Viognier Wulf Vineyard 2006
"A fragrant bouquet punctuated by roses. Full of satisfying ripe fruit and balanced by mineral and herb notes. Dense and rich with a balance of freshness and structure. A fantastic and versatile wine to accompany everything from grilled fish to spicy, exotic Asian dishes to the most delicate of custards and cakes. A spectacular alternative white wine with a pale golden green hue."*



Pinot Noir Arroyo Grande 2004
"Laetitia Vineyard in Arroyo Grande has been farming organically with no pesticides or herbicides for many years and will be certified organic next vintage. Aromas of ripe black cherry and raspberry fruit dominate the nose. On the palate, the concentrated raspberry and cherry fruit are mouth filling with great depth of flavor extending into a long finish with hints of vanilla and toasty oak. Very much in the Burgundian mode, this dark garnet colored Pinot can be paired with almost any dish, from grilled vegetables, grilled salmon or seared ahi to pasta and a wide array of cheese. This cuvee' is a blend of clones 667 and 115 which contribute greatly to it's complexity."*

Syrah Barrel Select 2004
"Rich and profound nose of wild strawberries and red currant. A vivid wine manifesting eminent purity, the palate offers a singular profusion of sweet licorice. A versatile, all around red that is as great a duet with cheeses and tomato based pasta sauces as it is grilled or roasted beef or lamb."*
