JuiceFulkerson Wines
From classics like Riesling and Merlot to unique varietals such as Dornfelder and Albarino, the Fulkerson Wines family has something to please every palate.
Bourbon Barrel Syrah
Syrah has a great tannin structure that is complimented by the smooth bourbon character that the Heaven Hill barrels gave during the months of aging. We believe that this style of Syrah is one of the most casually drinking reds we offer, and is a great wine to enjoy after work or with a meal. Salut!

Lemberger (Blaufrankisch)
Lemberger is officially classified under the name “Blauer Limberger,” this red grape variety also goes by the synonyms “Lemberger” and “Blaufränkisch.” The late-ripening Lemberger probably originated in vineyards on the lower stretches of the Danube River. The grape was documented in Austria in the second half of the 18th century and is cultivated there to this day (as Blaufränkisch) in Burgenland and near Vienna.
This wine has a brilliant color, is full bodied fruit and aroma, and has been aged in oak for 6 months.

Merlot
The Merlot grape is a close cousin to Cabernet Sauvignon in many respects, Merlot is able to mature in regions that are cooler than those required for Cabernet Sauvignon. Merlot usually has ripe berry components in the bouquet. It tends to be soft, fruity, and smooth in texture.
Aromas of dark cherry are encased in lovely smoky oak. Sweet cherry bursts at mid palate with genuine tannin that lingers on to a soft oak finish.
