Dry Reds
|
2008 Cabernet Savignon – Our first Cabernet Sauvignon
bottling. The King of Grapes! Spicy cherry notes and great
longevity. One to put away in your cellar. NEW – Gold Medal Winner |
|
2008 Merlot – With its jammy fruitiness, the Merlot
grape makes a sensuous wine that is easy to appreciate, long finish with
smooth tannins. NEW |
|
2006 Crown of Cab – The crown jewel of our cellar. Our
first blend to contain all 5 of the true Bordeaux varietals! Aged in
oak for 24 months. 55% Cab Sauvignon, 18% Cab Franc, 18% Merlot, |
|
2007 Pinot Noir – A Burgundy-style wine with soft mocha aromas, deep
black currant flavors, and a velvety smooth finish. Aged in French Oak for 12 months, this well
balanced wine has earthy nuances and a vibrant color. |
|
2008 Lemberger – The German name of these grapes is Lemberger - and no, it
doesn’t mean “stinky cheese” in German! There’s nothing “stinky” about
this delicious medium bodied oak aged red wine. Rich, toasty overtones
and slightly spicy flavors with a dry finish. NEW |
|
2007 Cabernet Franc – A smooth, medium bodied oak aged red
wine made in the French style. Aromas of candied fruits and
strawberries - graceful & elegant. The perfect wine to pair with a
steak grilled on your patio. NEW |
|
2008 Wolf's Prairie
Red – A fun red table
wine. Deep red color, full-flavored, food friendly, and will age
well. Oak aged a year, a rich, fruity blend of deChaunac and
Chelois grapes. Watch out, this Wolf can make you howl! NEW |
|
2007 Syrah (a.k.a. Shiraz) – The Australians started calling this wine
“Shiraz”, but for over 800 years it has been known as Syrah. Our oak
aged Syrah will age majestically, with complex spicy overtones of violet and
cloves, and dark blackberry and licorice flavors. |
|
2009 St. Vincent – Our lightest red wine. Named after the
patron saint of wine grape growers and vintners. Dry, but mellow, with
characteristics similar to an Italian Chianti, St. Vincent has a fresh
bouquet with hints of cherry. Perfect with a picnic, pizza or pasta. |
Dry Whites
|
2008 Pinot Grigio - Our Pinot Grigio is a
refreshing, crisp, dry white wine with hints of lemon. All stainless
steel fermented in the northern Italian style, this premium |
|
2009 Steelhead White - A delicious blend of
Seyval Blanc, Chardonnay, and Pinot Grigio grapes with hints of citrus fruit
flavors. Named after the Steelhead Trout that swim up the St. Joseph
River from Lake Michigan to the Berrien Springs Dam, this wine is a perfect
accompaniment to trout, salmon, walleye, or any fish or chicken dish. NEW |
|
2009 Sauvignon Blanc - A new release for us this
year! A crisp, dry white wine with zesty, fresh flavors of citrus
and pear. Pairs nicely with salads, appetizers, and any fish or chicken
dish. Nicely refreshing! SOLD OUT |
|
2008 Marsanne - The Marsanne grape
was originally grown in the Rhone River Valley of France. It makes a
full-bodied white wine with delicate aromas of honeysuckle. Dry
finish. Perfect with lobster, shellfish, or try some BBQ pork chops. |
|
2008 Viognier - Viognier is an exotic
and rare French white wine grape. It requires a cooler microclimate
(like we have here in southwest Michigan) in order to develop its creamy
flavors and aromas of peach, apricot, melon, and mango. This wine will
fill your palate with lush, complex flavors, a full-bodied mouth feel, and a
lingering finish. |
|
2009 Traminette - Notice the
distinctive perfumey, floral aroma of this Alsatian-style white wine. A
relative of the German grape Gewurztraminer, this fruity wine has a nice dry
finish. Perfect with turkey dinner or spicier dishes. NEW |
Sweet Wines
|
2009 Vignoles - A semi-sweet,
refreshing white wine. Light yellow color, delicate and fruity in a
tropical way, this is the perfect wine for sipping on the patio on a summer
afternoon, as well as a good accompaniment for Asian food. 3% residual
sugar. NEW |
|
2009 White Satin - A smooth, sophisticated white wine made from a
blend of several grapes. Soft and slightly sweet, White Satin is ready to
drink now. Indulge yourself in the luxury of Satin. 3% residual sugar. |
|
2009 Traminette
“Sweet” - A sweeter version of
our classic Traminette, this wine still retains the distinctive perfumey,
floral aroma which is typical of a Gewurztraminer. Sophisticated and
fruity with 4% residual sugar. |
|
2008 Red Satin - A smooth,
sophisticated red wine with mild tannins. Soft and slightly sweet, Red
Satin is ready to drink now. Indulge yourself in the luxury of
Satin. 3% residual sugar. |
|
2009 Grandma’s Red - Made from the
same full-flavored, deep red blend of grapes as our Wolf's Prairie Red, but
in a sweet style. "What big taste your sweet red wine has,
Grandma!" exclaimed Little Red Riding Hood. "All the better to eat
you with my dear," answered the Wolf (in Grandma's clothing). 4%
residual sugar. |
Dessert Wines
|
2009 Cabernet Franc
Ice Wine - This is a
traditional ice wine - the grapes are left on the vine for several
months after normal harvest time to let Mother Nature freeze them.
Picked and crushed while below 17F, the water inside the grape remains
frozen, and only the most concentrated sweet nectar is pressed out.
Distinctive brick red color. Aromas of honey and caramel. Flavors of
apricot, apple pie, and spiced orange peel, with a bracing finish of
acidity. NEW |
