Sweeter Side | Fall 2023
Here at Oliver, we take sweet wines seriously. Carefully crafted from the best ingredients, this club is full of delightful, sweet treats to enjoy while the weather is cool. Get cozy & sip on bold-yet-light Camelot Mead, floral and spicy Gewürztraminer, or a bright and rich sneak-peak into 2024.
Camelot Mead
A new-world twist on an old-world classic. Mead is honey wine, and one of the oldest alcoholic beverages documented. Our Camelot Mead is made with orange-blossom honey, for a subtle note of citrus. It’s a pretty unique wine with bold-yet-light, sweet, and sublime flavor that’s fun to play with pairing (give it a try with creamy cheeses, chicken, or Asian fare). We love to pour a glass on cold, snowy days with soft, savory cheese, crackers, and a comfort movie.
Catawba 2022
New Vintage!
A tasting room favorite that’s hard to resist any time of year. We always strive to highlight the fruit within our wines, and Catawba is a prime example of this. If you could compare the grape and the wine side-by-side, you’d taste the unique notes of peach, strawberry, and melon in both. This beautiful blush wine lets the fruit shine for a luscious, sweet, and bright flavor to pair with relaxed nights in. Watch the sun set while you cook, or cozy up with a book and a glass of Catawba.
Gewürztraminer 2022
To describe this wine in one word? Versatile. With softly floral and spicy flavors, and a delicate sweetness on the finish, this wine tastes as unique as its name. To retain its delicate aromas and flavors, we ferment the juice at a cool temperature and arrest the fermentation (before it naturally stops) to ensure a perfect sweetness. The flavors of this wine are perfection with a Thanksgiving feast, and while it’s unique, it’s generally well-liked by dry and sweet wine-lovers alike.
Vignoles 2022
A treat to make dark, cozy evenings feel bright. Planted at the highest point of the vineyard, the wind and sun work together to perfectly ripen Vignoles grapes. After harvest, it’s fermented at a cool temperature without skins to produce this lush, balanced white wine. Experience notes of tropical pineapple, crisp pear, bright peach, and a lush, lasting finish. Sip Vignoles extra chilled for date night or intimate gatherings. Set the table, dim the lights, and pair with seafood or crème brûlée.

Late Harvest Vidal Blanc
New, Club Exclusive!
Grapes for wine are much sweeter than your average table grapes. The longer they’re on the vine, the sweeter they get. We hand-harvested these Vidal grapes on a crisp, late November morning before the sun was up to bring you this exquisite dessert wine. Tropical flavors delight the palate, with hints of pear and honeysuckle woven throughout. Sip around the fireplace while admiring the Christmas tree or with snacks before a Thanksgiving feast.

Cellar Club | Fall 2023
While we love a crisp white on a hot summer day or a dry red with an evening barbecue, dry wines are absolutely irresistible in the cooler months. There's no better time to enjoy a glass full of a rich, dry red or bright, effervescent sparkling than on cozy fall or winter days.
