Elyse Winery Wine Tasting Wines with a Sense of Place
Every aspect of the vineyard-soil, elevation, slope, weather, and the farming practices imbues finished wines with character.
Wine Flight
Sonoma County Chardonnay 2020
Our 2020 Chardonnay has a core of ripe pear wrapped in smooth marzipan cream. A lush mid-palate of peach and dried lemon are kept in focus by a vein of minerality. Flamboyant yet refined, this wine's natural acidity carries these flavors, leaving you begging for another taste.
Morisoli Vineyard Zinfandel 2019
The cornerstone of the Elyse portfolio, the deep fruit and intensity of this site shine through yet again. Aromas of dark plum and baked cranberries draw you into the glass. Lively acidity carries the weight of this Zinfandel seamlessly across the palate with vibrant flavors of Bing cherry and roasted strawberry intermixed with cinnamon, clove, and vanilla bean. The purity of this wine is a direct reflection of this historic vineyard site.
Holbrook Mitchell Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
Truly a classic, single-vineyard Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Broad shouldered and strapping, this Cabernet from the Holbrook Mitchell Vineyard at the end of our lane is synonymous with power. Full bodied with earthen blackberry, plum, and bakers' chocolate notes balanced with a splash of dusty, dried rose petal for panache! Firm, grippy tannins with a hint of leather indulges your sense for just "one more" sip.

About the Winery
Located in Yountville, CA Wines with a Sense of Place. From what started with a handful of barrels made from a dear friend's vineyard in 1987, Elyse Winery has been the waypoint for countless wine lovers to experience California wines and fall in love with wines and vineyards of all regions and acclaim. After thirty years of stewardship, Ray and Nancy decided that it was time to retire. What began as a casual conversation over dinner evolved into the next chapter for Elyse Winery. In October 2018, Ray and Nancy Coursen sold Elyse Winery to fellow Yountville locals, Josh Peeples, and his partner, Cheryl Foil. Perfect timing for both parties, the torch has been passed to continue the same passion for the decades to come.
