Currently we offer two Chardonnays, our yearly Chardonnay, which we have been producing since 1990, and a special Signature Edition. Both wines come from grapes grown on our own vineyard, Aquarius Ranch, which lies in the Russian River Valley appellation. By growing our own grapes, we control the entire process, from the growing of the grapes until the wine is bottled. Chardonnay is our trademark wine. It has done well in competitions, winning many gold medals, including a double gold at the 2002 El Dorado County Fair Wine Competition. It won the White Wine Sweepstakes at the 1998 Los Angeles County Fair and received at 99 point rating, Double Gold, and Best Russian River Chardonnay at the California State Fair. The 2000 Chardonnay is highly recommended by The Beverage Testing Institute. |

Our Pinot Noir is also grown in our vineyard, Aquarius Ranch. The vineyard borders the Russian River and our grapes thrive in the rich soil. This wine is delightful, with aromas of cherry and a spicy earthiness. This wine is considered an exceptional value for a single vineyard, handcrafted Russian River Valley Pinot Noir. Our Pinot Noir is highly sought after and therefore always sells out quickly. Our next vintage will be 2007, but its release date is yet unknown. Please call us if you would like to be one of the first to receive our Pinot when it is released. |

We carefully create this custom wine with a combination of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot grapes. Combining varitals allows us to balance flavors to create a full bodied experience. Interplay is a deep red-purple in color and medium full-bodied with falvors of black plum, raspberries, and toasty oak. |

| Our Merlot grapes are grown in our vineyard, Aquarius Ranch, along the Russian River. The near-perfect growing conditions in our vineyard allows the grapes to slowly develop. The wine has aromas of berries, spices, and toasty oak. Medium bodied with layers of chocolate, cherries, currants, and clove. This wine has been awarded an 87 point rating by the Wine Enthusiast (September, 2002) and is highly recommended by The Beverage Testing Institute. This wine appeals to even those who generally don't like Merlot! | ||||

With ample, yet soft tannins, this wine is a fine example of a medium-full bodied Syrah. It is deep red-purple in color with flavors of berries, black currant, and toasted spice. The grapes are grown on a hillside vineyard in the Russian River Valley. Late ripening contributes to its depth of flavor. Only 200 cases made. |
