Our Hand Crafted Wine 

We have been known for producing wines that have fruit-forward style, moderate oak, varietal character and the good, flinty, and earthy aromas of hand-pressed grapes. 

 In California we are blessed with a great variety of micro climates, each capable of producing grapes of extraordinary quality and style. Irish Monkey seeks out these extraordinary vineyards with their unique micro climates, and working closely with the winegrower, strive to optimize the fullest potential of each property. From the heart of the Napa, Sonoma, to the Alexander Valley and Lodi, each vineyard Robert purchase grapes from is blessed with a unique terror.

To compliment the efforts of the wine grower, Irish Monkey strives to produce wines that exhibit wonderful balance. Irish Monkey wines are often referred too as having an Old World elegance and sophistication. Irish Monkey styles of wine making is to emphasize the fruit and employ vilification techniques that will capture and accentuate the fruit expression unique to each vineyard. Along with fruit, balance is vitally important, and at Bell Wine Irish Monkey we strive to find the quintessential balance between fruit, acid, oak and tannin, in producing my wines. I hope you enjoy the "vineyard expression" in each of our wines.
