Spring 2025 Update

Our winemakers at the World of Pinot Tasting in Santa Barbara.

A Spring Letter from our Winemakers:

Spring is almost here, bringing with it renewed life, warmth, and of course, new wines. Warmer weather means it's time for bottling our latest vintages, another successful bud break at our one-acre vineyard, and springtime gatherings.

We've had a relatively mild winter in Truckee, with a few great storms interspersed with clear, warm days perfect for enjoying wine by the fireside. We were fortunate to savor wine both indoors and out, enjoying cozy days by the fireplace and invigorating hikes with our four dogs. Spring promises even warmer weather, the blooming of our small tulip patch, and more opportunities for outdoor wine tasting.

Our March release features the first wine from a unique vineyard location in Dutch Flat – our 2021 174 Chardonnay. This small town in the high Sierra Foothills, once one of the richest gold mining locations in California, boasts the highest elevation vineyard on I-80. Our oaked Chardonnay is steeped in both history and flavor.

Paired with our newly released 2019 Malbec and a limited production 2018 Best Man Pinot Noir, all three will compliment fantastically with all your Spring and Easter Celebrations.

We look forward to seeing you more often as the weather warms and the days lengthen.

Cheers to Spring!

Russ and Katy
