Wine Shop Ernest Bohemian Series Eugenia Edaphos







Wine Shop

Ernest Vineyards specializes in site-specific wines. Each of our wines comprises grapes from one vineyard and one vineyard only. The result: wines that are pure expressions of the sites from which they came. We have our limited production and best of the barrel Bohemian Series, our single vineyard Burgundian varietals, our summery Eugenia Rosé, and our unique second label collection, Edaphos. Cheers to whatever bottling you choose! 

Ernest

For our Ernest labels, we use grapes from seven sites in all. Some sites are valley floor, some are on hillsides. Some face west, all are considered cold-climate. We work closely with growers and vineyard managers at each site to dial-in the farming to adhere to a style that maximizes flavor ripeness while keeping sugars down and acidity high. 

Henry David Vineyard Aligoté 2021  - Ernest Vineyards
$38.00   750mL

Henry David Vineyard Aligoté 2021
Bennett Valley

Starbright, canary-yellow tones on this vintage of Aligoté. The aromas are subtle and elegant, reminiscent of pears, and dried apples, and with an abundance of mineral notes. A faint touch of white flowers, in the form of lilies, and a carnation-like perfume. On the palate, the wine demonstrates a great level of restraint and freshness. The dried apple and pear notes are consistent throughout, with the acidity not far behind. A seamless wine with youthful energy and a vibrancy of flavors, which assure a delightful finish.



Fallenleaf Vineyard Chardonnay 2019  - Ernest Vineyards
$38.00   750mL

Fallenleaf Vineyard Chardonnay 2019
Sonoma Coast

A beautiful bright and pale yellow wine, clear with shades of vintage gold. On the nose, a hint of white flowers, pears and pink lady apples with clear mineral notes of river pebbles and cut granite. On the palate a refreshing expression of the grape: a fruit profile consistent with the aromas and a pleasant acidity. The juicy and youthful mid-palate does not take away from the refined natured of this vintage. The finish lingers on the palate with a clean and thirst-quenching profile.



Joyce Vineyard Chardonnay 2020  - Ernest Vineyards
$68.00   750mL

Joyce Vineyard Chardonnay 2020
Sonoma Coast

A pale-yellow, white gold hue chardonnay with powerful aromas. Notes of green apple, citrus cream, minerals, and a “coolness” of style. On the palate, the wine displays delicacy, but piercing acidity with sour green apples and Meyer lemon flavors. The minerality peaking through the mid-palate has the freshness of morning fog followed by delicate marks of wild herbs. This wine is delicious and vibrant now but it will definitely benefit from a bit of aging, which will just add to the complexity with more balance and nuance.



Cleary Freestone Ranch Pinot Noir 2019  - Ernest Vineyards
$58.00   750mL

Cleary Freestone Ranch Pinot Noir 2019

Garnet in color revealing focused red cherry, plums, wild bramble, and undisturbed forest floor on the nose. The cool growing season delivers supple tannins framing bright, natural acidity and a purity of fruit traced with ginger and nutmeg.



Grand Vent Vineyard Pinot Noir 2019  - Ernest Vineyards
$62.00   750mL

Grand Vent Vineyard Pinot Noir 2019
Petaluma Gap

A crimson color with intense purple hues. The aromas are reminiscent of black plums and dried roses. A leafy quality followed by other deeper red and black fruits, both fresh and dried. On the palate, a juiciness to the quality of the fruit, accompanied by spice, and herbal notes of wild sage and black peppercorn. The acidity is bright, highlighting the freshness of the fruit. The tannins frame it all without being over the top. The power of the wine comes from its concentration and complexity of flavors.



Estate Pinot Noir 2021  - Ernest Vineyards
$58.00   750mL

Estate Pinot Noir 2021
Sonoma Coast

A beautiful ruby color wine with light hints of pink. Aromatically it greets the nose with a burst of bing cherries and summer strawberries, followed by notes of red roses. On the palate, it delivers even more complexity with the fruit profile being wrapped in layers of silky tannins and marked acidity. There’s a bright aspect to the wine that at first, but soon after the mouthfeel goes broader. The winemaking highlights the fruit’s elegance and finesse by exercising restraint on the use of oak.



Bohemian Series

Beginning with the 2019 vintage, Ernest introduces The Bohemian Series to celebrate the outstanding moments in the cellar from a particular vineyard. The Series will always embrace fluidity, each vintage will hold its unique inspiration and the varied bottlings will reflect what rises to the height of exceptional while in barrel for the most elevated experience of the vineyard and vintage.

Bohemian Series H. Klopp Vineyard Chardonnay 2019

Starbright in color with notes of yellow apples, river stones, lemon curd and cream with a hint of warmth on the nose from very restrained oak. Sophisticated and complex on the palate with persistent acidity, velvety texture, and bright, refreshing, concentrated fruits and minerals.



Bohemian Series Cleary Freestone Ranch Pinot Noir 2019 Bohemian Series - Ernest Vineyards
$95.00   750mL

Bohemian Series Cleary Freestone Ranch Pinot Noir 2019

Deep garnet with a slight purple undertone, seductive notes of red plums, red cherries, ripe blackberries laced with red roses and mushrooms.

Bohemian Series Alder Springs Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2019 Bohemian Series - Ernest Vineyards
$125.00   750mL

Bohemian Series Alder Springs Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Dense and opaque with a deep purple color, it suggests a wine with a youthful expression of the varietal. Aromatically subtle with notes of blackberries, mountain pine, black plums, cedar and a touch of pepper. The palate is a balance of black fruits and structural elements, with medium acidity. The tannins are gripping but round and ripe in nature. This is a Cabernet made with a lot of restraint and with a clear focus on elegance.



