Cherrivino
Port first became popular when the English were at war with France and therefore couldn’t drink French wines. In the seafaring days when this occurred, something had to be done to wine to allow it to survive the long ocean journeys. The addition of grape spirits allowed the wine to last longer and to be more resistant to temperature changes. Wines altered in this way are called “fortified wines.” Our unique Cherrivino was made with Montmorency cherry wine (cherries from Door County, Wisconsin) fortified with Grape Spirits from Fresno, California., and blended from multiple vintage years with long aging in American oak barrels. Enjoy it neat or with your favorite dessert. Blend: 100% Montmorency Cherry Wine fortified with grape spirits Grower Region: Country Ovens, Door County, Wisconsin Aged: American oak, 72+ months Winemaker’s Tasting Notes Color: brownish ruby Aroma: maraschino cherries, praline, cedar, toasted nuts, caramel Palate: cherries, raisins, licorice, vanilla, coconut, butterscotch Body: full Finish: complex, warm, fruity, nutty Foods: strong-flavored cheeses like Gorgonzola or blue, sweet desserts, sour cherry pie Residual Sugar: 10.5%

Riesling 2020
Originated in the Rhine region of Germany. Along with Chardonnay, Riesling is one of the top white grapes in the world. In the United States Washington’s Columbia Valley has solidified as the country’s premier Riesling region, showing a superb balance of ripeness and acidity. Although often assumed to be a sweet wine by American wine drinkers, Rieslings have the potential to make wines that range from bone dry to overwhelmingly sweet & dessert-like. At 1% residual sugar, our 2020 Lynfred Winery Riesling has an impeccable balance of sweetness and acidity. Enjoy this crisp and refreshing summer white wine.

This interspecific variety produces wines with distinctive Muscat aromas and flavors, lively floral nuances, and a clean and crisp acidity. Enjoy our first-ever Lynfred Valvin Muscat with curry dishes, roasted shrimp, and red pepper dishes.

Sparkling Brut Chile
A dazzling Sparkling Brut born from the renowned Casablanca Valley in Chile. Renowned for its chilly climate and invigorating Pacific Ocean breezes, Casablanca Valley offers the ideal terroir for creating exquisite sparkling wines. Harvested during the crisp morning hours and early in the season, the grapes underwent fermentation in stainless steel tanks at cool temperatures, ensuring the preservation of freshness and fruity aromas. To enhance depth and complexity, a portion of the wine was aged in French oak barrels, infusing the blend with a touch of spiciness. The magic continued as the wine underwent a second fermentation in a high-pressure tank, imparting effervescence to every sip. A luxurious lees contact of approximately 8 months added layers of complexity and creaminess to our Lynfred Sparkling Wine Brut. Blend: 100% Chardonnay Grower Region: Casa Blanca Valley, Chile Residual Sugar: 0.9% Winemaker’s Tasting Notes Color: pale straw Aroma: citrus, red apple, stone fruit Palate: peach, toasted almonds, butter, hints of honey and ginger Body: light Finish: creamy, refreshing, lingering Foods: caviar, shellfish, smoked salmon, oysters

Vin De City Sparkling Rosé
Our Vin De City Rose Sparkling was made with Cabernet Sauvignon grapes grown in the beautiful Central Valley of Chile. This wine region is famous for having a Mediterranean climate with a wide range of temperatures between day and night due to the proximity to the Pacific Ocean and the Andes Mountains. These vineyards receive coastal breezes that help keeping cool temperatures during summer. Our Vin de City sparkling is a good example of Chile’s Central Valley.

A clean and slow fermentation in stainless steel tanks, at 55 degrees, produced a crisp and refreshing base wine. The second fermentation, where the bubbles were produced, was made through Charmat Method, allowing the development of a beautiful perlage and elegance secondary flavors.

Ruby Reserve Port
Port first became popular when the English were at war with France and therefore couldn’t drink French wines. The English went in search of a new location to set up vineyards and the Duoro Valley in Portugal proved to be quite suitable. The vineyards are laid out along very steep hills, terraced to provide footing for the vines. In the seafaring days when this occurred, something had to be done to wine to allow it to survive the long ocean journeys. The addition of brandy (grape spirits) allowed the wine to last longer and to be more resistant to temperature changes. Wines altered in this way are called “fortified wines.” Our unique Lynfred Ruby Reserve was made with Cabernet Sauvignon & Sangiovese wines, fortified with brandy from Fresno, California and blended from multiple vintages with a long aging in American oak barrels.

Marionvino Port
Port first became popular when the English were at war with France and therefore couldn’t drink French wines. In the seafaring days when this occurred, something had to be done to wine to allow it to survive the long ocean journeys. The addition of grape spirits allowed the wine to last longer and to be more resistant to temperature changes. Wines altered in this way are called “fortified wines.” Our unique Lynfred Marionvino was made with Blackberry wine fortified with Grape Spirits from Fresno, CA and blended from multiple vintages with a long aging in American oak barrels. Blackberries have been referred to as the “cabernet” of berries due to their earthy, wine-like taste.

