Product Details

Three special wines from ACORN Winery, all from the Alegría Vineyard, and all field-blends: Grüner Veltliner, Rosé of Cabernet Franc, and Sangiovese. 2 bottles of each when you get 6 bottles, and 4 bottles of each when you get a case of 12 bottles.

  • I proudly continue the tradition of family-farmed, field-blend wines with grapes from the Alegría vineyard, with this Grüner Veltliner. Following the typical practice of the 19th century and respecting the passion of ACORN's original founders, complementary varieties are interplanted and harvested and fermented together. This field blend is primarily Grüner Veltliner, but includes Traminer, Ehrenfelser, Kerner, Silvaner, Viognier, Furmint, and Scheurebe. 91 Points, Wine Enthusiast ( Aromas of fresh green apple, ginger, lime peel, and chopped herbs highlight the nose of this wine. The palate offers vibrant acidity and edgy tension framing flavors of pithy lemon peel, thyme, white flowers, and shattered stone across a long finish. Hidden Gem. —Tom R. Capo )
  • Cabernet Franc grapes from the Alegría Vineyard were cold-soaked for several hours, and then some juice was drained off to generate the sparkly pink of this vibrant rosé of Cabernet Franc. The fresh, juicy, brambly and strawberry aromas and flavors virtually scream spring, while the expressive texture makes this wine an excellent food companion all year long, especially at Thanksgiving. 90 Points, Wine Enthusiast ( Aromas of fresh raspberry, bruised melon, marmalade, and white flowers drive the nose of this deep-peach-pink rosé of Cabernet Franc. The palate is weighty and round, with flavors of sweet nectarine, candied orange peel, citrus blossom, and strawberry-lime coulis throughout the finish. Fans of a rounder style will love this. -- Tom R. Capo)
  • This field blend is primarily Sangiovese, but includes Canaiolo Nero and Mammolo Toscano, following the 19th century tradition of interplanting a number of different varieties that are then harvested and fermented together. 92 Points, Wine Enthusiast (The nose of this wine delivers plush aromas of roasted cherry, fresh raspberry, coffee, and grilled bread. Succulent berry-fruit character on the palate is accented by lively herbs, flowers, and spice throughout a long finish. Give this some time in the cellar to soften and enjoy with pappardelle al cinghiale. —Tom R. Capo)
