Talon Winery has announced its purchase of St. Kathryn Cellars, Confre Cellars and Meadery of the Rockies in Palisade.

Owned and operated by local winemakers Glenn and Natalie Foster, Talon Winery will continue the operations of Confre founders Fred and Connie Strothman.

The Fosters have been making wine commercially in Colorado for more than a dozen years, most recently at the Colorado Wine Room in Fruita, which the couple established in 2005.

"I've been a winemaker without a winery for a while now, Glenn Foster said. We had been looking to buy a winery for some time, and Confre Cellars, with its three brands and two locations, is a perfect fit."

Wine & Beverage List

 

Meadery of the Rockies makes four traditional meads by fermenting orange-blossom honey with water and yeast to create a clear, light wine of unusual bouquet and smoothness. Alcohol content is 12% by volume, like most wine, and cost is $11.95 per 750ml bottle.

Lancelot (medium dry) Lancelot is especially good with chicken, turkey, and seafood.

Guinevere (semi-sweet) Guinevere enhances cheese, fruit, stir-fry or spicy dishes.

Camelot (sweet) A dessert wine, Camelot can be served by itself or as an accompaniment to desserts. During the winter months, warm up with a glass of hot spiced Camelot wine.

We have blended honey wine with fruit wine to create a unique tasting experience. The result is six distinct Fruit n'Honey wines, each of which has a delicate blend of flavors. These wines have an alcohol content of 12% by volume, and cost $13.95 per 750ml bottle.

Blackberries n' Honey - compliments pasta or red meat.

Strawberries n' Honey - an excellent desert wine.

Meadery of the Rockies's Velvets provide the perfect end to a perfect meal. These after-dinner sipping wines are similar to port or sherry, and have an alcohol content of 18.5%. Whether served alone, with cream, or over ice cream, these unique, smooth wines are sure to please. Choose from these flavors: Blackberry Satin, Raspberry Chocolate Velvet, Chocolate Cherry Velvet, and. 750 ml bottles cost $16.95. A bottle of Honey Sheré is $34.95.
