Story of our 2019 Merlot Cellar Selection

May 19

Categories: News

As we prepare the 2019 Merlot from Newsom Vineyards for bottling, we thought you might like to read a little more about this very special Cellar Selection from Siboney. The wine premiered as a pre-sale barrel sample wine to Members at the Spring Release event in April, 2021. We will fully release this wine in the Fall. All Photos by Miguel Lecuona Midnight in Plains, Texas. September 27 2019 – Harvest date of Newsom Vineyards Merlot Neal Newsom grows…

We are often asked "What does Siboney mean?" The history of the world, or our humble winery, cannot be explained in a single post. Indeed, Siboney Cellars is connected to history through many origin stories... Today seems fitting to let this passage explain the factual basis of the original meaning of Siboney. In "Admiral of the Ocean Sea", the book written by Morison (and published in 1942), the author retraces - or attempts to sail - the 4 voyages of Columbus into the "new world", following the navigational routes and correlating the logs and letters from the crew as they approach Hispañola (Dominican Republic and Haiti) and Cuba. One paragraph catches our attention, highlighted in the picture below. We suggest you enjoy an original Cuban Sandwich and light a great cigar - and a very long one - and settle into your favorite history book on our terrace. #ColumbusDay #IndigenousPeoplesDay #monday #Siboney
