Aromas of melon, honeysuckle, and orange blossoms have an underlying mineral essence inherent in our vineyard. Our Rhone white blend is co-harvested and co-fermented to make a balance blend. A crisp finish follows flavors of stone fruit and citrus. Our Coeur du Terroir wines, translated as ‘heart of the earth’, are the best expressions of our Rhone estate. Our 2006 Coeur du Terroir Blanc was fermented in a combination of stainless steel and neutral barrels. 217 cases produced.

We have been creating this blend from the beginning. However, this vintage marks our first Viognier-Roussanne from El Dorado. Honeysuckle, apricot, and acacia blossoms dominate the aromas as the Roussanne softens the mouthfeel, adds viscosity and a touch of mineral and spice. Barrel fermented and aged in neutral barrels for 9 months, this wine is rich and creamy. 270 cases produced.

This is the first of many vintages of fine estate Rhone blends at DGV. Aromas of cherries, herbes de Provence and toasted vanilla are complimented by the big fruit and textured mid pallet of the blend. When decanted, the Coeur Rouge expresses provincial and spicy characters and is framed by soft, well placed tannins. It was barrel aged for 18 months in a combination of new, 1yr & 2yr French Oak. 418 cases produced.
