We pride ourselves on capturing and showcasing the very best Colorado grapes, by means of minimal intervention in the winery, temperature-controlled fermentations, whole-cluster pressing, and careful and meticulous blending.

2020 ALL THE FLOWERS
$22 750 mL
This unique aromatic white wine is a blend of 41% Viognier, 27% Muscat, 17% Gewürztraminer, and 15% Sauvignon Blanc. A vibrant expression of the Grand Valley AVA, this dry wine is ripe with tropical fruit flavors and a complex bouquet, reminiscent of "all the flowers."
2020 THE ALPENGLOW ROSÉ
$22 750 mL
The Alpenglow gets its vibrant ruby color and rich fruit flavors from a core of 55% Chambourcin. The supporting blend of 22% Viognier, 15% Muscat, and 8% Sauvignon Blanc contributes finesse and complexity, while adding floral tones and citrus nuances to this dry rosé wine.
$25 750 mL
This brightly hued rosé, made from the relatively unknown St. Vincent grape, is dramatic both in the glass and on the palate. Flavors of pomegranate, cranberry, and ripe plum, along with aromas of citrus peel and herbes de Provence, pair perfectly with grilled or smoked cuisine.
2020 SAUVIGNON BLANC
$22 750 mL
The high-desert climate of Colorado's Grand Valley yields an intense, tropical expression of this noble grape. Rich flavors of melon mingle with floral aromas, leading to a dry, mineral-driven finish in this elegant, medium-bodied Sauvignon Blanc.
2020 THE GM
$22 750 mL
Fortuitous timing gave us the ability to press these two unique grapes on the same day and ferment them together. The resulting wine gained wild, tropical aromas from the Malvasia Bianca and received its spicy, dry backbone from the Grüner Veltliner.
2019 RRV
$22 750 mL
The distinctly different styles of wine from the Rhône and Rhine river valleys come together in our 2019 RRV white blend. This food-friendly, all-season wine boasts texture and spice from the Roussanne, stone fruit aromas and acidity from the Riesling, and floral and orchard fruit flavors from the Viognier.
2019 VIOGNIER
$22 750 mL
The high-desert climate of Western Colorado yields a unique expression of this noble variety, most commonly associated with the Rhône Valley in France. Fermented and aged in temperature-controlled, stainless steel, our medium-bodied Viognier shows notes of passionfruit, honeydew melon, and freshly cut herbs, with a crisp, dry finish.
$25 750 mL
At nearly 6,000 feet above sea level, our estate vineyard is one of the highest elevation Riesling plantings in the world. These vines struggle through a combination of ancient river rock and calcium-rich soil to produce a racy, lean, mineral-driven expression of this noble grape. Notes of lime zest, white peach, and orchard flowers complement a crisp, mouthwatering finish. Limit three per order.
2019 CHARDONNAY
$25 750 mL
Crafted in a classic Chablis style, our 2019 estate-grown Chardonnay is sharp, angular, and lean. We sourched these grapes from over 30-year-old, own-rooted Old Wente clone vines, whole-cluster pressed them, fermented the juice in stainless steel, and allowed the resulting wine to rest on its lees with minimal aging in used, French oak. Limit three per order.
$22 750 mL
Our M+M blend is comprised of 75% Muscat and 25% Malvasia Bianca. We co-fermented these two ancient varieties with dramatic results. Decadently floral, yet serious in profile, this wine is intensely aromatic with notes of honeysuckle and orchard flowers, flavors of ripe kiwi and green melon, and a sharp, dry, mineral-driven finish.
2019 ROUSSANNE
$22 750 mL
Native to the Northern Rhône region of France, this opulent, full-bodied variety excels in Colorado's climate. Hot, desert days allow for phenolic ripeness, while cool nights provide a crisp acidity. Maturation in used French oak rounds out the spectrum, adding spice tones to the rich flavors of baked pear, lemon curd, and chamomile tea.
FIRE + ICE RIESLING
$25 750 mL
This one-of-a-kind Riesling is a 50-50 blend from two of the most drastically different vintages in Colorado history. Equal parts of the scorchingly hot and dry 2018 vintage and the exceptionally cool and wet 2019 vintage combine in this experimental, effervescent expression of Riesling to produce a unique, multi-vintage taste of our estate vineyard.
2019 RESERVE DRY RIESLING
$28 750 mL
For our 2019 Reserve Dry Riesling, we delayed harvesting the grapes from our steepest vineyard rows until the last possible moment, two days after a dramatic frost event. We hand-picked the grapes on October 13th and vinified only the free-run juice to produce this magnificent expression of high-elevation Riesling. Limit three per order.
$23 750 mL
Our alpine desert climate, along with a compact growing season, at nearly 5,900 feet above sea level, produces grapes of high concentration and vibrant acidity. Silky in texture, our off- dry style of Riesling is brimming with notes of ripe peach and starfruit, and it pairs perfectly with a multitude of cuisines, especially spicy dishes.
$25 750 mL
We sourced the fruit for our 2018 Reserve Riesling from our steepest, hillside rows. These were the first vines we pruned and the last grapes we picked, harvested on the fifteenth of October after a dramatic frost event. This sweet, unctuous wine was bright orange when we first pressed it, and while the color has shifted, the concentrated aromas of mango, apricot, and chamomile have remained unchanged. Limit three per order.
$25 750 mL
Our 2018 Chardonnay is a 50-50 blend of fruit from estate-grown Old Wente clone vines planted in 1987 here at the Redstone Vineyard and from select vineyard blocks at Talbott Farms on East Orchard Mesa in Palisade. This Chardonnay has tropical fruit aromas, a honeyed texture, balanced acidity, and soft nuances of French oak.
