Welcome to the Fine Wines of Surface Creek Winery!

Surface Creek  Winery hand crafts its wines from the finest Colorado fruit available.  As with any vintage wines, our offerings will vary from year to year, but we are always committed to providing our new and existing customers with an exceptional wine tasting experience.

Our current offerings include:

2003 Elephant Eye Cabernet Sauvignon:  Originally released at a benefit for the Denver Zoo, Elephant Eye Cabernet is full bodied, with black currant overtones and a smoky finish.  This wine pairs well with venison, elk, and buffalo, as well as traditional beef and lamb dishes.  ($18.00 plus shipping & handling)  Sorry, Sold Out!  We will be releasing a new Cabernet shortly.  Please check back!

Trophy Bull Red Non-Oaked Merlot:  Each year we  seek out a fruity Merlot that is representative of the fine fruits flavors found in Colorado.  Then we ferment and age it in stainless steel, leaving the fruit flavors unencumbered by oak.  We have reserved our fruity 2005 Merlot for this year's Trophy Bull Red release.  Serve it with chicken roasted with garlic, rosemary & olive oil, as well as red meats.
 ($16.00 plus shipping & handling)

2005 Colorado Syrah (Shiraz):  These beautiful Syrah grapes were grown in the Surface Creek Valley's Distant Peaks Vineyard.  This intense red wine starts with lush berry flavors and finishes with rich characteristics of coffee, leather, spices and pepper.  Pair with red meats, Moroccan foods and intense cheeses such as gorgonzola and domestic Maytag Bleu.  ($16.75 plus shipping & handling)

Gunnison Grouse White Table Wine:  While not endangered like the real Gunnison Grouse, our white table wine is a rare blend of Pinot Gris and a dry Gerwurztraminer.  Crisp and fruity, this wine pairs well with chicken, fish and cheese and is the perfect sipping wine for warm summer days.  ($12.50 plus shipping & handling)

Sandhill Crane Blush Table Wine:  As sponsors of the annual Eckert Cranes Days, Surface Creek Winery has created a celebratory, lightly sweet blush wine for those of our customers who prefer a sweeter wine, or are looking for a perfect match for dessert.  Serve this wine with anything chocolate, or better still, a New York style cheesecake topped with Cabernet Sauvignon sauce!  ($12.50 plus shipping & handling)

Colorado Cherry Wine:  Our ever popular Colorado Cheery Wine will be ready soon in 375 ml. splits.  A lightly sweet fruit wine, this wine is very popular with the long-time residents of the Surface Creek Valley, who reminisce for the cherry wine that grandma and grandpa used to make.  We encourage you to try this fruit wine with stuffed roast pork loin, or paired  with glazed ham or grilled salmon.  ($12.50 plus shipping & handling)

Purchasing our Wines:  All of our fine wines are available in our Tasting Room, or can be shipped by FedEx throughout the state of Colorado.  Call us directly at 970-835-9463, or e-mail us at winery@surfacecreek.com
