2019 CLUB 9 Red
Bootjack & Jespersen
This wine was included in our special offers for Wine Club Week 2025 which happened at the winery last week. We're now releasing a small amount digitally for members who weren't able to join us in person! These wines were all selected by our winemakers during their annual library tasting and are exceptional expressions of our estate vineyards that have aged beautifully. They are ready to enjoy within the next year.
This wine is named after our original Wine Club, from the early 2000s. To make this wine, we bring staff members together for a friendly blending competition. Our Winemakers select an array of varietals to choose from and each team member composes a blend. Then, everyone blind tastes each of the blends and votes for their favorite. In 2019, our Critical Resources Manager, Craig Macmillan, composed the winning blend. This is a rare wine for us as it combines fruit from both Bootjack Ranch and Jespersen Ranch. We generally keep the two separate to highlight the unique qualities of each site but this wine proves that the two also complement each other well.
