After-dinner sherry with essences of natural hazelnut
Amber tones glow from the glass. A warm, nutty aroma fills the air. This is DUET, a classic after-dinner wine with a hint of natural hazelnut.
Hand-selected after-dinner sherries produced in the Cucamunga Valley of California are brought to our winery in Sonoma County for final blending with an addition of natural hazelnut essence.
| Grape Components: |
The workhorse of our Sherry program is the Golden Chassla (Palamino). We also use Mission, a varietal that came from Spain when the Jesuits and later the Franciscans came to California. Rose of Peru, a grape that closely resembles the Mission grape is another wonderful component of our sherry. |

Winemaking Comments
DUET is a one-of-a-kind after-dinner wine.
It has a wonderful nutty aroma. It is nicely balanced and exceptionally smooth. The natural hazelnut finish completes the experience.
DUET is our most dessert-friendly after-dinner wine. The rich, nutty character works as a dessert, with dessert, or served with chilled ginger ale and a wedge of lemon, a refreshing cocktail!