Reserve Wines
Chardonnay 2018 Reserve
Our Reserve Chardonnay was crafted in an aromatic and floral style, but was also barrel aged for a few months. We periodically stirred the wine in the barrels, known as surlie, to enhance the Color and elegance of the final blend. This Chardonnay is rich in floral notes with hints of toasted almond, French vanilla and a pleasant fruitiness. Blend/Grower: 85% Chardonnay from Kamiak Vineyards, Snake River, Washington and 15% Viognier from Ripon, California.

Marsanne Chardonnay
Marsanne is a white wine grape, most found in the Northern Rhône region of France. It is often blended with Roussanne and other whites. Wines produced mostly from Marsanne grapes have low acidity and develop a silky, exotic, oily texture. We kept the Marsanne portion over its fine lees for almost two years to enhance its creamy texture. Then, we blended with a young, crisp, and refreshing Chardonnay from Columbia Valley, Washington. The final wine shows a velvety, yet crisp character. This gorgeous blend will be stunning paired with a variety of poultry and fish dishes, as well as salads and many mild cheeses.

Riesling 2016
Along with Chardonnay, Riesling is one of the most famous white grapes in the world. Originating in the Rhine region of Germany, Rieslings often show a superb balance of ripeness and acidity, producing all styles from crisp, dry versions to rich, sweet late-harvest wines. Columbia Valley in Washington is an ideal are for growing Riesling because the soil and climatic conditions are outstanding for its production. In fact, no place in the United States produces more Riesling than the Columbia Valley.

Rose'
Before starting the fermentation of our reserve red wines we use a special technique named “Saignée” (from French). This is the practice of removing (“bleeding off”) some of the juice from the must in order to more deeply concentrate the tannins, color and flavor in the red wines. This rose was made with 45% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Petite Sirah juices allowing one day of maceration over their skins. The rich juice produced was cleaned by cold settling and fermented at low temperature like a regular white to preserve all the fresh fruity aromas and flavors in a dry medium body rose style.

Riesling 2019
Originated in the Rhine region of Germany. Along with Chardonnay, Riesling is one of the top white grapes in the world. In the United States Washington’s Columbia Valley has solidified as the country’s premier Riesling region, showing a superb balance of ripeness and acidity. Although often assumed to be a sweet wine by American wine drinkers, Rieslings have the potential to make wines that range from bone dry to overwhelmingly sweet & dessert-like. Our 2019 Lynfred Winery Riesling has an impeccable balance of sweetness and acidity.

Muscat 2015
The Muscat grapes for this vintage came from Colavita Vineyards, a fourth-generation, family-owned vineyard in Lodi, CA. The 2015 vintage was one of the earliest harvests in California history and the Muscat grapes for this particular wine were harvested July 22. The Muscat grape family consists of over 200 grape varieties and is known to be one of the oldest grape varieties in the world. Muscat is also the only grape to produce wine with the same aroma as the grape itself and is categorized as one of the ‘four aromatics’ (Muscat, Gewurztraminer, Viognier and Riesling). Muscat can be made from dry to sweet, and our 2015 vintage runs on the dry side at only 1% residual sugar.

Enjoy this drinkable Barbera on its own or with Italian foods. Cheers! Blend: 85% Barbera, 15% Merlot. Grower/Vineyard: Heringer Vineyards, Clarksburg, CA / Borra Vineyards, Lodi, CA.

Petite Sirah 2017
Petite Sirah, also known as the Durif grape, is one of the biggest, most powerful and tannic wines produced in America. Petite Sirah is often used to literally ‘beef up’ other wines, such as thin Cabernets or wines that could use a little tannic boost. As a stand-alone varietal, it’s praised for being a chewy wine that defies its ‘little’ name. Our 2017 Petite Sirah was made from 100% Petite Sirah grapes from Heringer Estates in California. The wine shows a beautiful balance of tannins and rich flavors of oak, raisins and spice.

Teroldego 2017
Teroldego is the leading indigenous red variety in Trentino-Alto Adige, a northeastern region of Italy at the southern tip of Austria and Switzerland. In California this variety has been cultivated since a couple decades ago for production of deep, dark, red blends. California Teroldegos tend to be bigger than their Italian counterparts. This variety offers versatility to be produced in different styles, from young and fruity to aged and complex wines. Our exclusive 2017 Teroldego was made with grapes from Clarksburg, California; blending a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon from Washington to enhance the body and oaky character of the final wine.

Rosso Leggero
To create this rose’ wine, we drained out part of the juice of a freshly crushed Pinot Noir after 24 hours of maceration. This slightly pink-colored juice was then fermented over fresh Muscat grape skins. The fermentation was carried out at low temperatures to keep the aromas and flavors from both varieties. The result was a rose’ wine with refreshing and vibrant aromas of cherry, pineapple and lychee. Inspired by the Italian saying, ‘dolce far niente’ or ‘sweet and simple lifestyle’, this wine was named Rosso Leggero. Enjoy this exclusive wine now or later in the year, especially with friends and family.
