Hoopes Vineyard

The Good Stuff

Whites

• Napa Chardonnay$30.00

  The Goldilocks chardonnay; it's not too rich, and not too lean. It's just right. This cuvee joins the best of our cooler hilltop grapes with our warmer valley floor blocks in one beautiful glass. In a nutshell: stone fruit, wafts of citrus, crisp apple, creamy vanilla nougat and layered minerality

• Genny's Carneros Small-Lot Chardonnay$65.00

  This vibrant golden chardonnay hails from Carneros, in a vineyard buttressing the San Pablo Bay, and yielding influence from the billowy maritime fog. A little cream, a hint of oak, a splash of butter all marry with the grapes during the barrel aging process. Only 300 cases produced. To be discovered: Jasmine, hot-buttered biscuits, toasted oak, dried pineapple, star flowers, and faded rose petals

• Sauvignon Blanc$50.00

  Fresh, clean, crisp...mouthwatering with a delicate aroma. Taste bud alert: lychee, Meyer lemon, sweet cantaloupe, vanilla-laden whipped cream, honeysuckle, and a hint of yellow peach

Rosé

• Rosé of Cabernet$35.00

  Get ready to sip substance and character disguised in an approachable pink cloak. This rose of Cabernet has an incredibly refreshing, juicy start, an abundant mid palate anxiousness, and a crisp and sustained finish. Le palette: cranberry, lychee, guava, watermelon, herbs de Provence

Reds

• Maya's Howell Mountain Merlot$75.00

  For naysayers who believe Merlot is a red-headed step child, this stunner will make you swoon and change your mind. Named after Maya, one of the Leaders of the Pack, this mountain-based Merlot defines sensuality in a glass. Not available in carafe or mini. Max 300 cases produced.

• Sophie's Oak Knoll Syrah$60.00

  Powerful, feminine, complex ... need we say more? This inky purple beauty undergoes co-fermentation, rarely practiced outside the Rhone in France, to deepen the color and transform the nose with the floral notes of barrel-partner Viognier. Max 300 cases produced. On the nose: Iris, Black Cherry, Madagascar Vanilla, Nutmeg, Cocoa

• Napa Cabernet Sauvignon$50.00

  The younger sister of our cabernet herd, this set of neophyte-vines, compiled from four different clones throughout our various cabernet vineyards, packs an incredible punch and delivers a true expression of the Grape King of Napa Valley, the cab. All about the base: Powdery milk chocolate, ripe red cherry, dark plum, cedar box, and baking spices

• Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon$125.00

  Our flagship wine; a bottle of pure nostalgia of Lindsay's childhood in Napa circa the 1980's. This wine hails from the most coveted Napa neighborhood for Cabernet Sauvignon, and, more importantly, the historic old-vine vineyard surrounding the Hoopes homestead. This is where it all started. High notes: Ripe currant, lilac, savory herbs, fennel, anisette, tobacco, graphite and black tea

• The Oakville Reserve: Dante's Block

  Only crafted in years with special designations, this wine is designed as a hand-selected cuvee of barrel reserves demonstrating a unique flavor profile or perspective on the vintage. Dante's Block, if produced, is our most coveted reserve in any given year. Always from Oakville. Always amazing. Not available in carafe or mini. Max 150 cases produced

  • Priceless. (but for You)$175.00
