A new winery in the market with fruit bought from growers that the owner has become acquainted with over the years as head of Merryvale.
Sauvignon Blanc 2007 interesting to try this after the Vivasour that was so grapefruit. this had a little more fig and melon but still good acidity.
Chardonnay 2007 pretty golden yellow, lots of tropical fruit on the nose and palate, especially banana. not a big buttery oaky bomb but still hints of the oak come through. there was a little harshness at the end that surprised me...maybe to try it again
Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 way young. tannin and teeth and grit. unfiltered which is a good thing but the wine will need to settle down some. pretty cassis and lead pencil on the nose. and a long finish. maybe in time.
