2020 Dry Riesling –  A clear, bright, pale straw colored wine, this is beautiful in the glass. Aromas of minerality and jasmine at first whiff, it completes with sweet notes of pear and lychee. This silky wine has  flavors of pineapple and peach milkshake, and harbors hints of slate on the mid-palate and finishes with floral notes.

2019 Homestead Red (Wine Club Only) – 66% Cabernet, 34% Syrah
A deep opaque garnet with blue undertones, this wine promises a lush mouthful. Dark cherry and baked berry crisp leads on the nose with hints of bramble and wet slate. Plummy cherry preserves explode this big fruity wine onto the palate, and is balanced with bright acid and firm tannins. This is a chewy wine with a long finish.

2019 Petite Sirah (Wine Club Only) – Gorgeous ruby tones and opaque in the glass, the aromas of raspberry, blueberry, prune are balanced with a light dusting of white pepper and earthiness tease the nose. Firm tannins are balanced with a medium astringency creating a soft mouth feel. Flavors of raspberry and cherry jello, are balanced  with hints of pistachio and white pepper on  the palate end with a long finish of earth and blackberry jam and seed.
