Suigei means "Drunken Whale". Kochi faces south to the Pacific Ocean where the black current flows and whales thrive. This is a serious sake- made with heavy mineral water, it is dry and smooth. Fennel, hops, hint of rose on the nose.

"Secano" means Dry Farmed. No irrigation is used to produce this wine. Water only comes from the rain the vineyard receives during winter. Rich, ripe and well-crafted, with concentrated flavors of blueberry, dark plum and blackberry, loaded with plenty of Asian spice notes. The plush finish lingers with raspberry and chocolate accents. *Unfiltered* Only 30 cases imported.

Layers of dried flowers and baking spice give way to savory salinity. Slightly dry and medium-bodied. Clean and focused on the finish to accentuate its rice-like qualities. Faint aromas of raisins and earthiness with a gentle sweetness beneath.

Aromas of ricot, Lemon Meringue and Honey Suckle. Stonefruit and pie crust with medium weight on the palate and nice viscosity. Then notes of crème brulee that is wide on the tongue and builds to a lingering finish with balanced acid of lemon meringue. 80% FRENCH, 20% AMERICAN, 10% NEW OAK

The 2014 Petite Sirah Lytton Estate is outstanding. Deep, luscious and intense, but with none of the aggressiveness Petite so often presents, the 2014 is utterly captivating from the very first taste. Dark red and blue-hued stone fruits, mint, spices and licorice are front and center. The purity of the fruit here is simply remarkable. This is a tremendous wine. Don't miss it!

The Grapes come from vines over 70 years old, planted on hillsides at an altitude of 200 to 240 metres. The plot is named “the queen” and is characterised by its calcareous clay soils. Although the wine is mature, it also has freshness that comes through strongly as aromatic and yellow-fruit driven. The acidity is intense, full of character while fruitiness continues right to the end.

Warm aromas of baked red cherry and caramel grow more complex due to a gravelly minerality and hints of peppercorns on the nose of this bottling by Ian Brand. The palate leads with oregano and pepper, those spices overwhelming the fruit, and the rocky minerality continues, leading into a cocoa-laced finish. It is a lithe and lively style of Cab.

We are thrilled to offer you Lilly Rosé, the first release from our vineyard on the Folded Hills Estate. From Lilly Anheuser in 1844, to our beautiful granddaughter, this bright rosé is a celebration of six generations of strong while loving women. Opening with lifted aromatics of mountain berry blossoms, the Lilly Rosé transforms to flavors of red fruits, followed by a crisp,

On the east slope of the Eoal-Amity bills sits a crazy, steep, rocky vineyard called Dubay. This epic little vineyard is farmed by a great friend and vineyard whisperer, Ryan Hannaford. He has to use a crawler to spray and do tractor work, but nothing great is ever easy. We get one acre block from this site, which yields somewhere around 1.6 tons in 2014. The wine is NUTTY GOOD

Supple, expressive and inviting, layering dark berry, licorice and toast flavors with specks of pepper and floral. Lingers easily against refined tannins. Merlot, Syrah, Viognier and Cabernet Franc. Drink now through 2018

Luscious, yet fruity and balanced after six months of barrel aging. White winemaker David Rosenthal dialed down the new wood involved from 35% to 25% for the 2015 vintage, creating aromas and flavors of caramel corn, tropical fruit and vanilla with apple and pear notes. It finishes with a touch of toast, yet the judicious use of oak allows for a fleck of minerality, too.

Grown from certified organic estate vineyards in Eisenstadt, mainly on limestone terroir. White summer blossom and fresh green pear create a superlight, superfresh opening. The palate continues in the same vein, but with an aromatic, spicy, peppery edge.
