Wine & Beverages
We are proud to offer a selection of our own wines that showcase our commitment to quality and our love of the land.
Sparkling Wines
Sparkling Chardonnay
Made entirely from chardonnay grapes, this blanc de blanc style bubbly is fantastic for mimosas, celebrating a special occasion, or just because.
Pairings: Shellfish, oysters, creamy cheeses
Sparkling Rosé
Don’t let the delicate color of this wine fool you—its dry acidity stands up to strong flavors. The nose suggests fruits and minerals, while the astringent finish prepares you for the next bite. Perfect for your happy hour celebration!
Pairings: Cured meats and salamis, pizza, and spicy dishes
White Wines
Sauvignon Blanc
2023
Crisp and refreshing New World style with notes of kiwi, grapefruit, gooseberry, and lemon zest.
Pairings: Tilapia, crab, herbed vegetables
Chardonnay
2020
Fermented 2/3 in neutral French oak and 1/3 in stainless steel, this wine presents depth, richness, and vibrant primary fruit flavors.
Pairings: Seafood, light fare
Chardonnay
2021
100% French oaked with notes of yellow fruit ranging from golden delicious apple to delicate tropical flavors. Slow malolactic fermentation brings out the hint of lemon curd and crème brûlée. Savor the creamy mouthfeel and the lingering finish.
Pairings: Rich dishes (lobsters, risottos, chowders, alfredo) and nutty hard cheeses (Gruyère, Edam)
Silver Medal — 2024 Governor’s Cup
Silver Medal — 2024 Monticello Cup
Petit Manseng
2021
With pineapple, lemon, and vanilla notes, this medium-bodied, full-flavored white wine coats the mouth deliciously. Malolactic fermentation smooths off the sharp finish. 100% barrel aged.

Silver Medal — 2024 Governor’s Cup
Rosé & Reds
Rosé
2021
Bright with notes of pink grapefruit and raspberry, and finishes with minerality and a crisp acidity. Our blend is 84% cabernet sauvignon and 16% merlot.
Pairings: Salads, prosciutto, melon
Chambourcin
2022
We‘re enjoying the black fruits, spice, and black pepper on the nose. This lighter-body wine has nice acidity and soft tannins and is incredibly easy to drink.
Pairings: Veal or venison, tomato-based dishes, enchiladas, Edam cheese, and chocolate cake
Merlot
2021
With dark fruits (plum, cherry) on the palate and a balanced tannin finish, this wine is delicious on its own or served with a gourmet meal.
Pairings: Aged sharp cheddar, parmesan, pork shoulder, roasted mushrooms
Cabernet Sauvignon
2021
This is a delicious, full-bodied red with balanced acidity and medium to high tannin structure. With the herbaceous quality of green peppercorn and secondary notes of graphite and cedar, the wine is definitely age-worthy!
Pairings: Red meats, peppery sauces, hearty black bean soup with cumin
Silver Medal — 2024 Governor’s Cup
Meritage
2021
Our velvety-smooth blend of estate-grown petit verdot, cabernet sauvignon, merlot, and cabernet franc was barrel-aged for 20 months. You’ll discover notes of black fruits and light smoke on the nose, with dark cherry and plum prominent on the palate. Savory herbs and pepper come through on the finish.
Pairings: Smoked gouda and good quality, simply seasoned steak

Pairings: Pungent blue cheese, spicy coconut curry, pineapple upside-down cake
