Can wine be fun?

We think so.

For more than ten years, the award-winning success of Rutz Cellars’ wines has demonstrated the value of the winemaking style created by proprietor Keith Rutz. He has taken France’s fondness for small-lot craftsmanship and extensive highlighting of grape terroir, and combined it with California’s love of bold, spicy, oaky fullness.

Hand-selected fruit, gentle processing, French oak cooperage, and extensive aging in the constant temperature and humidity of our distinctive Sonoma County cave have all combined to produce premium wines that blend the best qualities of California and France. 

Now, Keith has proven that the same meticulous attention to detail can be brought to market in an affordable wine for everyone to enjoy. The Rutz Cellars 2001 Vintage Romance Series Wines are classically Northern California wines in the French village style of everyday drinking wines. The select Sonoma and Napa county fruit exhibits all of the outstanding qualities of the region, resulting in crisp, clean wines with good acid structure and distinctive mineral content.

Plus they have a really cool label...  

Enjoy!