Eugenia

We produce our seasonal Rosé under the Eugenia label, named after Erin's grandmother. Our current release, from the 2022 vintage, includes an old-world style Rosé of Pinot Noir, and the return of a fan-favorite, our Rosé of Cinsault from the Certified Green Bruella Ranch.

Eugenia Rosé of Pinot Noir 2022  - Ernest Vineyards
$24.00   750mL

Eugenia Rosé of Pinot Noir 2022
Sonoma Coast

The aromas of candied strawberries, freshly baked cherry pie, and red plum jam are immediately, but gently presented. A prime example of Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir by the cool nature of the shrub red fruit aromas (bramble) alongside damp coastal forest notes and early summer blackberries. On the palate, an abundance of complex textures and weightiness, which coats the palate with the juiciness of ripe berries and with mouthwatering acidity. It sits on the palate assertively and pleasantly for a significantly long finish.



Eugenia Rosé of Cinsault 2022  - Ernest Vineyards
$28.00   750mL

Eugenia Rosé of Cinsault 2022
Lodi

Brilliant pink-salmon color with stunning clarity and brightness. Aromatically a superbly charming wine with a great concentration of fresh red fruit aromas: unripe strawberries, pomegranate seeds, and fresh blackberries with underlying wet river pebbles. The palate is as gratifying with the addition of super-bright but gentle acidity and freshness. There are notes of summer watermelon and tart cherries with enough complexity to make this wine a companion to food.



Edaphos

In addition to Ernest and Eugenia, we own and operate a third label: Edaphos (pronounced ee-dah-fos). It means “base,” “ground,” and “soil” in Greek; we felt it was a good expression of our attitude behind this winemaking. We consider this part of our business to be our “laboratory,” the place where we make small-lot wines that incorporate new and exciting approaches to winemaking with different styles and off-beat grape varietals. Sometimes we also call it our “sandbox.” The Edaphos strategy enables us to explore, experiment, and apply some of the lessons we learn to wines we make under our other labels. It also allows us to produce different wines whenever we feel like making them.
2022 Picpoul Edaphos - Ernest Vineyards
$28.00   750mL

2022 Picpoul
Lodi

Lively aromas both floral and fruity – a mixture of apple blossom, acacia flower sprinkled with citric notes. Clean and refreshing with forward Meyer lemon zest and an overall impression of youthful energy and an almost cider-like delightful gratification.



2022 Malvasia Bianca Edaphos - Ernest Vineyards
$38.00   750mL

2022 Malvasia Bianca
Russian River Valley

The aromas are exuberantly floral and fruity: peaches, pear, honeysuckle and jasmine. On the palate it feels light and refreshing with a very low alcohol percentage, allowing the beautiful aromatic components to show up well integrated on the palate. The palate is more fleshed out than the previous vintage due to the foot treading. There’s also a delightful intersection with citrus and zest, ensuring a bright finish.



2021 Petite Arvine Edaphos - Ernest Vineyards
$42.00   750mL

2021 Petite Arvine
Mendocino County

The aromatics on this vintage are specific, evoking stone fruit and Alpine forest vibrancy. The palate follows with a fruit forward attack flowing through with both weight and verve. There are hints of minerals, melons, and pears. A palate ranging from honeydew, sour apples, sweet oranges, and herbs.



2021 Ossum Epiphanea Edaphos Light Red Table Wine - Ernest Vineyards
$32.00   750mL

2021 Ossum Epiphanea
Mendocino County

Lambrusco-like in color, this wine shows bright red fruit aromas with a hint of sun baked pebbles. It is light bodied, but demonstrates more complexity on the palate. There are some soft fruit tannins, married with savory notes of dried herbs and faint salinity. The mid-palate has notes of cassis and cola while the finish fades slowly leaving behind delightful candied cranberry and dried cherry flavors.



2021 Trousseau Edaphos - Ernest Vineyards
$38.00   750mL

2021 Trousseau
Mendocino County

Aromas of sour raspberries, bing cherries, ripe strawberries, and hints of apple cider. There is also a marked salinity mitigating the juiciness of the bright red fruits. Texturally, it is a light to medium wine with subtle, but dry tannins and marked acidity. The salinity is clear on the aromas as well as on the palate, making it the perfect food pairing wine.



2019 Grenache Edaphos - Ernest Vineyards
$38.00   750mL

2019 Grenache
Sonoma Valley

Dark purple color with blueish hues, slight opaque and greatly concentrated. The aromas are classic with an array of fruits, ranging from black cherries to black plums and ripe blackberries, and is followed by scents of dry earth and dried oregano. The palate has brighter fruits framed by some ripe but firm tannins. A good acidity permeates throughout with an assertive finish.



2020 Syrah Edaphos - Ernest Vineyards
$42.00   750mL

2020 Syrah
Anderson Valley

Appearance demonstrates the classic Syrah grape; dark purple with blueish hues - saturated and slightly opaque. Aromas are fruit-centric with blackberries, black plums, and cassis; followed by more mineral-driven notes of pencil lead, gravel, and damp soil, with a hint of tar. On the palate, medium tannins, toasty notes from used barrels, and a very focused minerality. A full-bodied wine, but with low alcohol and acidity brightening up the finish.
