Our new Hillside vineyards Zinfandel combines the best of our estate vine-yard and fruit from the Rossi Ranch. Our Estate production was not enough to bottle by itself and it’s lower acid and black fruit flavors has been complemented by the bright raspberry notes from Rossi. This is a wonderfully fruity and medium bodied wine that will be great with grilled foods and is ready now and for the next 4 years
Our Estate Syrah is a selection of the most intense lots made in 2017 and will be at its best with richer foods and will be a great candidate for aging in the cellar for another 5-8 years. More structured than the ‘16 version, it combines both the fruit and wild sides of the Syrah grape and is one of the best of the Estate Syrah’s to date.
The McGraw Cabernet wines have always shown lovely bright fruit that typifies the grape and the region. The excellent tannin structure guarantees a good cellar life as the ’08 and ’12 wines still demonstrate but they are also wines that can be enjoyed in their youth. As benefits the farming, it is a more traditional Cabernet, with excellent red fruit, and balanced acid and tannin that disappear when having food. It is ready to enjoy now but will hold for up to 10 more years in a good cellar.
This Port is very much in the same mold as previous years though, perhaps just a little sweeter and richer than the ’14 version although that sweetness is balanced by cleansing tannin and acidity. (500 ml)
The Rossi Syrah is usually the biggest of my Syrah wines and is kept longer in bottle before release for that reason. It is my last release from 2017 and the extra time has allowed the wine to showcase the meaty and gamey side of the Syrah grape. It will be at its best with more sturdy meals and will continue to do so for another 8+ years for those with cellar space.
This non-vintage Shiraz is a barrel selection of wines from the various Syrah programs that has been bottled separately, all chosen for having plenty of flavor and character.

This second bottling combines about equal percentages of ’18 and ’19 vintages and we have added a small amount of Grenache to add some cherry fruit and some estate Syrah to round out the tannin structure. The wine is still big and brawny and well matched to heavier winter dishes. Only 81 cases produced
Just 1 barrel is put aside each year to age for 10 years. The current version is based upon the 2010 Syrah vintage style Port, just one barrel produced and bottled by hand. (375 ml)
My version of this dessert wine is made from Viognier juice fortified with pure grape alcohol. The base wine was made in 2007 and the wine is aged in older French oak barrels in the traditional Spanish Solera method. (375mL)
Beautifully packaged in a black gift box, each box contains a signed bottle of 2016 Port, and a signed Decada Tawny Port
