AVAILABLE WINES
|
Polka -
A light, refreshing wine, with pleasant acidity, in a fruit forward style. Herbaceous nose (green leaves), with clementine and tangerine notes. Starts out with clear citrus flavors, but ends dry. It fakes you out; it seems sweet, but is actually quite dry. Winemaker’s notes: Polka is a dry white wine made principally from Riesling grapes. Accolades: 2021 San Fransisco International Wine Competition, Bronze. 2015 Indy International Wine Competition, Gold |

Ballet -
The nose is light, like fresh air after a spring rainshower. Most prominently, the nose is peach with flower blossom notes. We’ve also noticed pineapple and pink lemonade. The taste is superb, with the flavors cascading over the tongue. Ballet has a long, balanced finish, and is the favorite white of many of our staff. Winemaker’s notes: Ballet is a semi-sweet white wine made primarily with Lacrescent grapes. Accolades: 2019 San Fransisco International Wine Competition, Double Gold, 94 points. 2019 Indy International Wine Competition, White Wine of the Year, Double Gold, Best of Class |
|
Ballroom -
Stone fruit and raspberry make up the nose of this approachable, light-bodied red wine. The taste is reminiscent of dark cherry, with notes of vanilla and a hint of pepper on the back of the tongue. It has a pleasant, lingering finish, and a lovely ruby color. Winemaker’s notes: Ballroom is a dry red made from Sangiovese and other cold climate grapes. Accolades: 2021 San Fransisco International Wine Competition, Gold. 2019 Indy International Wine Competition, Bronze |

|
Conga -
The nose is mostly berry, with a spice finish. The taste seems complex; we taste persimmon, pomegranate (not to get snooty about it), red licorice, and leather. We taste blackberry on the front of the tongue, a spicy tingle at the back, and vanilla. One of our tasters said it “makes you want to dance.” Garnet color. Winemaker’s notes: Conga is an off-dry red wine made from Marquette and other cold climate grapes. Accolades: 2018 Indy International Wine Competition, Silver. 2018 Mid-American Wine Competition, Gold |
|
Tango -
Our winemaker’s tribute to pure fruit wine. Unashamed of its origins, it bursts with the taste of fresh raspberries, in a well-balanced wine with just enough sweetness and a clean finish. Winemaker’s notes: Tango is a sweet dessert wine made from 100% raspberries. Accolades: 2015 Wisconsin State Fair, Double Gold. 2014 Indy International Wine Competition, Silver Medal |
