Dry White
2011 Belle Starr-Blanc Du Bois
2011 Belle Starr-Blanc Du Bois
Blanc du Bois
She understood, but never accepted, the fact that her beloved husband was accidentally shot and killed by a Sheriff's posse. Her huge ranch became a safe refuge for those wanted by the law but only if she thinks they have been misjudged. Her beguiling smile enchants the lawmen who depart her ranch certain the desparados are long gone. No one stops to ponder how such a refined, gentle, and delicate woman runs her ranch so smoothly. Celebrate the cocksure waywardness in the Spirit of the Old West with this deliciously delicate dry white wine with surprising flair.

Aroma of Tangerine. Extremely well balanced with hints of Pineapple and Apple. Light Cherry finish.

2007 Madame Merlot
Merlot
She was a young French immigrant tired of the ways of the Old World. She had dared to come to the West in search of a life where she could do as she chose. Her beauty has opened doors in this New World even thought this was a different life than she had imagined. Many times she still felt like an exotic bird held in a golden cage. Yes, it looked like she had everything she wanted, but she would have to escape again to achieve the dangerous and thrilling life she knew could be hers. All she needed was the courage to buy the train ticket and leave her life of luxury, but for now she would reflect on this some more while she readied herself to dine with the man some called Diablo. Celebrate the reflections of life in the Old West and enjoy this fine mellow dry wine with an undertone of wild fruit.

2007 The Outlaw
Barbera
The Outlaw, secretly admired by most, lived by his own rules. Not totally without principles, he was guided by the Spirit of the Old West and set right in his own ways the wrongs he saw, not concerned with the rules of other men.

2006 Diablo
2006 Diablo
70% Syrah / 30% Lenoir
Dashing and flamboyant as he rode into town dressed in long, black suede, he easily stole the hearts of the ladies. His hidden intent was to fool the ladies while making the town his own. Little did the townspeople know that the devil had arrived and havoc would soon follow. How deceptive he was with rugged good looks, blue eyes and easy humor. All the while, hiding his dark and evil nature until he felt comfortable that his goal was near. Enjoy this dry and spicy wine with surprisingly smooth fruit flavor but beware the horns.

Dry and spicy, but with smooth and mellow tannins. Woody aroma with tastes of black plum and white pepper.

2008 Lone Wolf
Dry Red Lenoir
*** Gold Medal Winner Lone Star International ***

The agile and keen lone wolf and the rugged cowboy both used their adept skills to hunt and survive every day, both preferring to live alone in the wilderness. There is a certain freedom to that, but only similar souls would understand. Sensing a presence, their eyes locked with knowing looks of mutual admiration, both fighting the gnawing loneliness that welled up in the moment. It was the price they willingly paid for their life without boundries. These kindred spirits, each with no fear of the other, nodded acknowledgement that, for at least now, there was no threat in the air. Celebrate the freedom of the Old West with this dry red wine alone in its class and bursting with flavor that knows no limits.

Smooth woody aroma with a hint of ripe Black Plum. Elegant, rich flavors of Pomegranate, Raspberry, Blackberry, and Strawberry dance across the tongue with a hint of white pepper on the finish.

2006 Silver Spur
52% Cabernet Sauvignon / 41% Merlot / 7% Cab Franc
It arrived by Pony Express wrapped in brown paper but without a return address. Her hands trembled as she held the Silver Spur. She knew it to be John's. Lil did not regret killing the Sheriff, but living without her beloved John was punishment enough. But what signal was John sending her? Clutching the Spur, joy filled her heart when she realized that the Desperado was still alive, free, and making a new life somewhere so that they could be together again. Celebrate the romance of the Old West with this fruit forward dry red blend.

2007 Velvet Lady
2007 Velvet Lady
Red Zinfandel
As she was getting dressed for the evening in her velvet gown, Eve, a lady of soft yet striking features, was confident that she would turn every head in the place when she descended the staircase of her saloon. It was unfortunate that she had to move to this border town from the finishing school in California to claim ownership of the saloon after her father was killed in a duel. Eve was never lonely, though, since all of the cowboys vied for her attention from the moment she arrived in town. Eve seldom gave any one man much of her time. She did have an interest in one; perhaps because he was dark, silent, elusive, and, of course, handsome. He was always polite, but didn't have much to say. He was known only as John, and Eve noticed that he always made a quick exit when a lawman or bounty hunter came through the door. There was a rumor that he was in sort of trouble because of a woman named Lil and that he had to leave this town because of her. She could tell he was still in love with this Lil, but Lil was far away and she was here. Very soon, she vowed, he would be hers. Celebrate the wiles of the western enchantress in this fine wine. Only 265 cases produced.

Subtle aroma of wildflower with hints of oak. Dry and rich, with tastes of red velvet cake. A spice overtone of nutmeg with a cherry plum finish.

There is one in every crowd.

Kiss Ass Blush
Kiss Ass Blush
Sweet Blush
Everybody has to do it sometime. When we released our first blush, it was named Jackass and done tongue-in-cheek because the winemaker had been so upset with the stubbornness of the wine. But it did so well, we are now kissing our Jackass. In keeping with our tradition of on-going stories on different releases, Kiss Ass Blush seemed appropriate. Enjoy this fruity and flavorful sweet blush. Please serve chilled.

Premium Desert Wine
Almagres
Almagres
Lenoir
The Apache Indians knew of its existence first and led the Spanish explorers to Los Almagres in 1753; a mine rumored to be rich with gold and silver located in what is now Llano County , Texas . Because of Indian attacks on the expeditions, the exact location of this mine was lost. Legendaries such as Stephen F. Austin and Jim Bowie spoke of the mine and hopeful cowboys searched for it. But was it at Packsaddle Mountain or the Riley Mountains or maybe, somewhere else waiting to be rediscovered? You can explore and rediscover the richness of the Lenoir grape left in Texas long ago by those Spanish explorers in this wine; perhaps it is the true lost treasure from that time. Enjoy and celebrate the legends of the Old West.

Made in a ruby Port style with a sherry-like aroma. Smooth as velvet with full flavors of black plum and sugared blackberries.
