Neyers Vineyards. Missouri Beverage Bruce Neyer

Bruce Neyer. vineyard owner and National sales director for Kermit Lynch
Chardonnay Carneros District 2012  toasty nose made with 3 year old air dried barrels.. double native yeast both in innoculation and malolactic fermentation  a touch hot on the finish with a long smooth finish

Zinfandel Vista Luna Borden Ranch 2011... heirloom vineyard perfume nose, softer style.. more balanced less highly charged alcohol.

Sage Canyon California Rhone style blend 2012  lovely on the palate and nose. a blend of carignan, grenache, mourvedre and syrajh.. juicy fruit

Pinot Noir Robert Road Sonoma coast 2012 mushroom and earthy nose with a bit of dried fruit.. dark fruit.. lots of maceration.. from low yield viens

Merlot Neyers Ranch Conn Valley Napa 201.. dark color pretty wine great texture  the way california merlot shoud be

Cabernet Sauvignon Neyers Ranch Conn Valley Napa 2010  true to vintage.. dark color with cassis and cedar nose, dark vanilla cherry and supple tannins on the back

listening to mr neyer was a lesson in wine making from soil and trellacing to chemical reactions in the wine and soil compounds.
