The wine starts out with a deep ruby color. On the nose, the wine is full of cherry and blackberry fruits, which continue on the palate. What sets this Shiraz apart is the intensity of this ripe fruit, which is just as intense on the finish as when the wine first hits your tongue. The finish has a mineral-graphite edge that balances the fruit nicely. In all, it drinks far, far, above its price point.

Based on a blend of Alder Springs Grenache & Castelli-Knight Ranch Grenache, this wild and exotic blend really screams southern Rhone. We co-fermented a bit of Syrah with the Castelli Grenache so there is a dark spicy core, but really this wine is all about the wild side of Grenache.
Tasting Note: Wild aromas of white flowers, game, forest floor and tiny red berries. The palate is medium-full and supple with clean berry fruit and an exotic wildness to this classic blend, which adds character and an added dimension of earthy complexity.

This is a soul-warming, hug-in-a-glass Shiraz from one of Australia's most historic estates. It busts out peppery spice and herbs atop plump plum and dark-berry fruit with a dusty terra cotta bass note. The palate is equally fruit-and-spice driven, rich and silky in texture, but tightened up with savory, sinewy tannins. An unabashedly sun-drenched Shiraz, but one that is ultra approachable in spite of itself.

We assemble unique Syrah lots to create texture, mouth-feel, and intrigue. In making Christine is we use lower whole cluster, new oak, and we age it for a shorter amount of time. You can smell and taste is in the fruit-forwardness of the wine. Christine is not afraid to put on a show of red berries and purple fruit. It possesses not only great length but also great breadth on the palate. The whole cluster fermentation gives this wine backbone without being too firm, and freshness from our cooler-climate vineyards provides an uplifting finish that will weave well with your favorite fare.

Once & Future wine style: small open-topped redwood fermentors, full destemming, no berry sorting, indigenous yeast, hand punch down of the cap, indigenous malolactic fermentation, and aging in French oak on the yeast with variable amounts of new barrels, depending on the character of the wine. The wines were bottled with no fining or filtration. In short, this is very simple, traditional winemaking that relies on the unique aspects of the vineyard to define the flavor, nature, and quality of the wine. The goal here is not to make a good-flavored beverage, though these wines taste very good; it is to give the drinker a sense of the vintage and place that formed the flavors in these wines. These 2019 wines are bright and juicy on the palate with a strong spine of acid and tannin.

These delicate floral aromas coalesce with notes of iodine, white pepper and wild blueberry. The wine is restrained but speaks volumes in its subltely––and ultimately concludes with a persistent finish of dusty tannins.
