Marsanne 62%, Viognier 25%, Roussanne 13%. Aromas of almond blossoms, honey, and acacia with hints of tangerine and papaya. Creamy flavours on the palate with peach, apple, and quince. The finish is crisp with peach pit flavours intermingling with subtle mineral tones from the rocky site.[90pts The Wine Enthusiast]Made from fruit from the cool Hawk Creek Vineyard site located at altitude of 670 meters in the Sierra Foothills, it is a vibrant, crisp, clean white. A soft straw colour. Wonderful zesty flavours of green apple, papaya, and white peach, with a nice minerality.A beautiful colour with rich, silky, wild raspberry fruit flavours laced with pepper, sage, tar, and olive/herb tones. Aromas of raspberry, smoke, wild game, pepper and cinnamon. The fruit forward palate has a clean purity of Syrah fruit with great acid balance, and is very smooth and savory.Inspired by coastal Mediterranean vineyards grown alongside garrigue or local chaparral - in Easton’s case manzanita, pine, toyon, yerba santa, and chamise. A blend of two-thirds Syrah and one-third Cabernet Sauvignon, it is complex and savory, and very accessible after several years in the bottle.[92pts The Wine Enthusiast]An easy-drinking blend of Mediterranean varietals, Grenache 39%, Mourvedre 39% and Syrah 22%. Aged for 16 months in a mixture of French barrels, it shows bright ripe fruit, with deep boysenberry fruit aromatics, smoky/meaty/ gamey complex flavour components, and a lengthy creamy texture.Grenache 75%, Mourvedre 17% and Syrah 8%, Terre Rouge’s top Rhone varietal blend is very elegant, complex, and lively. It shows Grenache savoury plum and black cherry flavours, coupled with Mourvedre’s smoky gaminess, and a touch of richness and punch from the Syrah.Grapes are cold fermented in stainless steel tanks then aged for nine months in neutral French oak and stainless steel barrels before bottling. The complex and exotic fruit flavours of key lime, casaba melon, and papaya, with a delicious crispness. (See page 5 for more details.)Excellent value in an Amador County Zinfandel. Beaujolais-styled, generous black cherry and blackberry fruit aromas with a beautiful balance and a big, sumptuous and juicy mouthfeel. It also shows complex spicy aromas, with a nice creamy texture from 10 months in French oak barrels.[91pts Wine Enthusiast]The grapes were partially crushed, partially whole-cluster, and native fermented in a closed tank with some carbonic fermentation. This created an enjoyable and quaffable Zinfandel with a beautiful lavender floral quality, with savoury notes of violet, mountain sage, and yerba buena.Fruit from vines dating to the original planting in 1865 barely provide a crop each year at about 2 tons per acre. Aged exclusively in French oak, it shows thick brambly blackberry fruit with pepper, anise, clove, and other exotic spices. Fat and mouth-filling with great persistence on the palate.[94pts Wine Enthusiast]12806128731272312722121781217612872123831272112720NewTerre Rouge and Easton WinesTerre Rouge Enigma ‘15Sierra FoothillsMarsanne62%/Viognier25%/Roussanne13% Alc.14.5% Terre Rouge Grenache Blanc ‘15Sierra FoothillsGrenache Blanc Alc.13.5% Terre Rouge Syrah Les Cotes de l’Ouest ‘17CaliforniaSyrah96%/Viognier4% Alc.14.6% Terre Rouge Garrigue S’14Sierra FoothillsSyrah66.6%/Cabernet Sauvignon33.4% Alc.14.5% Terre Rouge Tete a Tete ‘15Sierra FoothillsGrenache39%/Mourvedre39%/Syrah22% Alc.14.6% Terre Rouge L’Autre ‘14Sierra FoothillsGrenache75%/Mourvedre17%/Syrah8% Alc.14.5% Easton Estate Sauvignon Blanc Valley’s Edge Vineyard S’22Shenandoah ValleySauvignon Blanc Alc.13.5% Easton Zinfandel ‘16Amador CountyZinfandel100% Alc.14.5% Easton Zinfandel Lot1852 Zinster S’21Fiddletown, Amador CountyZinfandel Alc.14.5% Easton Old Vine Zinfandel Rinaldi Vineyard ‘16Fiddletown, Amador CountyZinfandel100% Alc.14.5%
