“With just the right amount of stress from the vineyard, just enough barrel to balance structure and a healthy dose of common sense I simply make the best wine that I can with a sense of artistry and place.”
-Kevin Vecchiarelli, Winemaker
The 2021 growing season gave us even-tempered conditions for the Diamond Mountain appellation, revealing some of Cabernet Franc’s best attributes. This wine manifests freshness that unfolds into red berries and cassis. On the palate, the red berries express acidity that is complexed with pronounced texture giving a cocoa flavor that persists into a polished silky finish. Perfect to drink now but suitably structured to age well. Only 260 cases were bottled. –Kevin Vecchiarelli, Winemaker

The 2021 Merlot expresses an abundance of red fruit. Aromatically, it takes a deep dive into dark cherries, raspberries and wild forest strawberries. While the vinous flavors articulate a full bodied Merlot with lively acidity, a gripping texture develops then immediately gives way to a finer grained tannin. This is an excellent expression of mountain grown Merlot. –Kevin Vecchiarelli,Winemaker
