2001 Chardonnay
Very buttery/oaky in the nose. Add to that pear and apple on the palate and the lingering finish. A very creamy, delicious Chardonnay.

2000 Merlot Reserve
Wonderful fruit and spice flavors made this a very tasty wine.

2000 Cabernet Franc
Lots of fruit in the aroma and taste, particularly blackberries, with a hint of licorice on the finish. Yummy with chocolate!

1998 Cabernet Sauvignon (Winery 21)
A light Cab with a very fruity, aromatic nose. This would be a good transition wine for those who are venturing into the reds.

White Zinfandel (NV)
Lots of strawberries and candied fruit flavors. A nice mild wine that would make a delightful 'starter' to your meal.

2000 Late Harvest Zinfandel
Luscious! Intense flavors of black cherry and currant with just a hint of vanilla. Produced from 110-year-old dry farmed vines. Great after-dinner sipping wine that's not overwhelmingly sweet.

2001 Chardonnay Estate Port
We picked up a hint of baked apples in the nose and flavor. Absolutely to-die-for with English Blue Stilton cheese.

Other wines produced by this winery include: Sauvignon Blanc and a California Sparkling Wine.
