Wine Description: Cabernet Sauvignon Aromas of blackberry, black currant and plum meld with layers of cinnamon and vanilla when you first uncork this wine. Wait a minute and you’ll enjoy the soft hint of a Cuban cigar box. With a solid and pleasing core of Cabernet flavor, this wine comes across with rich fruit flavors of black cherry and full ripe raspberry. The plush texture gives way to the gentle undertones of vanilla leading to a long, satisfying finish. |
| Food Recommendations:
Our 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon is the perfect companion to all grilled or roasted red meats as well as pork. For an easy but elegant meal, combine fresh chopped rosemary and thyme with a sprinkle of garlic salt and ground pepper. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over a leg of lamb. Use your fresh herbs as a rub for the lamb then grill in the oven or on the barbecue. Serve with our Cabernet and be ready to impress your guests. Enjoy! |
| Winemaker's Notes:
The 2005 growing season began with a relatively cool, rainy and late spring, providing a slow start to vine growth. These cooler conditions lead numerous varieties and appellations to start blooming at about the same time. The long summer weather was mild and moderate, encouraging extra growth, increased berry size with heavier and tighter clusters. The weather cooled toward the end of the growing season delaying harvest by 10 days to two weeks later than usual extending “hangtime” for perfectly balanced sugars and acids. Colors in red wines were intense, inky-dark and opulent. 2005 looks to be another stellar vintage! BLEND: 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Merlot， 4％ Syrah
and 3% Cabernet Franc. |
Wine Description: Merlot |
 Our 2007 Napa Valley Merlot has bright, inviting aromas of cranberry, black currant and succulent blueberry wrapped around rich, dark chocolate and vanilla. This full-body wine opens with fresh blackberry and cranberry laced with flavors of creamy mocha and dried cherry. Abundant, mouthwatering flavors combined with soft, supple tannins lead to a long, satisfying finish. Whether relaxing with a glass of this Merlot by yourself or serving to friends and family to enjoy with dinner - this wine is sure to be a hit with all! |
| Food Recommendations:
It’s “love at first sip” when you serve this Merlot with grilled lamb skewers alongside sweet Maui onions and beefsteak tomatoes. Those daring enough to try grilled ostrich loin wrapped with sliced bacon and served with pomegrante reduction sauce will be astounded at this pairing. Our Merlot is absolutely perfect served with roasted coco encrusted pork loin, leg of lamb, beef stew or wild game. |

Wine Description: Chardonnay |
 A widely appealing Chardonnay with aromas of fresh citrus blossom, dried white peach, nectarine and pear are apparent as soon as you pop the cork. These wonderful fruit fragrances are intertwined with soft butterscotch and French vanilla. Crafted with fresh pear, apricot and green apple flavors this classic Chardonnay has a round mouth feel leading to a clean, crisp finish. |
| Food Recommendations:
This crowd pleasing Chardonnay is perfect, slightly chilled, by the glass. A perfect companion to traditional dishes such as oven roasted chicken, grilled pork shoulder or a summer salad. This wine is also a superb choice when serving fresh scallops or prawns, Fettucini Alfredo or Chicken Parmesan. A great choice to pair with fresh fruit tarts or pecan ice cream. Enjoy! |
| Winemaker's Notes:
Sometimes we just have to pay tribute to the weather gods, who provided us with some spectacular conditions and made this one of the shortest growing seasons on record for the past 20 years. Although being one of the shortest growing seasons, it managed to produce the third largest harvest in history. September arrived with its usual heat and the chaos of harvest went into full swing. While berry size appeared to be smaller flavors seem to be full and intense. From all indications this looks to be an exceptional harvest with superior quality wine! BLEND: 100% Chardonnay. AGING / FERMENTATION: Fermented
and aged in a combination of French and American oak barrels and
temperature controlled stainless steel tanks. |
Wine Description: Sangiovese - Organic |
 This wine expresses the essence of the great Sanggiovese grape with its delicate nose, rich color, and seductively soft mouth feel. |
Wine Description: Syrah |
 This bouquet offers splendid fruit aromas. Explosive dried cherry fruit just slightly oaked with rich tannins and acid for a long finish. A robust dry wine ideal for red meats and hearty meat sauces. |
