2023 Hendry Albarino "Hendry Vineyard", Napa Valley, California $30.99
The Albariño at Hendry Ranch has been steadily gaining in popularity in recent years, forcing additional rootstock to be grafted over to the variety. The 2023 vintage expresses the cool growing season with brisk acidity and crisp fruits. Tart green apples, pears, white flowers and lychee. A little bit rich and ripe on the palate with more tropical fruits of mango and key lime. An exceptional Napa version of the Spanish grape.
2022 Illahe Estate Gruner Veltliner, Willamette Valley, Oregon $25.99
Aromas of apple pie, pear, white peach, apricot, cinnamon, baking spice, almond, fortune cookie, freshly cut hay, with a white pepper, and a baking spice mouthfeel. Cold soaked on the skins for 24 hours and then gently pressed. Fermented in 60% acacia and 40% stainless.
2023 Antiquum Farm Daisy Pinot Gris, Willamette Valley, Oregon $32.99
The 2023 vintage is filled with electric citrus and minerality balanced by honeycomb, melon, and lemon verbena, freshly cut hay and lilacs. Daisy explores uncharted depths with a full yet delicate palate, intricate textural layering, and an infinite mouthwatering finish.
HARVEST NOTES
The fruit was picked at night and then lightly and gently pressed at the winery. Primary fermentation and malolactic conversion occurred spontaneously in 75% stainless steel tank and 25% neutral French oak barrels. The wine rested on the lees for six months to build texture and flavor.
2023 Illahe Tempranillo Rose, Willamette Valley, Oregon $20.99
Ready to quench your thirst 2025! Fresh aromas Lemon zest, spruce tip, rhubarb, and fleshy watermelon rind. A fresh, bright, and crisp harmonious palate rounds into a juicy honeydew melon and Oregon strawberry finish. Pair with sunshine.
2022 Antiquum Farm Winery Juel Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley, Oregon
$51.99
Our son, Juel, embodies the wildness of our farm. Juel's feral upbringing on the farm has molded him in unexpected and meaningful ways. This wine reflects his staunchly individual spirit, creativity, sensitivity, and depth. It is a blend of the six selections of Pinot Noir grown at Antiquum Farm. In concert, they convey the many dimensions of our home. The 2022 Juel displays an inherent sense of movement through the entire spectrum of the vineyard, from the higher, ethereal tones at the edges to the deep and brooding middle, all bound together by an electrical current and seamless structural foundation.
2020 Hendry HRW Zinfandel, Napa Valley, California $24.99
100% Zinfandel
RIPE, BRAMBLY BERRY. CINNAMON & CEDAR
As George Hendry says, the HRW Zinfandel is not quite good enough for their top zinfandel, but it is too good for them to sell it off to another winery. Only made in their "best" vintages and in a more quaffable style, this is delicious and rich. It’s tangy and firm, and packed with Napa Zin goodness. Somewhat more "Italian" in style than typical monster California Zinfandels.
