A Hi-Rollr is Boontling for folks who live in the hills surrounding Yorkville at the southern end of the Anderson Valley in Mendocino County. Boontling was a local language used by the nearly 5,000 residents in the area surrounding Boonville, California between 1880 and about 1932.

 

 

This bottle, named after Yorkville’s wine club, is a splendid Bordeaux-style blend. Ripe cherry, lush boysenberry, black currants, and notes of chocolate are abundant on the nose and on the palate. A round and elegant wine that still has good structure and the potential to age well. Pair a bottle with a juicy steak and a lightly seared cut of tuna and enjoy.
