Finally the 2007 Rockpile Zinfandel is ready for release. It is absolutely wonderful. The nose shows some pretty floral and soft red fruit aromas, along with that special dry earthy character we find in the Rockpile wines. The palate has deep rich layers of ripe blackberries, a slight hint of Bourbon vanilla, minerals, soft black pepper, and Blue and Red fruits.
BEST OF CLASS ♦ GOLD ♦ NEW RELEASE!
Our Sauvignon Blanc won the 2012 San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition BEST OF CLASS! Another beautiful Sauvignon Blanc.
The nose is reminiscent of a fresh Spring day, with a sweet fresh grassiness, intertwined with the scents of blossoms and green apples. Again, as in past vintages, this wine displays incredible depth and complexity, which makes it quite difficult to dissect the powerful array of aromas and flavors. We recommend spending some time with each glass and exploring the uniqueness and complexity of what we know will be a classic vintage for Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blancs.

BEST OF CLASS ♦ DOUBLE GOLD ♦ NEW RELEASE!
2009 was again a much cooler growing season in Northern California than we are accustomed to. The result of which is a Pinot Noir wine showing a great deal of finesse showing off a real sense of terroir and an abundance of sweet Red Fruits, with Strawberry, Raspberry and Red Currant fighting for the lime light. These aromas and flavors are backed up by notes of spice, red licorice, cola and perhaps a touch of menthol.

The color of the wine is a deep red almost opaque. Your nose will experience black cherries, plums, dried cherries, charcoal, toast, dried herbs, minerals, all setting into a varietal correct smell. The palate has a broad entry followed by a full-middle based feeling on the tongue. This wine is balanced and has good structure. Lots of minerals, dustiness, dried fruits, pomegranate, roasted nuttiness, jolly ranchers, and sweet fruits add to a long tasty finish.

CHAIRMAN'S GOLD ♦ BEST OF CLASS ♦ NEW RELEASE!
2007 will be known for a long time as an exceptionally good year for growing grapes in Sonoma County. One of the regions finest appellations for growing Zinfandel is the heralded ‘Rockpile’ AVA in the northern realms of the Dry Creek Valley. The grapes grown for this wine came from several different blocks, which included 4 different clones taken from old vine block plantings of Zinfandel throughout Sonoma County. St. Peters Church clone is one of these clones, which has shown more than a few exceptional qualities grown in these sparse and rugged rock strewn soils that typify Rockpile.
