It's Our 30th Anniversary!


May 1, 1997, marks the 30th Anniversary of the DUKE OF BOURBON®! We are extremely proud and gratified to be celebrating this momentous occasion! It has been an exciting and rewarding venture as our small family business has evolved in the immensely diverse and dynamic world of wine. We are exceedingly thankful to all of the people and entities who were an integral part in our dedication to quality, style tradition, education and enjoyment of fine wines.

In honor of our 30th Anniversary, we are delighted to announce the debut of five exciting wines created exclusively for the DUKE OF BOURBON® by five of California's finest wineries:

Duckhorn 1994 Merlot,
Duke's 30th Anniversary Cuvee
Introductory Price $32.50

What a wine! Produced at America's finest Merlot winery from Napa Valley's greatest vintage in 20 years, this wine has everything desired in a great Pomerol or Napa Valley Merlot. It is rich and deep with truly varietal flavors. We met with Winemaker Tom Rinaldi and proprietors Dan and Margaret Duckhorn to select this blend of exceptional character...rich fruit, bold tannin, supple body, memorable after-taste, and long ageability.

Ici/La-Bas 1995
Oregon Pinot Noir,
Duke's 30th Anniversary Singular Bottling
Introductory Price $30.00

Without a doubt, this is the finest Ici/La-Bas produced to date. As an experiment that really worked, Jim Clendenen made this entire cuvee in 100% toasted-head barrels created especially for him at the Francois Freres barrel works in St. Romain, France. "Beautiful and brilliant" describes the color; "round and flavorful" describes the taste. Knowing the quality of Clendenen Pinot Noirs, you can bet that this beauty will age for many, many years.

Long Vineyards 1995 Chardonnay,
Duke's 30th Anniversary Special Selection
Introductory Price $37.50

Pull the cork and this deep golden Chardonnay fills the room with lovely full aromas. Bob Long and associate winemaker Sandi Belcher made this gem from grapes selected from their 30-year-old "old vines" vineyard! Loaded with the rich flavors of fruit, Francois Freres oak and malolactic fermentation, the wine has a perfect fruit/acid balance and is reminiscent of a great Meursault. Elegant and powerful, it is made to enjoy this year or age gracefully into the new millennium. Packed in a classy new bottle...absolutely stunning!

Louis M. Martini 1994 Cabernet Sauvignon,
Duke's 30th Anniversary Cuvee
Introductory Price $14.00

This wine is so good! From the already famous 1994 vintage, Michael Martini has crafted a truly delicious Cabernet Sauvignon. Like Mike's past creations for the DUKE, it promises to drink beautifully when young and live for decades of future enjoyment. We joined Mike in his lab to select this special blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot from grapes grown on the famed Monte Rosso, Hayne and Glen Oaks Vineyards. Don't let the reasonable price mislead you...this wine is so good!

Schramsberg 1988 Blanc de Blancs LD,
Duke's 30th Anniversary Cuvee
Introductory Price $28.50

A wonderful sparkling wine!! We joined winemakers Mike Reynolds and Hugh Davies to select the dosage for our own distinctive version of Schramsberg's 1988 Blanc de Blancs L.D. The winery's high standards are reflected in this world-class Champagne produced from premium Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc grapes. After going through the traditional winemaking process, each bottle was aged for over eight years! We know you will enjoy the flavors of this elegant Champagne as you celebrate many occasions, including the DUKE's 30th. We toast you and you can toast us!

Mayacamas Makes Wine that Lasts!

For years, Mayacamas Vineyards has produced classic Chardonnays in their own distinctive style. We have offered 24 different vintages and are very excited about their 1994 version. Chris Travers, son of proprietors Bob and Nonie, recently took the pen from his Dad to share his thoughts in their newsletter:
Buy any combination of 6 or more bottles of
Mayacamas wines and get the 6 or more bottle price!
