Just Some of the Wines We Make

Boujy Noveaulo

Boujy Noveaulo

Boujy Noveaulo

*Off dry red from Norton

Our very first wine! In 1997, we were the first in the state to make this nouveau style wine using traditional whole cluster fermentation, first from Foch grapes, then from Nortons. Tart and fruity, this wine is released on November 17 each year.

Bésame

Boujy Noveaulo

Boujy Noveaulo

Off dry red from Norton

Intense flavor and substantial mouthfeel make this a good choice for pairing with richer foods. Be sure to kiss the chef!

Bluesman

Boujy Noveaulo

Chambourcin

Dry red from Norton

Bold, dark, smoky, full-bodied, aged-in-oak red that pairs well with steak and barbeque. As this wine rolls over your tongue, if you close your eyes you can almost smell the cigars and hear the blues playing.

Chambourcin

Charlotte's Red

Chambourcin

Dry red from Chambourcin

Dark fruit flavors with a hint of oak from this opulent, yet edgy wine will delight your palette. Lighter-bodied than a Merlot, Chambourcin is Davenport's wine for the Cabernet drinker.   

Charlemagne

Charlotte's Red

Charlotte's Red

Off dry, sweet red from Chambourcin

Named for the noisy rooster in "A Year in Provence," Charlemagne has a totally different taste with bright, citrus and berry  flavors. The off-dry is lively smooth, while the sweet version makes your tongue tingle with sweet delight.   

Charlotte's Red

Charlotte's Red

Charlotte's Red

Sweet red from Fredonia

Charlee's mom, who loved a good sweet red wine, inspired this classic, rich wine with cherry and strawberry flavors coming through. Cotton candy and bubble gum will take a back seat to Charlotte's Red to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Gewurztraminer

Gewurztraminer

Gewurztraminer

Sweet white from Gewurztraminer

Tropical fruit and melon flavors star in this lively crisp, white wine that pairs perfectly with your Thanksgiving turkey. The label may feature a greenie-meanie monster but this wine will make fast, forever friends with your palette

Jazzman

Gewurztraminer

Gewurztraminer

*Dry red from St. Vincent

This wine sleeps in American oak barrels for up to 3 years, imparting that lovely hint of vanilla and slightly dry mouthfeel.  Jammy ripe cherry notes won't overpower whatever you choose to serve with it. 

Ludmilla

Gewurztraminer

Ludmilla

*Dry, off dry, sweet white from Vidal Blanc

Aromas of pineapple and a citrus acidity make this wine a natural companion for seafood, cheese, or fruit.  The dry version has slept in American oak, but like Ludmila, has awakened.  The label references the Russian opera Ruslan and Ludmila by Mikhail Glinka and tells the story of a princess, an evil wizard, and a brave knight.  

Mandolin

Mary's Blush

Ludmilla

*Off dry, sweet red from St. Vincent

With fruitiness reminiscent of cherry and color to match, this wine hits all the right notes!  Pick it to pair with chicken or pork, or serve it as a great after dinner relaxer.

Mary's Blush

Mary's Blush

Mary's Blush

*Off dry, sweet blush from Norton

This is no wimpy pink blush-- Norton grapes give up their intense color to make a garnet hued wine in two sweetness levels. Named for Greg's Grandma, Mary Davenport.

Matrot

Mary's Blush

Mary's Blush

*Dry red from Norton

Lots of oak tannins and an earthy character will stand up to very rich dishes.  Named for the Matrot Castle in Topeka, built by Seraphin Matrot in 1883.  

Melody

Niagara

Niagara

*Sweet white from Melody

Lower in alcohol and with delicate floral notes, this is a perfect foil for cheese and crackers.  It'll have you singing for more!


Niagara

Niagara

Niagara

*Sweet white from Niagara

If you've had white grape juice, you'll recognize this one immediately.   Evoking tropical fruit and an almost Riesling quality, it's not over the edge at all.

