The Farrier Wines are limited production varietals out of the Alexander Valley in Sonoma. New to the wine bar this past week, the red varietal, called Presshouse, has already become a customer favorite. A Cabernet Family blend, this red has a deep flavor palate that grows with every taste. A lush and ripe blueberry nose with hints of sandalwood, dried orange rind, black currant leads to a palate that is deep and firm with a savory mouthfeel. This is a great glass for sipping casually and really enjoying the array of flavors.

The white varietal, which will be on the by the glass list this upcoming Labor Day weekend, is a Semillon/Sauvignon Blanc blend. While this may not seem all that unique, it is different because it is more Semillon than Sauv Blanc, which is usually the case with this type of blend. The nose brings to mind scents of lime, beeswax, and yellow fig. There is a suppleness on the front and mid palate that is unusual for white varietals. The finish is bright and refreshing. This is a white to linger over and enjoy.

The Farrier Wines are a great addition to our always eclectic array of limited production and boutique wines. Come in this week and try a glass for yourself.
