CURRENT RELEASES

2005 barbera (Sierra Foothills)      

Luscious & rich, with intense cherry/raspberry/plum notes, low tannin and a velvety lingering finish.  A real stunner and a worthy successor to our 2004 !

Silver Medal, 2008 CA State Fair. 
> Price: $25 (750ml) [ Back to Top ]

2006 zinfandel (Sierra Foothills)      

A wonderful pepperiness perfectly integrated with the bright fruit, resulting in a very harmonious and multi-dimensional wine, so much more interesting than the often simplistic fruit bomb character of many Zins.  We are very proud of our first Zinfandel !

Silver Medal, 2008 Orange & Amador county fairs.

2005 Petite sirah (Clarksburg)      

A deep dark berry fruit canvas provides a lively background showcasing all the attributes Petite Sirah enthusiasts crave in this wine, including generous but smooth tannins.  Sure to please both occasional and hard core Petite Sirah lovers, the Solune approach shows that Petite Sirah does not have to be a rustic monster bent on hurting your mouth to be in character.

2005 Fleur de Lune (Sierra Foothills)

Exotic White/Orange Muscat and Gewurztraminer blend, pleasantly off-dry up-front, but with a clean and refreshing finish.  Well worth the wait after the instant success of the limited 2004 release. 

Gold Medals, 2007 Amador & Orange county fairs. 
> Price: $20 (750ml); $13 (375ml)  [ Back to Top ]

2006 starboard PORT (Sierra Foothills)

A blend of six traditional Portuguese port varieties (Tinta Roriz, Touriga Nacional/Franca, Tinto Cão, Souzão, Bastardo, and Alvarelhão), the 2006 port continues the rich and intense tradition of our 2005 Souvenir port.  At 18.5% alcohol, this wine is at the low end of the 18-24% alcohol port range, which allows a much improved balance with the other components, unlike the unavoidable hotness/harshness many of its higher alcohol relatives display.  It also means that the fruit has a better chance to shine, with none of the "pruniness" often encountered in alcohol-dominated ports.  A full-flavored and rich wine but still very fruity and friendly.

2006 Titan v (Sierra Foothills)      RESERVED FOR WINE
                                              CLUB RELEASE
This wine is an "assemblage" of Zinfandel and Barbera.  It is a study in contrast (Zin pepperiness vs Barbera red fruitiness) and resonance (intense cherry notes from both).  Very versatile, this smooth and intense wine is as tasty on its own as it is a wonderful match for barbeque, pizza and even cherry pie !  
> Price: $19 (750ml) [ Back to Top ]

Note:  Due to the instant popularity of this wine at release, the remaining inventory

          had to be put aside to fulfill the latest wine club release.