Norton

Niagara

Norton

Dry red from Norton

Ruslan

Sailor's Delight

Norton

*Dry red from Norton

Oaky and bold, dark and broody, this heroic wine goes well with steaks, spicy foods, and dark chocolate.  The label references the Russian opera Ruslan and Ludmila by Mikhail Glinka and tells the story of a princess, an evil wizard, and a brave knight. 

Sailor's Delight

Sailor's Delight

Sailor's Delight

*Off dry, sweet blush from Chambourcin

Greg's Navy experience prompted this label, and we do enjoy pretty sunsets.  Lighter than Mary's Blush, but just as flavorful, you can enjoy this wine with pasta or cheese.

Seyval Blanc

Sailor's Delight

Sailor's Delight

Dry, off dry white from Seyval Blanc

Tart, grapefruity, lower alcohol. Good acidity to balance richer dishes; works well with cheese and crackers, too. Riesling fans will like this one.

Traminette

137th Infantry

137th Infantry

*Dry, off dry, sweet white from Traminette

We loved the greenie-meanie label so much, we reused it for this fruity Gewurtztraminer hybrid.  With citrus notes and a bright finish, it pairs well with pork, chicken, and even fish.

137th Infantry

137th Infantry

137th Infantry

*Dry, off dry, sweet white from Vignoles

Of unknown parentage, Vignoles nevertheless leaves no doubt about its ripe tropical flavors and hints of Riesling aroma.  Pairs with just about anything.  The label honors the long Kansas history of the 137th Infantry.

24th Marines

137th Infantry

Apollo 13 40th Anniversary

*Sweet white from Niagara/Vignoles blend

Niagara and Vignoles make a very aromatic wine.  WIth notes of apricot and citrus, it's bold enough to highlight spicy dishes and rich desserts.  The label honors the 24th Marines who erected the flag at Iwo Jima.

Apollo 13 40th Anniversary

Dodge City High School 1964

Apollo 13 40th Anniversary

*Special bottlings

This is a special occasion label used with one of our white wines to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the amazing Apollo 13 mission of April 1970.  On April 17, 2010, the Kansas Cosmosphere & Space Center in Hutchinson hosted the crew and mission control heroes of Apollo 13 to celebrate "NASA's finest hour."

*Special bottlings

This label commemorates the 55th anniversary of Greg's DCHS Senior class trip to Lake Meade in 1964.  Sanctioned by the school, teachers and students all had a great outing.  The car is depicted in better shape than it probably was-- it was a cold chisel convertible conversion of a junk yard car!

Olde Squidde

Dodge City High School 1964

Dodge City High School 1964

*Sweet fortified red from Norton

Enjoy this port style wine with some dark chocolate and a log fire!  It's a wonderful way to finish up a special day with that special someone.

Apple

Jeżyna

Jeżyna

*Sweet white from local apples

You know the saying "I like cooking with wine, sometimes I even put it in the food?"  Well, this apple blend is always a perfect companion for BBQ or pork regardless of  where it winds up!  

Jeżyna

*Sweet red from local blackberries

Hard to pronounce, easy to drink, we tried making wine from our own blackberries and were very pleased.  Enjoy it after dinner or with dessert, and don't worry about how to say "blackerry" in Polish.

Peche

Jeżyna

Peche Black Label

*Sweet white from local peaches

Our original peach wine, lovely alone or as a reduction over vanilla ice cream.  Just be careful where you put the accent mark or you may be surprised.

Peche Black Label

Peche Black Label

*Sweet dessert white from Douglas County peaches

AKA "nitro" or "hi octane" peach, prepare to have titillated taste buds when you enjoy a small après meal glass.

Rhubarb

Peche Black Label

Rhubarb

*Sweet white from rhubarb

Yes, it really tastes like rhubarb.  We first tasted rhubarb wine in the Amana Colonies, where it's known as Piestengel.  Ours is sweet, and best served in a small glass, slightly chilled.
