Our mission at Dynamis Estate Wines is to achieve premium-quality without compromise. This philosophy drives every decision we make—from vineyard to winery to tasting lodge and everywhere in between. We hand-harvest fruit during the cool cover of darkness and pick grapes into small harvest bins to maintain fruit integrity. Careful cluster and berry sorting ensure fruit quality. Gentle destemming and fruit movement in our fermentation tanks, with an elegant selection of glassware and closures, creates a memorable tasting experience that leaves you wanting more. We handcraft our wines in small lots with the pinnacle of quality in mind and monitor every drop with surgical precision creating a time capsule in a bottle to enjoy for years to come, one vintage after another.

2020 Sauvignon Blanc
$35/750ml
Tasting notes:
Well-drained rocky soil below these vines and a gentle winemaking approach offers a true concentration of varietal expression. This wine presents aromatics of tea olive, apricot, and peach. The palate opens with creamy lemon curd and transitions to fresh honeydew melon and stone fruit, finishing crisp and clean.
Fermentation and processing:
Whole cluster pressed, and cold settled in stainless steel for two days. Upon reaching 35 degrees, the juice is moved to concrete cast stone. Cast stone preserves the unique terroir, aromas, and flavor profile we want to showcase in our Sauvignon Blanc.

2019 Cabernet Sauvignon
$100/750ml
Tasting notes:
Our single varietal Cabernet Sauvignon showcases the boldness of the mountain where it is grown and is a true expression of our site. The deep ruby red color, velvety structure, and ripe flavor profile are elegant and palate-friendly. Powerful aromas and flavors of vanilla bean, black currant, cedar, spearmint, and a hint of clove carry across the palate from start to finish.
Fermentation and processing:
Grapes, harvested late into the season and picked at almost freezing temperature, ensure fruit entered the cellar cool and ripe. The wine was pumped over twice daily for two to three weeks during fermentation in 40hL oak vats. Oak fermentation provides oxygen for the yeast to promote a healthy fermentation and helps early integration of oak tannins to round out the mouthfeel. To express the varietal character of our Cabernet Sauvignon, we chose to use 100% free-run wine.
Food pairing:
Bleu Cheese, portobello mushrooms, dry-aged ribeye, steak au poivre.
