From over 90 year old head-trained vines planted on 2 m x 2 m spacing from the famed Beatty Ranch on Howell Mountain, 1800 feet above the Napa Valley floor, we produced a wine that truly exhibits the unique characteristics of this special vineyard exhibited by the beautiful black berry and raspberry fruit followed with a black pepper spice and chocolate notes lingering in the finish.

Grown in the cool climate of Carneros in southern Sonoma County, a blend of Clone 174 and Clone 300 Syrah from the Las Madres Vineyard was used to produce a wine that provides a strong core of upfront fruit with a backbone and structured to allow the wine to age for many years to come.

As in life, all good things must come to an end. 2004 marked the last harvest for the Broken Leg Zinfandel. To commemorate this event, we crafted a special blend of Zinfandel from Broken Leg vineyard along with Syrah from Las Madres vineyard and Petite Syrah from Teldeschi vineyard -- a wine which we called Last Leg Cuvee.

Our first white wine! Although, Roussanne remains a relatively undiscovered varietal in the new world, it is the basis for the world’s finest white wines from the Southern Rhone region of France. Roussanne is one of our favorite alternatives to Chardonnay, exhibiting great intensity with extraordinary elegance and a viscous nose of honeyed caramel, pineapple, and apricots with a backbone of mineral nuances.
