Lauterbach Cellars
|
|
The estate vineyard of Lauterbach Cellars is located in the heart of Sonoma County's Russian River appellation, an area famous for its Pinot Noir. Stew and Barb Lauterbach purchased the 15 acre parcel in 1992. Land preparation began in 1995 and 7.8 acres of Pinot Noir were planted in 1996. Three acres of Syrah clone 877 followed in 1998. They started making homemade wines with the first harvest and those wines met rave reviews. With the demand for their home made wines came the logical step of starting a winery... besides, they couldn't afford to give it away forever!

2000 Pinot Noir
Our 2000 Pinot Noir is a lovely ruby color and has a very fruity nose that continues onto the palate. Aromas of chocolate and plum abound in the bouquet followed by flavors of the same. Perfect paired with a range of foods from salmon to lamb, the wine finishes long and memorably.
|
2000 Syrah
Our 2000 displays an intense purple-red color with luscious aromas of blackberry, fig and blueberry. Berry flavors dance on the palate followed by a slight hint of chocolate. A great wine with red meats or hearty Mediterranean dishes, the wine has a superb, satisfying finish.

2001 Pinot Noir
Aromas of rich black cherry and tea give way to flavors of wild berry. Fruity on the palate, this Pinot Noir finishes long and perfectly complements any meal.
|
2001 Syrah
Dark and lush, smoky blackberry and coffee aromas entice and flavors of sour cherries and licorice continue the romance. Well-balanced yet powerful, concentrated fruit punches through the fulfilling finish.
