Varietal: Chardonnay | Location: United States - California
Swirl this Chardonnay and indulge in its rich aromas of pear, apple and tropical fruit. Hints of vanilla and toasty oak spices come from oak fermentation, while a floral note is from a splash of Viognier. Sip and discover silky layers reminiscent of pineapple, melon, fig and baked apple. The lingering, fruity finish is laced with creÌ€me bruÌ‚leÌe nuances. This wine’s lush flavors and crisp acidity pair especially well with creamy dishes; our favorites include clam chowder, smoked salmon angel hair pasta, four-cheese risotto, and chicken with tarragon cream sauce.
Varietal: Merlot | Location: United States - California
Our Merlot is our signature “Blackstone Style†with rich fruit aromas, supple oak characteristics and soft tannins. You’ll discover dark cherry and berry aromas with a touch of clove to please the palate. The texture is ripe and soft in the mouth, with a smooth, lingering finish. Blackstone Merlot is the perfect companion to a seasoned rack of lamb, grilled burgers, and tomato-based pasta dishes. Bring it to a neighbor’s BBQ or your own backyard table.

WS 88
A soft mouthfeel makes this wine both approachable and versatile with lots of ripe dark fruit flavors of blackberry and black cherry, complemented by bright red fruit flavors of raspberry and strawberry. Spicy notes of black pepper and vanilla add layers which allow the fruit to be the star.
Varietal: White Blend | Location: Spain - Castilla y León - Rueda
Young wine determined by the character of the Verdejo grape variety native to the Rueda area, which forms the basis of this wine together with a small percentage of Viura. Expansive fruity aroma, pale yellow colour with subtle greenish highlights and on the palate, initial sensation of smooth acidity which turns to caramel under the tongue.
