Dan and Ruthann thieving wine. At least it’s one of our own barrels!

Now we’re ready to taste how the ’11 Cab is coming along. And how was it? Just about ready. We’ll bottle in a couple weeks.

It’s easy to spot Nuance Zinfandel with its distinctive magenta label.

After months of unforeseen delays, we got back on track and were able to bottle our 2010 Cabernet in November, 2012. We anticipate that it will be ready for release in late spring or summer of 2013.

In November, we had our first chance to visit The Wine Foundry’s state-of-the-art Sonoma facility. We’re looking forward producing some great vintages here.
After a late spring and cool summer delayed the harvest, our 2011 grapes finally came in. We were on hand for the sorting and punch down.

Danielle has some of our freshly harvested 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.

We held our inaugural wine launch event in April, ’10 to celebrate the launch of our Nuance Wines label and the release of our first vintage, a 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon from Oakville in the Napa Valley. It was a limited production and we were absolutely thrilled to sell out our entire 2007 vintage at the event!!!

Amidst the barrels, Dan samples the first of our 2009 Cabernet at Crushpad’s annual Mashup.
