. Martin made the purchase on the advice of his friend, Jean- Charles Cazes. Cazes is the father of Jean Michel Cazes of Chateau Lynch Bages. That early purchase eventually grew into Chateau Gloria. It took time, but eventually they able to cobble together a total of 48 hectares for Chateau Gloria. Forty years after he created Chateau Gloria, Henri purchased his first 1855 Classified Growth, Chateau St. Pierre , also located in St. Julien. Aside from the classified growth, Chateau St. Pierre, which we already mentioned, they also produce the following wines; Bel Air from Haut Medoc, Pey Martin from St. Julien and Haut Beychevelle Gloria, which comes from St. Julien as well. Vineyards: A vineyard covering 50 hectares, with an average vine age of 40 years, spread across three areas, in the middle of Beychevelle and then in the west and the north of the appellation (bordering Pauillac) on soil made up of Gunzian gravel covering a layer of clay and sand. The grapes are 65% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot. Vinification/Maturation: Once the grapes have been picked by hand, the harvest is vinified in the traditional way in heat-regulated stainless-steel vats, in order to produce truly exceptional wines which can be laid down for a long time. The wine then spends 14 months being aged in casks, 40% new and 60% one-year-old barrels. Tasting Notes: Attractive dark and dense colour. The expressive nose displays subtle blend of black fruits (Morello cherry, blackcurrant) and roasted touch (toast, vanilla). On the palate, the wine is wide and fleshy, with nice fruity touch enhanced by elegant woody notes and pleasant tannins. Production: 18,333 cases made Cellaring: Drink 2019-2033
