We will produce only small quantities of luxurious red wines that express their sense of place. Blue Rock, therefore, will always make wine from grapes grown exclusively on the Estate.
We believe that small is beautiful. In our experience, the finest, most individually expressive wines come from small places.
We believe that place is paramount, "...a memorable wine is as much a map as a taste. A place where man and plant and planet meet. A kind of liquid geography..." Blue Rock will always come from the blue rocks, pebbles and boulders that make this hillside property so unique and special. | Tiburon, CA

2004 Cabernet Sauvignon
Alexander Valley
This wine certainly ranks among the most powerful, rich and balanced Cabernets that we have made. It is both elegant and solidly proportioned. This very aromatic and beautiful wine ... more calls upon aromas of black currant, lead pencil, coco, and well-integrated vanilla notes. It is rich and silky, with sweet ripe tannins and a solid core that begs for some bottle age.
The flavors are consistent with the nose having deep red and black fruit flavors, well-integrated oak, great balance and refinement. There is a fine persistence of flavor that is long lasting. It is delicious now but will gain complexity and finesse with time. Expected maturity 2008 through 2015.

2004 Syrah
Alexander Valley
Our fourth vintage of Syrah is our most elegant ever! This wine emphasizes grace and complexity rather than heavy extraction. It is beautifully balanced with fine tannins and a gre ... moreat sense of polish. It has wonderful Syrah character and is more Northern Rhone in style with smoked meat, pomegranate, and black currant aromas; The flavors are consistent with the nose with complex black cherry as well as gamy/earthy flavors. Due to the soft tannins it can be enjoyed upon release but will improve for another 5 years.
