The Wines!!
Boneyard Unrefined White $15.99
Super fun. The fairly pale straw colored wine is one of intense and exciting aromatics. Each sniff bringing in a new layer showing pineapple, granny smith, lemon drop, fresh grass and a creamy quality. The palate is medium to full bodied and bone dry with lovely fruit showing its exotic nature. The wine is held together beautifully with a streak of acidity.
Chardonnay, Alfaro family $24.99
Light straw in color. The intense flavors of pear, apple and white peach are followed by a hint of lemon curd and honeyed oak. Aged for 8 months in 20% new French oak, 1800 cases produced.
Pinot Noir, Alfaro Family $26.99
Ruby in color, medium in body. Bright cherry and raspberry on the nose, with abundant Bing cherry, spice and vanilla flavors on the palate. This wine has well-integrated tannins and refreshing acidity. Aged 8 months in 25% new French oak, 3000 cases produced.
Corralitos Syrah, Alfaro Family $15.99
On the nose are aromas of brandied fruit, smoked meat, and bitters; and on the palate, flavors of ripe raspberry, clove, and jasmine tea, with flourishes of cola and candied ginger unfolding on a tangy finish. Earthy impressions of crushed stone and spicy oak lend harmony and dimension. The wine is medium-bodied, with friendly tannins and high-toned acids that bring freshness to palate — an appealing expression of the vineyards’ proximity to the sea.
Gimelli Old Vine Zinfandel, Alfaro Family $24.99
Rich and flavorful, with notes of blackberry jam, raspberry, and dark cherry. Aged for 13 months in 20% new French oak, 488 cases produced.
