Our 6th Dry Creek Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Dark purple, with inviting aromas of red and blue fruit. The oak is once again restrained, balanced and deliciously sweet. I get hints of fresh sawdust, cedar, and sandalwood that segues perfectly to balanced fruit and acidity. The after-taste goes on for days. The mouthfeel is at first spicy, but finishes elegantly. This reminds me of the old-world styles of Napa Cabs from the 80's. The textures and aftertaste perfect. Drink from 2020 to 2026. Produced ~ 200 cases. Discounts on 6 or more bottles.
A Chardonnay from Dry Creek that blends old-world with new-world... Aged in French oak to create a near perfect balance of fruit, texture, and acidity. Imagine a California Chardonnay that was born in France. An amazing white wine with aromatics of Meyer lemon chiffon with whisps of minerality. For wine drinkers that are looking to blow their minds with near perfection in a white wine... Before Covid, a New York city Michelin-starred restaurant wanted it on their list. Too bad for them because we don't make enough... Only 60 cases made. Drink from 2019 to 2024. By the way, we only make Chardonnay about every 5th year - and it has to be spectacular.
Purple, with alluring aromas of blue fruits, cocoa, and sweet cedar. Perfectly balanced and quaffable. Most similar to the 2012. Gorgeous and through fate... our friend and grower Jim Ricci gave a few... we are down to less than 20 cases of these... Drinking beautifully. Call if you need.
Serendipity... our spectacular 2015 Eifrig DCV Cabernet Sauvignon (long ago sold out), was accidentally gravity fed into a tank of Touriga Nacional, Tinto Madeira, and Tinto Cao (rare Portuguese grapes grown in the famous Raymond Burr Vineyard, also in Dry Creek). A beautiful wine was born; Aged for nearly 4 years in French Oak, a full-bodied red that brings together the beauty of California Cab with the sensuality of Portuguese grapes. Not to be missed…
Our 6th vintage of Dry Creek Valley Cabernet. Gorgeous and probably our best yet. Dark purple, with inviting aromas of red and blue fruit. The oak is once again restrained, balanced and deliciously sweet. There are hints of fresh sawdust, cedar, and sandalwood that segues perfectly to fruit and acid flavors. The after taste goes on for days. The mouthfeel is as elegant as I've had from any California Cabernet - reminsicent of the grand Napa Cabs from 1986 and 2007 vintages. The textures and aftertaste perfect. We made a limited number of magnums... this will age for another 4 to 7 years and simply get better.
A limited release of 100% DCV Cabernet from Ricci's Vineyard... this 2015 shows integrated fruit, oak and grape tannins in a perfectly balanced Cabernet style, but more New World than we've ever done... This is a true masterpiece. $115
Old world meets new world... and as good as any Merlot I've tasted... Ever tried Petrus at $3,500 a bottle, Le Macchiole at $325? My merlot has spice, fruit, cherry cola, black currants and chocolate notes... and an aftertaste that goes on for days... fantastic flavors and absurd pricing... At $100 this stuff is a lay up for serious red drinkers. If you join the Eifrig CellarsSociety, $80 is a steal. WE ARE NOW SOLD OUT
The 3rd vintage of Eifrig... and one that will age for years. Sweet wood tannins, balanced with slightly hidden fruit, but the beautiful Ricci Vineyard "dust" from the vineyard terroir shows through in a more European style... Buy this to cellar! Best from 2019 to 2024.
The 2nd vintage of Eifrig... And my dear friend Porter Stansberry declares it to be "one of the three or four best wines we've ever tasted, anywhere, at any time."
