We’ve had excellent back to back harvests. It’s been a great season! 100% Colorado grown fruit is now in the cellar. We made all of our favorites plus added four new wines that we are very excited about.

We want to make wines from grapes and fruits grown by our neighbors in this desert oasis on the west slope of the Rocky Mountains. We want to capture the intense flavors of Colorado-grown fruit and share with everyone these beautiful wines.

We look forward to seeing you – Garrett and Cailin Portra, owners
