This retrospective tasting features aged gems alongside our current release wines in a private and intimate setting. While personally guided by Tamber Bey’s Director of Hospitality, you will experience a deep dive into our winery operations. Before the tasting, enjoy a walking tour of the production spaces (wine in hand) and meet a few of the horses that make their home at Sundance Ranch.

Experience Highlights

Retrospective Tasting

Taste

Select library wines are tasted side by side with their current-release counterparts.

Tertiary aromas in wine refer to the bouquet of smells that wine aging creates. During the aging process, the aromas that the fermentation process has produced develop further or even change with time in the bottle.
