A treasure brought back from Napa by Clarence. Wish I'd taken a more detailed note but I distinctly recall this wine being very smooth and wonderfully aromatic. Only 1800 bottles produced. Paired with pork tenderloin.

Smooth sauvignon blanc with an apple influence, plenty of acidity,and a toasted, smoky finish.

This was my France choice for the 80 Sip Challenge kick-off.I thought this red wine merlot was very appealing,with its dark reddish-purple color,the notes are defined very well with the aroma of red ripened fruit,strong & spicy,with a long aftertaste in the pallet.I wasn't too sure about this particular wine,but found it to be suprisingly tasty.It is more on the heavy side.

This white wine was tasted at the 80 Sip Challenge kick-off also,and I enjoyed it alot.This was my Italy choice to taste,and being a fan of Pinot Grigio,I had to try this.It tasted very light,with a green grape flavor that did linger a little afterwards,which was good.I felt it had alot of flavor,yet it was light,and would not suggest using this wine for a full meal,but rather for appetizers,cheese and other like items.

I triedthis one alsoat the 80 Sip Challenge kick-off,and thought it made a very good wine-especially for the price.It has a nice blend of citrus,spiciness,and cherry notes.It's not too strong and I thought it was very smooth both during the tasting,and as it went down.No strong aftertaste as some may have,although the flavors do linger in your mouth.

This wine is pale green-yellow,and has citrusy and hints of strawberry notes upon the scent as well as the tasting.It is very smooth,and it's more on the strong bodied side as far as the tasting palate.It is an enjoyable wine,and is definately fruity throughout it.The combination of Pinot noir and chardonnayworks very well in this combinations wine.

This red wine Zinfandel has notes of spice,blackberry,and finishes with tannins.Ithas sweet vanilla notes as well that lead to a smooth ripe berry with hints of what appears to be passionfruit-like.This wine was actually a suprise with it's taste,and the combination of notes in it made for a wonderful wine that most would be suprised about.It has a bright ruby color to it also.Overall,it's a winner.
