Our Philosophy
Markus and Liz Bokisch are dedicated to producing hand-crafted Spanish varietal wines with a distinctive California style while exhibiting the true character of the grape. Their goal is to have Spanish varieties such as Albariño, Graciano, Tempranillo and Garnacha roll off the wine lover's tongue just as easily as other Spanish words embedded in our culture. All of their grapes are estate grown and farmed with a conscientious outlook toward sustainability and organics.

2006 Garnacha 

Our Garnacha is reminiscent of the dense, spicy, Spanish red wines produced from this variety in its area of origin – Aragon . Due to minimal irrigation and severe pruning, its smaller berries and higher skin-to-juice ratio give it a deep color showing bright red hues with a tinge of blue. Subtle notes of pomegranate and cassis reveal themselves along with a slightly floral quality in the nose. Complex layers of strawberry and bright fruit combine in the palate for a delicious, lengthy finish. A medium-bodied wine, this Garnacha shows excellent balance, fresh acidity and bright flavors.  

APPELLATION:

Clements Hills, Lodi

COMPOSITION: 97% Garnacha (Grenache), 3% Tempranillo

7 months in new & neutral French Oak
