2009 Two Dancers

There is a comforting darkness to the dance of this blend - spicy, cherry, leather, buttery caramel, blackberry and meaty notes that have a subtle layer of violets as it lingers in your mouth.

Brut Rose

This Brut Rose was made in the traditional French "saignee" method. The Pinot Noir grapes were crushed and allowed to sit on thier skins for 14 hours. This gives the wine its unique vibrant bolor and complex taste.

It was vinified in stainless steel tanks creating a very light, crisp and acidic summer wine. It will pair with an array of foods! Only 55 cases produced!

2010 Riesling

Welcome to this intensely aromatic example of Riesling from NHV for 2010. Please enjoy the rich tropical fruit nose accented with hints of that Riesling "petrol." Juicy fruit gum, banana, passion fruit, papaya and mango fill the mouth upon entry. And we hate to think what they do upon exit. Who writes this stuff?
