Terrosa is a Spanish word for “earthy” or “chalky”, making it a perfect name for a wine that showcases where our estate vines are grown: the Snake River Valley AVA, which encompasses the ancient Lake Idaho shoreline with its distinctive Feltham series soil (loamy fine sand).

Terrosa is a premium blend of our estate Petit Verdot and Syrah, handharvested from the low-yield vines that reliably deliver rich, concentrated fruit, producing age-worthy wines of great complexity. Aromas of dark fruit and spice; intense flavors saturate the palate with jammy blackberry, toasted oak, and black pepper. The namesake “terrosa” is further reflected in the earthy and concentrated finish.

Terrosa is a Spanish word for “earthy” or “chalky”, making it a perfect name for a wine that showcases where our estate vines are grown: the Snake River Valley AVA, which encompasses the ancient Lake Idaho shoreline with its distinctive Feltham series soil (loamy fine sand).

Our Terrosa is a premium blend of estate-grown Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot, with a touch of Cabernet Franc from our neighboring vineyard, K.P. Martin, which directly borders our estate vineyard. The grapes were hand-harvested at just two tons, allowing us to focus on exceptional quality and concentration. Bold and full-bodied, with layers of blackberry, cassis, and dark plum, complemented by mint, blueberry, and toasted oak. Its complexity carries through a long, smooth finish accented by toasted caramel.

30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 25% Petit Verdot, 25% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc

The bitter winter of 2017 was devastating to Idaho vineyards, leading to greatly reduced harvests. This Terrosa is the only red wine we produced from that vintage. The silver lining for wine lovers is the lower yields produced fruit with intenselyconcentrated flavor and complexity. Delicious now, those patient enough to lay down a few bottles will be amply rewarded.

Beautiful aromas of lilac and pipe tobacco. Juicy and full on the palate with wild blackberries, black currant, dark chocolate, and dried herbs. Well-balanced with some fun verve carrying through to the rich finish tasting each distinct varietal.

Lightly oaked and refreshingly crisp, this wine opens with flavors of golden apple, vanilla, and toasted caramel. The palate leads to a lingering finish with hints of pineapple and a touch of balanced acidity, offering both elegance and complexity.

Pairs beautifully with grilled seafood, roast chicken, or creamy pasta dishes. Also a delicious match with soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert and light, citrusy salads with vinaigrette. The wine’s balanced acidity and subtle oak complement rich textures while refreshing the palate.
