For Living
Desired 2002
This medium bodied wine is easily approachable. It's bright cherry, raspberry, and violets are layered with hints of oak. While the soft fine grain tannin gives structure without being astringent.

Premiera
A beautiful blush wine, filled with white flowers and ripe strawberry. The residual sugars are well balanced with the acidity to finish clean and fresh.

Bianca
An off dry white wine, grown on the Lover's Leap estate. White berries and hints of floral notes lends to the citrus fruit. The subtle sugars fatten the mouth and balance the crisp finish.

Amore White
Vibrant floral notes open this sweet, light wine. The well balanced acidity allows the ripe, juicy fruit and the white flower flavors to be expressed with grace.  
 
Amore
A Labrusco wine, filled with the robust berry that has made it famous throughout the East coast. This sweet red has a distinct Concord flavor without the strong foxy character associated with that varietal.

American
Riesling 2004
A long cold fermentation was used to highlight the varietal characteristics of this Riesling. Apricot, melon, and hints of lemon grass fill the palette. The residual sugars balance the wine which finishes clean and crisp with hints of spice.

Merlot 2002
Aged 100% in French oak, this Merlot is plummy with layers of ripe red berries. Vanillins from the French oak polish the fine grain tannins. A soft Merlot that can be aged or be drank at release.
 
  Cabernet Sauvignon 2001
Vibrant cherry, layered with blueberry fills the palette. Hints of mint add to the complexity. Tones of French oak highlight this fleshy wine. The soft tannins make this wine easy for all to enjoy
 
Blackberry (Dessert Wine)
Rich and expressive, filled with the sweet intensity of ripe fruit. Layered in blackberry, cherry and raspberry. Bottled in 500 mL imported glass, bar top closer.

Estate

Most of our wines are 100% estate grown, we have chosen the three very best to title "Estate". These wines carry the original Lover's Leap label, and hold what we believe is not just the future of the winery but of the Kentucky wine industry.

Chardonnay 2002
In the 2002 Chardonnay you can see the effects of Kentucky's hot dry summer. Ripe apple is the dominate character, with hint of melon. Layers of vanilla from the barrel fermentation fill the mid palette. Plump mouth feel, and rounded acids lend to a clean lengthy finish.
 
Cynthiana 2002
Harvested on October the 3rd, the fruit was 20% dehydrated. The press yields were very low, but the three acres still yielded an amazing 9 tons. Dense, jammy, yet this wine hasn't closed off. Aged in a combination of 70% French oak and 30% American this Cynthiana has developed a range of depth. Spicy with red berry fruit, this wine is similar to the red Zinfandels that make "winies" gluttonous.

Cabernet Sauvignon 2002
After a summer of blistering heat and with no rain, the 2 acres of estate Cabernet Sauvignon was harvested on an overcast day. Starting before the sun rose on September the 23rd, the fruit was hand picked and immediately taken to the crush pad. To other growers harvesting fruit at 240 brix is unthinkable. At Lover's Leap it is the rule. We constantly worked the vines so we could have perfectly ripe fruit.
Garnet color with generous tannins, the ripe cherry and black currant fill the palette. Soft oak polishes the firm structure and red berry finish an amazing wine.

Sparkling Wine
Lover's Leap is proud to offer the first Sparkling Wine to be grown and produced in the state of Kentucky. Using the traditional Methode de Champenoise of bottle fermentation, over two years of bottle aging on the lees, riddling and and disgorging by hand shows the great length we have gone to produce an exceptional product.

Cuvee Blanc 2002
This handcrafted Extra Dry sparkling wine will be sure to delight any palate. We hope you are as excited about the upcoming release as we are.
