Our Wines:
- Our wines are the end product of all the work to grow and harvest the grapes. We have been fortunate to find two outstanding winemakers willing to work with us to make wine from our very small amount of fruit. It is basically just as hard (maybe harder) to make 15 cases of pinot gris as it is to make 100 cases. The same goes for the pinot noir. When we bottled the pinot noir, for example, our 35 cases were added on to the end of a day when over 1000 cases were bottled. We are also fortunate to have lucked into a site with so many wonderful positive conditions for growing our two varieties. We hope you will appreciate the unique character of our wines.
2007 Pinot Noir

2007 Pinot Noir
- Garden Shed Red


2008 Pinot Gris
- Starry Night White

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.

750 ml bottle - $29
1.5 Liter (magnum) bottle - $60
On October 19, 2008, we harvested 604 pounds of pinot gris grapes. They were immediately taken to August Cellars in Newberg where Geoffrey Crowther, owner and winemaker at Toluca Lane, began to make our 2008 Pinot Gris. The wine was bottled on February 19, 2009. -- Only 15 cases were produced.

We suggest serving our Pinot Gris slightly chilled (45 to 55 degrees).

The release of this wine was May 23, 2009.

750 ml bottle - $19
