Women and Minority Driven
The inaugural 2019 vintage of The Flag offers powerful aromas of blackberry, coffee bean, and cocoa powder with supporting notes of fresh herbs, walnut, and lavender. On the palate, the wine provides a dense juicy core surrounded by silky, velvety tannins and shows flavors of currant and fennel, followed by a long, lingering impression of concentrated wild berries.

Winery Info
MEDLOCK AMES
Medlock Ames Winery was formed in 1998 by college best friends, Chris Medlock James and Ames Morison, who set out to produce award-winning wines from Bell Mountain Ranch. Their winemaking philosophy is for each wine in each vintage to be the ultimate expression of their land and of the year inwhich it is grown. The grapes they grow at Bell Mountain Vineyard are full of personality. They believe in reviving elegance in agriculture and strive to maintain a natural balance in their vineyard. Organic farming requires healthy, fertile soil and all of their farming practices revolve around that goal.
