The Wines
SOLO
"Its brilliant delineation and full-bodied texture, with nothing out of place in a seamless integration of all its building blocks make for a stylistic, flavorful, elegant, yet powerful wine..."
Estate Cabernet
"...excellent...the wine is attractive, rich, medium-bodied, and while tannic, not excessively so.."
Estate Merlot
"...Aromas of plum, blueberry and blackberry are fresh and vibrant, the fruit is concentrated and layered, and the tannins are long and smooth, with a judicious amount of spicy oak in the background. Absolutely delicious."
Estate Chardonnay:
With two Carneros Vineyards and one in Yountville, we have the luxury of a lot of ingredients for our Chardonnay recipe: mineral and flint from the cooler sites; tropical fruit, pear and honey from the warmer site. Add lees stirring and malo-lactic fermentation as desired. Age in mild oak for a hint of vanilla and hazelnut. Chill before bottling.
2009 Miller Ranch Sauvignon Blanc:
Sauvignon Blanc has tremendous vibrancy and exotic aromatics. Our road map to creating Miller Ranch is simple: cold, stainless steel fermentation to preserve the citrusy freshness, multiple yeast strains to enhance the aromas and enough barrel fermented Semillon to make the texture silky.
