The 2018 Arbore Sacra embodies aromatics of cranberry and spice with layers of earth with lush strawberry notes on the nose. Smooth significant tannins mature gracefully and develop with mid-palate richness. An opulent yet elegant Pinot with a bright and balanced finish.

An aromatic raspberry jam and sweet fruit entry set a beautiful experience for this complex wine. Fresh, red cherry notes, enriched with dark chocolate, vanilla, and coffee flavors. A lush entry followed by its lively acidity on the mid palate complements the velvety tannin structure for an inviting mouthfeel enhanced by a lingering finish.

Our 2016 Estate Malbec boasts complex aromatic layers of ripe fruit with earthy undertones. Experience spicy fruit on the entry with aromas of ripe blueberry, clove, spiced black plum and blackberry blossoms. Firm tannins glide across the palate into a vibrant and invitingly smooth finish.

Our 2017 vintage of Solstice is a Malbec based blend highlighting sweet earthy elements nicely complemented by robust dark fruit flavors of black currant, plum and brandied cherry framed by a hint of vanilla. Powerful and well balanced with a plush mouthfeel transitioning to a smooth finish.

The 2018 Quintus Pinot Noir presents the perfect integration of refreshing acid and soft tannins. Robust and concentrated aromas of black cherry, raspberry, and sea air comingle with a hint of barrel spice. Layers of complexity and a slight minerality create an intriguing contrast to its silky texture with lingering fresh fruit.

This luscious Cabernet has concentrated aromas of black cherry, blueberry, and cocoa, while notes of cedar and cardamom spice are richly layered amongst dark fruit flavors. Bold flavors on the entry develop throughout the palate to create a well-balanced wine with smooth tannins, poised for aging.
