2008 Semillon

Classic gold in color, which will deepen with time. The flavors are rich and complex, with hints of melon and sage with a touch of smoky oak. Semillon is delicious on it's own or when paired with salads, seafood, and light cheeses.

2009 Estate Melange Blanc

This is our first biodynamic white wine from our vineyard here at Wilridge. It is a blend of Pinot Gris, Sauvignon Blanc, Roussanne and Viognier. It was vinified in stainless steel tanks creating a very light, crisp and acidic summer wine. It will pair with an array of foods! Only 55 cases produced!

2008 Red Mt. Melange

The 2008 Red Mountain Melange aroma is redolent of cassis and herbs. It exhibits good structure and the capacity to age for many years. Old world in style but still with the indelible mark of Red Mountain terroir.

1999 Brut

This is a blend of seventeen base wines from the 1999 harvest that were fermented in French oak barrels. A rich and creamy wine with tiny bubbles and a toasty, nutty flavor.

2004 Syrah - Sundance Vynd

This rich and fulfilling Syrah opens with aromas of blackberry syrup, raspberry, leather, au jus and barrel toast. In the mouth is displays flavors of berry fruits, spice and cream, balanced with supple tannins and acidity.

2008 Pinot Grigio

Crisp, clean & fresh. The 2008 Wilridge Pinot Grigio has wonderful crisp citrus notes on the nose with mellow lemon custard and a hint of vanilla on the finish.

2003 Cuvee Alexander

Bright aromas of Chambord, cassis, pencil lead, damp earth and mocha are framed by toasty oak, toffee and barrel spice. In the mouth it displays juicy black cherry and ripe plum flavors

2009 Two Dancers

There is a comforting darkness to the dance of this blend - spicy, cherry, leather, buttery caramel, blackberry and meaty notes that have a subtle layer of violets as it lingers in your mouth.

2010 Riesling

Welcome to this intensely aromatic example of Riesling from NHV for 2010. Please enjoy the rich tropical fruit nose accented with hints of that Riesling "petrol." Juicy fruit gum, banana, passion fruit, papaya and mango fill the mouth upon entry. And we hate to think what they do upon exit. Who writes this stuff?

2009 Cabernet Franc

Now this is dessert in a glass! Pear, peach, apricot and some light citrus notes fill your senses as you partake in this fine example of a late harvest dessert wine.
