Pinot Noir
A New Chapter
Our boldly crafted Pinot Noir brings notes of wild cherry, black raspberry and vanilla. Hints of earth and allspice from seasoned American oak round out this wine – a tribute to the pursuit of doing things differently.
Zinfandel
A New Story Unfolds with Every Batch
Our Zinfandel Batch 88 is light to medium bodied with a soft tannin structure and lengthy finish. The layered flavors of Zinfandel coupled with our bold barrel ageing method result in notes of cranberries, prunes, Marcona almonds, toffee, oregano and thyme.
Cabernet Sauvignon
A Journey in Barrel Aging
Each lot began its journey in traditional French and American oak wine barrels and finished in signature bourbon barrels. Our unique barrel aging process gives this wine hints of caramel dried herbs and even a touch of smokiness on top of classic Cabernet flavors of dark cherry, blueberry, prune, and tobacco.
Red Blend
Tradition With a Twist
A well-structured and layered blend made primarily of Teroldego with Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah and Pinot Noir. Aged in American and French Oak, then finished off in bourbon barrels.
Chardonnay
A New Chapter
A new, bold take on a California classic; flavors of yellow apple, marzipan and clove; the addition of American oak aging gives the wine its unique flavors of marshmallow, coconut oil and vanilla bean.
Sauvignon Blanc
A New Chapter
The 1000 Stories 2022 Sauvignon Blanc balances stone fruit notes of white nectarine with the juicy citrus character of pomelo. Hints of fresh-cut grass are underscored by a backbone of minerality. The finish is crisp and bright, with excellent acidity.
