Heritance Sauvignon Blanc Heritance Sauvignon Blanc $17.00

A nice counter to the N.Z. style, this SB shows copious aromas of meyer lemon, apricot, melon and passion fruit. The palate is broad, round and well balanced. The creaminess and tropical flavors make it unmistakably California.


Salexis Merlot 2001 Salexis Merlot 2001 $27.00

A rare release of a Napa Merlot from a year of nearly perfect weather that provided fruit with ripe character, richness and depth seldom seen from a small plot in the Snowden Vineyards above Rutherford. Showing age in the color, the aromas and flavors of blackberries, cherries, chocolate, coffee, and toasty oak are still abundant. Be VERY careful with the cork, or just invite one of us over to open it for you.


Volunteer Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Volunteer Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon $30.00

The Volunteer is a medium density Cabernet, with hints of cherry, cranberry, toasted vanilla and subtle tannins. Juicy with a little smoke and oak. Named for the wine maker who is a volunteer Fire Fighter in Napa Valley.


Hourglass Blueline Merlot 2015 Hourglass Blueline Merlot 2015 $69.00

Truly a unique and stunning Merlot. Big vibrant nose of yeasty blackberry cobbler, sweet spice, plum and mocha. Crushed stone minerality with sassy acidity jump at you first followed by bright blackberry, baking spices, sweet leather and plenty of warm oak.


Orchard Wine Cellar Movers and Shakers This Week

  • Tintero Moscato

    #1 Tintero Moscato

    Sori Gramella refers to the one of the only single vineyard Moscatos, and Marco is the only producer to bottle this striking limestone amphitheater commercially. Once the 30 year old vines give up their bounty, and the grapes are harvested and pressed, they are kept in stainless steel at a low temperature to prevent fermentation until an order is received in order to provide the freshest wine possible.
    (Holding the #1 spot)
