SOLD OUT
In 1936, Simone Shaw, daughter of an Alaskan miner and Belgian aristocrat, purchased a property in Amador County hoping to find gold. She called it “Casino Mine Ranch” because she knew it would be a gamble to find any gold. Today, more than 80 years later, Simone’s great nephews Jim and Richard Merryman look after the property, which includes a vineyard of an unusual array of grapes. The legendary Andy Erickson and winemaker Jessica Tarpy Shaheen make the wines and a new history is being written for Casino Mine Ranch.
Pale lemon hue flecked with gold, aromas of Acacia, wet gravel, and stone fruits; this wine is rich, yet focused with balanced acidity and layers of yellow apples, citrus and anise on the palate. Whole-cluster pressed, fermented in neutral French oak with extended batonnage and aged for fourteen months.
