Tasting Notes & Food Pairing
Our latest gloriously gem-toned Lemberger from Sunrise Hill Vineyard is absolutely luscious in every aspect.  Scents of ripe black currants, baked blueberries and brambleberries and the dark and sensuous aroma of violets are cradled by a gentle hint of pipe tobacco.  With the first sip a flood of the flavors of harvest and spice come to the fore.   Juicy red and black berries suffuse your senses all braced by the most tantalizing fall aromas of oak, cedar, tobacco, and white and black pepper.  Perfect for the holidays to come!  Embrace our 2021 Sunrise Hill Lemberger and it will embrace you back.

Vintage Notes

Winter of 2021 gave us some surprisingly warm days and just enough snow to be protective when the temperatures dipped low.  Early spring was lovely - sunny and mostly dry with undisturbed flowering and fruit set.  Beginning in June, the summer rains arrived and persisted through August.  Once into September and more so in October, we were blessed with warm and dry weather, allowing us to round out our harvest season in good conditions.  The abundant moisture during the summer months resulted in a smaller crop but yielded very fruit-driven and expressive reds and sparkling and bright and refreshing whites and rosés.
