Corbeau Rusé translates as ‘Mischievous Crow,’ paying homage to the origination of our winery’s name: “Dancing Crow Vineyards.” It twas the dance-like frolicking of a murder of crows, while mischievously thieving dozens of straw vine markers during the initial planting of our vineyard, that gave our wines their name. This Rhone-style red blend honors our playful origins and affection for French wines.
This genuinely unique offering is an Old World-style "Field Blend" from 120-year-old vines, comprised of over 24 California heritage grape varieties, which are co-fermented to create this rare wine. The Old Stake 1901 shows generous ripe plum and cranberry flavors, with a hint of dried clove and lavender on the finish. "It's like drinking history."
