We have just contacted our nationwide allocation list of clients announcing the Fall release of our wines.  The 2019 Chardonnay is spectacular right now.  Rosemary is happy again to be enjoying our own wine…the previous vintage sold out many months ago. For our Red, we have reserved and set aside a portion of our 2016 […]

The bad news:  we have no more Chardonnay to drink (Rosemary is very sad) and no more to sell.  Since our launch of Silverpoint Cellars in 2008, we store all our bottled wines at a professional storage facility in Sonoma.  I’ve contacted them several times over the last 2 months saying “is there any of […]

Since mid August of this year, fires have continued to burn across California and on to Oregon and Washington.  The smoke has extended from Vancouver to San Diego. The Wine Country in Northern California has been singed by flames and choked with smoke.  Here at Silverpoint Cellars, we’ve seen two primary effects on our wine […]

Our Chardonnay grapes were harvested today in the cool pre-dawn hours.  Looking very good.   Wine from these grapes will be released in precisely 24 months.  Check them out in the attached  videos taken as they arrived at the winery to begin their journey to the bottle.   D305D95E-6821-4518-B103-680A971CE723 7461C098-960A-4895-ADEB-796A81FFFE55

This week, we completed the most fun wine event of each calendar year for Silverpoint Cellars.  We met with our winemaker to test barrel samples of our Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlo, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot to determine the final formula for our 2018 Napa Valley Red Wine.  We taste each sample and then taste different […]

In this crazy period we are all enduring, grapes are still growing and wine is still being made.  Last week, we bottled our 2016 Napa Valley Red Wine.  I grabbed the first bottle as it came down the line and tasted it with Rosemary later that evening.  Wow!  Wine Spectator has rated the overall 2016 […]

Today in the pre dawn hours, our Chardonnay grapes were harvested at Rodgers Creek Vineyard (Petaluma Gap – Sonoma County) and delivered to our winemaking facility. These Wente clone grapes arrived looking good and very ready to begin their move towards delicious wine.   Pic below.  

Yesterday, Rosemary and I visited our grapes growing at the Antinori Family Estate (Antica) in Napa Valley.  This is our source of Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot which we blend with Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon to create our proprietary blend, Silverpoint Cellars Napa Valley Red Wine. Perfect weather so far this growing season.  Grapes are […]

The 2019 harvest is drawing near.  The weather this summer has been near ideal with late August temperatures in the 90’s pushing the gradual maturation of the grapes.  So far, we’ve had no freezes, no rains, no hail, no storms and no fires.  Crossing our fingers 🤞 that this pattern holds for the next 45 […]
