Tavel-style Rosé
A deeply-hued brilliant pink in color, our Tavel-style Rosé is as stunning on the palate as it is to behold. Sometimes called the “red wine drinker’s Rosé”, this wine lingers in the mouth with hints of fresh strawberry, bright red cherry and black tea. Blended from the traditional Rhone varietals, Grenache/Syrah/Mourvèdre, our wine is sure to please even those who say,
“I’m just not a Rosé drinker!”50% Grenache, 36% Syrah, 14% Mourvèdre

Cabernet Sauvignon
Our Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon is what you think of when someone says “red wine”. A deep ruby color, our take on this classic is layered and complex, without being overwhelming. From its initial dark red cherry notes to its green peppercorn finish, it pairs up beautifully with heartier foods, but also does wonderfully as a delicious sipping wine. It is sure to make you feel as if you are sitting at the café pictured on its label, listening to the band play, watching interesting people walk by without a care in the world. “Garcon! Another glass of Cabernet Sauvignon, sil vous plait.”

Provence Rosé
Our Rosé provides a delicate and refreshing experience, perfect for a summer afternoon. A pale, salmon blush in color, it has a beautiful nose of orange blossoms and lingers on the tongue with notes of raspberries, strawberries and vanilla with a bright finish. While great for sipping, it will hold its own if paired with grilled fish or chicken.
90% Syrah, 10% Grenache

Chardonnay
The perfect balance of oakiness and acidity, we are enchanted with our first vintage of Chardonnay! We wanted to capture the best of both worlds, modern and classic techniques, combining the minerality of stainless steel tank fermentation with rounded edges from French Oak. This Chardonnay is the perfect compliment to spicy foods or the classic pairing with white meats and fish.

Symphonie des Terres
Our flagship wine is a symphony of the soils and grapes that we use to produce the quintessential Rhone-style blend, Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. Most of the fruit is grown on our Mount Hamilton estate, whimsically painted on the label. With the vineyards soaring 1,500 feet above the Silicon Valley floor, these plants work had on the steep mountainside to produce excellent fruit. We top off every vintage with fruit grown along the Central Coast of California for a harmonious result: A medium-bodied wine reminiscent of blackberries with notes of vanilla and cream.

Sonate Rouge
Our Cabernet blend evokes another musical work of art- a sonata in red. Willow Creek Cabernet Sauvignon is combined with another Bordeaux classic, Petit Verdot, and with a nod to our Rhone flagship, blended again with our estate Syrah. The result is a rhapsody of the senses with aromatic, elegant dark red fruit coating your wine glass with leggy tannins and an unmistakable smooth vanilla mouthfeel from the 18 months spent in French Oak.
