On
September 28, 2007, 1,224 pounds of pinot noir grapes were
harvested and taken to Panther Creek Cellars. The result of
our harvest was one full barrel and one half-sized barrel
that aged our wine until September of 2008 when it was
bottled. It has been bottle aging since. Winemaker Michael
Stevenson (Panther Creek Cellars and Stevenson-Barrie wine)
did minimal intervention and “let the wine make itself.” In
this way we are able to learn what is in our soil and how
our grapes taste before any winemaking magic is applied. --
Only 35 cases were produced.
We recommend that you
open our 2007 Garden Shed Red about 30 minutes before
serving and serve it at just below room temperature (about
62-65 degrees).
The release of this wine was
May 23, 2009.

- Garden Shed
Red
On October 14,
2008, 2,375 pounds of pinot noir grapes were harvested and
taken to Panther Creek Cellars. The resulting wine filled
three neutral oak barrels that were aged until September of
2009 when it was bottled. Again, winemaker Michael Stevenson
did little intervention focusing on making wine that
showcased our great soils and the nice blend of clones that
we grow -- Only 75 cases were produced.
We recommend
that you serve our 2008 Garden Shed Red at just below room
temperature (about 62-65 degrees).
Official release
of this wine will be at our Memorial Day Weekend Celebration
at Calamity Hill.
