Say "cheers!" with this sparkling gift box of Champagne-inspired candies packaged in a shimmery gold foil Candy Bento Box®. Bottled for the first time with a twist-off cap to protect the integrity of its aromas, it is now easier than ever to enjoy this wine with a roasted tomato and goat cheese tart. This is Frog's Leap Sauvignon Blanc in all its glory. This Sauvignon Blanc is lovely, with stone fruit, crisp green apple, and wonderfully bright mineral flavors. As the work progresses at Galleron, you'll note that the wine carries the Napa Valley appellation.
#FROGS LEAP UPDATE#
As we replant and update Galleron, we've reached out to some of the growers who helped build the reputation of Frog's Leap Sauvignon Blanc in the early days, and have started to source fruit from them again. Fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks to preserve the purity and distinctiveness of this noble grape.Īfter nearly three decades of providing fantastic grapes, our Galleron vineyard in Rutherford-a major source of our Sauvignon Blanc grapes-is showing signs of wear and tear, and is ready for a refresh.
Look for their new offering of Late-Harvest Riesling.Stone fruit and white flower aromatics are perfectly complemented with crisp, minerally flavors. Also produced is Chardonnay, a Riesling Chardonnay blend, Rose, Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Merlot and a little Syrah. The results are real, and are supported by the increasing popularity of these methods by leading growers - and by the product in the bottle.įrog’s Leap flagship wine is their Rutherford Sauvignon Blanc, made in a food-friendly style that complements but doesn’t overwhelm. Planting, pruning and harvesting are also directed with the help of the Earth’s natural cycles. These practices also encourage beneficial insects, eliminating the need for herbicides and synthetic fertilizers.
By using cover crops and compost, healthy soils are created, producing complex microbial nutrients that contribute to the vines’ health and fruit quality. Believing that a grapevine should be grown in healthy soil that supports all the nutrient needs of the plant, Frogs Leap has been farming organically since. Wine Tasting Notes The Sauvignon Blanc is distinctly Frogs Leap with flavors of citrus peel and hints of stone fruit all underscored by bright minerality. The 130-acre parcel is devoted to sustainable agricultural practices, using biodynamic methods that go beyond mere organic farming. It was built with reclaimed lumber, painted with low-toxin paint, and uses solar and geothermal power. The house itself is a destination as an example of environmental energy design. Please call ahead, as we may have to adjust our schedule due to unforeseen circumstances.
We strive to always offer the freshest, local ingredients available to us while maintaining a fun, diverse menu that will keep you coming back.
It has the feel of a country bed & breakfast, with an open floor plan and lots of windows, comfortable chairs and a wrap-around veranda. The FLPH menu changes often, sometimes a lot and sometimes a little. The Vineyard House Hospitality Center is just north of the barn and houses the offices, kitchen, reception and tasting areas of the winery. Sometimes wine in California is TOO big and TOO alcoholic, losing quality for quantity, and overly fruit-forward for the region. There may even be a sampling of organically grown vegetables, fresh from their gardens, for visitors to enjoy. Visitors are encouraged to wander the extensive grounds and gardens. The barn was the site of the Adamson Winery, originally built in 1884, and then refurbished 110 years later to become the home of Frog’s Leap Winery. A leaping frog sculpture sits atop the large, red-barn-inspired winery building in Rutherford near the center of Napa Valley.
