Wine in Rhode Island

An aromatic white with rich melon and apricot flavors. Our most popular wine! Gold Medal Winner at International Eastern Wine Competition.

Well balanced, our 2011 Chardonnay is a dry, bright wine with delicious fruit character, soft vanilla aromas and subtle butter in the finish. The ’11 is satisfying by itself while also complementing a mild or light meal. It is completely aged in gently used French Oak barrels, to highlight the fruit and round out the finish.

This old-world chardonnay grows on a steep, calcium and iron rich, sandstone hillside in the village of Flonheim. Whole grapes and juice fermented slowly and naturally in a single, century-old foudre. Extended aging sur-lie balances the crisp acidity and leaves this wine delicate and rounded. Made with the help and inspiration of our dear friend and grower, Nico Espenschied. This wine was aged in stainless barrels for 9 months at our winery in RI.

This Riesling is aromatic, dry (not at all sweet), and bursting with citrus zest and tropical fruit. The vineyard hangs on the historic red slate cliffs of Nierstein, a site originally planted by Romans along the Rhein. Earth-friendly farming and native fermentation in stainless with brief skin contact, it is a modern and clean wine. Our grower, mentor and co-winemaker, Eckehart Groehl is a pioneer in innovation and quality in the Rheinhessen region.

Bright and refreshing flavors of citrus and lemongrass are followed by zesty textures, minerality and crisp acidity. It is akin to a Sancerre, but with a little New World influence. Clean winemaking, extended skin contact and a slow, cold fermentation in stainless, it is the culmination of a decade of collaboration with our grower, mentor and co-winemaker, Eckehart Groehl.

Harvested after the third hard frost in November/December. Pressed frozen to capture the richest nectar of the Vidal. The seductive bouquet of fresh peaches and apricots makes this a truly unforgettable dessert wine. Brix at harvest 38%; Residual sugar, 19%.

Similar to a White Zinfandel; finished semi-dry. Fruity with rich berry flavors.

Our early harvested Cabernet Franc grapes were sent directly to the press and fermented in stainless. This fun, light and zippy rosé combines the lush flavors of strawberries and guava with peppery and floral aromatics. Our growers and co-winemakers Nico and Laura Espenschied practice sustainable farming and minimal intervention winemaking on their family estate in the Rheinhessen. A delicious Rosé for warm summer days, nights, and gatherings with friends and family year-round.

A fresh red wine with a spicy, toasty character, with notes of earthy, dark fruit.

A dry medium-bodied and delightfully smooth red wine with a peppery finish and a hint of oak.
