Red Wines


Black and white drawing of the Macxy Winery from 1882

A drawing of the original Maxcy homestead, winery, and vineyards from 1882.

Father Serra Junipero planted the first red wine grapes in California in 1779.

Less than a century later in 1850,  Col. A.E. Maxcy planted vines on what is now part of Rancho Guejito and became one of the leading producers of wine in Southern California by the turn of the century. Though the original grapes are gone, our red wines pay hommage to the incredible history of California and the ranch.

The long-awaited return of our popular red blend! La Linterna showcases dried black cherry, poached strawberries, and a hint of fresh black plum fruits followed by a touch of balsamic.

Done in a more oxidative style, this Grenache features poached raspberry, dried fig, and prune-like fruits. A balsamic reduction, violets, and dried thyme create a complicated nose. The palate is assertive and grippy, making this a perfect pairing for marbled steak or charcuterie. The finish is long and bold. This is a terrific wine to age or open today.

A very bright rendition of Counoise, with delicate red fruits on the nose and palate, followed by tart and ripe red cherries, raspberry, and red currant. There is a bouquet of hibiscus and red carnation florals that leads into wet clay and turned earth met by herbaceous sage. The palate is soft and elegant and will be further elevated with a slight chill.

This is a beautiful example of a densely packed Mourvedre from a location with incredibly complex soil. A deep purple color, with pink and ruby reflections. Dark fruits, black plum, dates, blackberry compote and rich cassis are woven together, very complex fruits. Fresh lilac and dried red roses are present with herbs de Provence and gravel. The palate is loaded with fruit and finishes with a touch of vanilla and cedar. The wine really unfurls with a decant, a truly stunning Mourvedre. Limited Quantities*

A beautiful ruby color: on the nose, the glass is pretty and perfumed. Red fruits mingle with a medley of darker fruits. Dried cranberry, ripe black cherry, blackberries, and dried red plums are framed by aromatic red florals. Fresh ground pink peppercorn and subtle wet earth tones are more persistent on the palate than the nose. The wine finishes with a touch of barrel and spice. This wine has structure, and it can age or be enjoyed youthfully.

With a delicate nose and palate, this varietal also offers bold ripeness, as the most densely fruited expression of Terret Noir than all previous vintages. Rainier cherry, dried strawberry paste, pink rose, tarragon, anise, and orange glaze on the nose. The palate contrasts loamy earth and herbal tealeaf-like qualities with fruit and fresh, wild herbs. A crisp and dry finish, with a lingering ripe red cherry and candied fruit notes, followed by a reminder of brewed oolong tealeaf. The wine is incredible served with a chill.
