Batch 3 of CT’s Cut Brandy has been bottled and will be released later this summer. Batch 3 is a blend of two barrels. One aged for 3.5 years in a Bourbon barrel and the other aged for 2.5 year in a wheat whiskey barrel, both from Hinterhaus in Arnold, CA. It shows lots of grape qualities on the front palate with a mid-palate and finish offering wonderful notes of maple syrup and caramel. 88 proof and incredibly smooth. Currently we think it is best enjoyed with a single large ice cube in a rocks glass, or, as a Brandy Old Fashioned or Brandy Manhattan. Specific recipes to follow as we perfect them. Cheers!

Upcoming events to put on your calendar:

-July 4th Weekend in Murphys is always wonderful. Plan your visit and include a stop at our many shops, restaurants and winery tasting rooms. Also remember to mix-in some time at our Community Park as it an awesome place for picnicking and a dip in the creek.

-Boyle MacDonald will be hosting a reception for local friend and artist Mike Nelson Saturday, July 19 beginning at 5:30pm. His work will remain in the tasting through August 10. Please come on up to support and appreciate Mr. Nelson’s beautiful art.

-And of course, begin every weekend with us as we host Friday night music year round on the Rooftop, or inside the tasting room during poor weather, from 6-8pm. Check to see who is playing HERE
