Route 116 Chardonnay

Hand harvested by Alex Bowman himself from an organic vineyard in the heart of the Russian River Valley. Barrel aged on Neutral French and American Oak. 100% ML.

Route 116 Pinot Noir

A unique blend of clones leads to this delicate, yet robust Pinot Noir. Grown in the heart of the Russian River Valley, these berries beat the late summer heat and were picked under ideal, cool conditions.

“Lithe and spicy, with notes of dried savory herb to the white fruit and citrus flavors. Buttery accents show on the finish, with chamomile details. Drink now through 2021.” -KM

Route 116 Cabernet Sauvignon

Our Route 116 Cabernet Sauvignon is a blend of fruit from our neighbors ranch in the Sierra Foothills along with fruit from Alexander Valley. The elevation and heat in the foothills leads to a balanced, friendy, fruit forward Cab. Low tannins and ripe dark fruit.

Route 116 Blanc de Noirs

Our Route 116 Blanc de Noirs is a fan favorite. Delicate bubbles, complex aromas, notes of fresh strawberries and a beautiful coral color. Perfect for summertime and perfect for celebrating the good in life.
