Wine Notes:
Our vintage Port is inspired by the pioneering
settlers of
Contra Costa County who planted
grapes here over 100 years ago. When this area
was settled by the Portuguese and other Europeans,
their penchant for Port came with them. We
have crafted a singular varietal vintage Port that
we think those pioneering vignerons would have
enjoyed. We hope you do too!
Tasting Notes:
Ripe and bright flavors of candied plum and
cherry follow the aromas of fig, allspice, toffee
and blackberry jam. The palate is lush and sweet
but not cloying - decadent with chocolate and
distinctive cheeses.
