This full-bodied blend is comprised of Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, and
Grenache ? all from our Estate-grown fruit.
This
wine, made from 2 barrels each of Zinfandel and Petite Sirah and 1
barrel of Grenache) is very similar to the 2002 bottling which was
extremely well received. American and European barrel-aging has lent
the 2005 Mixed Black soft oak tannins accompanied by subtle spice
nuances. This well-structured wine features a pleasant, round mouthfeel
with dark fruit aromas and flavors. The Grenache provides the blend
with a slight earthiness and pepper character, while the Zinfandel in
the blend really pulls the fruity raspberry notes forward, and the
Petite Sirah lends its? dark color and abundant soft tannins to the
finished blend. This wine will certainly benefit from 3 to 5+ years in
the cellar.
The 2005 Vintage yielded just 99 cases.

2005
Zinfandel"The
Epic"
Paso Robles
The Nadeau Family Vintners? 2005 ?Epic? Zinfandel is another powerhouse Zinfandel.
This dense, brash Zinfandel is bound to appeal to those wine enthusiasts who enjoy our BIG Zins like the ?Westside? and the ?Critical Mass.? Big fruit aromas and flavors framed with a subtle hint of American Oak make this wine a standout.
The 2005 vintage yielded only 183 cases.
The
Nadeau Family Vintners' 2005 'Late Harvest' Zinfandel is a very bright,
fruit-driven wine (made from 100% Zin) which has WOWed all who we?ve
allowed to preview it. It's deep color invites the taster to smell the
abundant Black Cherry and Raspberry aromas. The first sip reveals a
dense yet lush, fruity wine with just enough residual sugar to
complement any chocolate dessert as well as strong cheeses, fine
cigars, and stimulating conversation. This wine is ready to drink now
and will not likely benefit from significantly more bottle age.
The 2005 Vintage yielded approximately 195 cases of 375 ml bottles.
The
red wines of the southern Rhone Valley inspired the Nadeau Family
Vintners? 2005 Grenache. The grapes for this 100% Grenache came from
vineyards on the cooler ?west-side? of the Paso Robles appellation.
A
combination of French oak and American oak barrel-aging has lent the
2005 Grenache lovely, soft oak tannins accompanied by subtle toasty-oak
nuances. This wine will continue to develop wonderful bottle bouquet
over the next few years.
Serve this medium-bodied wine with
spicy and moderately hearty fare. Suits freshly grilled veggies, lamb,
mild sausage (from the grill) as well as a variety of cheeses, etc.
Eggplant Parmesan would certainly be a great match!
The 2005 Vintage yielded just 175 cases.
2006 Pinot Noir
The Nadeau Family Vintners 2006 Pinot Noir was grown on a small,
steeply sloped vineyard block west of Paso Robles in a cool site within
the "Dover Canyon watershed." The wine from the 100% Pinot Noir grapes
is surprisingly dark with a pleasant fruitiness and a slight earthiness
which aficionados expect from high-quality Pinot Noir. Layers of fruit
mingle with well-integrated oak, making this a wonderful wine to
accompany cheeses and reasonably robust fare.
The 2006 Vintage yielded only 8 Barrels (almost 200 cases.)
2006 Zinfandel
"The Bouncer"
The Nadeau Family Vintners? 2006 "Bouncer" Zinfandel is another big,
blockbuster Zin. A boorish brute of a Zin, this wine is a blend of the
Zins from the West side of the Paso Robles appellation.
This brash 100% Zinfandel is bound to appeal to those wine enthusiasts
who enjoy our BIG Zins like the "Home Ranch" and the "Critical Mass."
Big fruit aromas and flavors framed with just a subtle hint of American
Oak make this one a very interesting wine. Don?t forget that these
big, fruity Zinfandel wines generally don?t age very gracefully, so
please be conservative in cellaring these over-the-top Zins?a year?or
two at the most. Frankly, this wine will likely "peak" in about 12
months and begin "fading" in perhaps 18 months, so cellar accordingly.
Remember: "Drink Up - We?re making more!!!"
The 2006 Vintage yielded only 156 cases.
2006 Zinfandel
"Critical Mass"
The Nadeau Family Vintners? 2006 Critical Mass Zinfandel is another
big Nadeau 100% Zinfandel brimming with raspberry and chocolate aromas.
A wonderful crushed black pepper aroma complements the abundant
fruitiness as does the American and French oak used in the aging of
this wine. The pronounced cherry/raspberry aromas follow through to the
palate where the taster enjoys fruity flavors framed with an abundance
of soft tannins and a slight oak nuance.
This is clearly another ?over the top? Zinfandel from a winery whose
motto is??If it?s worth doing, it?s worth over-doing.?
The 2006 Vintage yielded just 16 barrels.
2006 Zinfandel
Westside
Paso Robles
The Nadeau Family Vintners? 2006 ?Westside? Zinfandel is another
powerhouse Zinfandel. This dense, brash 100% Zinfandel is bound to
appeal to those wine enthusiasts who enjoy our BIG Zins like the ?Epic?
and the ?Critical Mass.? Big fruit aromas and flavors framed with just
a subtle hint of American Oak make this one of our best ever!
Like most of our Zins, this wine is ready to drink upon release, so further aging is unnecessary.
The 2006 Vintage yielded about 250 cases.
2005 Zinfandel
"Home Ranch"
The
Nadeau Family Vintners? 2005 ?Home Ranch? Zinfandel is another
substantial 100% Zinfandel from our home vineyard. Our Estate Zinfandel
vineyard is dry-farmed and head-pruned, and the wine reflects this.
While yields are very low using these farming techniques, the quality
is so high that it is certainly worth the greatly increased expense and
effort.
Loaded with blackberry jam and sweet
raspberry aromas and flavors, this wine is another rustic, full-bodied
Zinfandel from Nadeau Family Vintners.
The 2005 vintage yielded only 155
cases.
2007 Roussanne
Central Coast
The Nadeau Family Vintners' 2007 Roussanne Central Coast is an
interesting white wine. It is 100% Roussanne and is a great follow-up
vintage to the 5 previous Roussanne offerings which were so
spectacular. Roussanne is one of the more pronounceable Rhone varieties
and is the one which has become our very favorite white wine grape.
The 2007 Vintage yielded about 200 cases

2006 Viognier
The
Nadeau Family Vintners' 2006 Viognier is a lovely white wine. It is
100% Viognier and the descriptors are classic Viognier: floral, fruity,
and very approachable! Viognier is one of the less pronounceable
Rhone varieties but is one which has become a favorite 'alternative'
white wine for many American consumers who've grown bored with the
ubiquitous offerings of Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
This versatile wine is certain to complement just about any traditional
'white wine fare' from Vichyssoise to Fish
The 2006 Vintage yielded only 112 cases.
