The Captain is a tribute to Kristen’s dad, Gregg Couch, who dedicated over 40 years of his life to the fire department. Having served as Career Captain, Fire Science Instructor, and Commissioner, he spent countless hours keeping others safe while training the next generation of firefighters. We honor and respect the sacrifice of the men and women who protect America’s communities on the front lines every day. Thank You First Responders!
Discover The Captain, our uniquely crafted local red blend, nurtured organically to truly reflect its terroir. To maintain this connection from vine to glass, we aged it exclusively in neutral French oak barrels. This choice adds a touch of texture and maturity while preserving the vibrant fruit character.
Upon your first encounter, The Captain
unveils a delightful array of fresh fruit notes—think black cherry, blackberry, and plum. These flavors are beautifully complemented by subtle hints of violets, boysenberry jam, and currants. The wine features firm, chalky tannins, enhanced by a sprinkle of white pepper and balanced acidity, culminating in a juicy mouthfeel that bursts with personality.
While The Captain showcases its freshness right from the first pour, we suggest letting it breathe for one hour. A short decant will elevate its complex flavors to new heights, making your tasting experience even more enjoyable. Cheers to savoring every sip!
