EXCELLENCE IN THE MAKING

Today’s world is a complicated one. At Echelon Vineyards, we’re working to make at least one part simpler – your wine selection. We’ve taken a trusted brand and revitalized it – inside and out. Celebrating a new look and a new selection of your favorite varietals, we are excited about the Fall 2011 debut of our new Echelon California Series: Pinot Grigio, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Red Blend and Cabernet Sauvignon.

Echelon is a compilation of the finest that California has to offer. We combine the best of several wine regions and layer flavors, oak and complexity into exceptional blends. Sourcing grapes from an array of renowned winegrowing regions throughout California allows us to deliver high-quality, fruit-intense wines vintage after vintage.

It also provides our winemaker the opportunity to identify special wine lots that display an extraordinary combination of authentic varietal expression and distinctive, appellation-specific nuances. After harvest, we set these special barrels aside and bottle them within a new “tier” of Echelon – The Collection Series. The Collection Series program launches in the same Fall 2011 time period. The 2010 vintage includes a Russian River Valley Pinot Noir, Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and Napa Valley Chardonnay.

So you can see, we are marking some fairly significant milestones at Echelon Vineyards. That said, we believe that you should celebrate even the smallest of accomplishments. From assembling the first home-cooked meal of the week to reviving the vegetable garden – a toast is in order.

Echelon. You’re Entitled.
