Bursting with intense aromas of cassis, with hints of cedar, anise and cigar box. Wonderfully rich, with lots of dark berry fruit on the palate.  This would work great along side braised buffalo or any red meat that utilizes nutmeg or cinnamon in its rub.  $19.99

"Lodi's climate and soil are ideal for Petite Sirah production, which is why the area is the state's leading producer of this varietal." This wine uses rotary fermentation techniques, which insures that every characteristic and bit of flavor is extracted from the fruit. The wine is aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, concentrating its fruit and rounding out the flavors.  Test this

The wine's color is dark purple and inky, a quality that is very indicative of Petite Sirah. Your nose may detect aromas of blackberry jam, underbrush, fall spices, and rosemary. The palate offers an explosion of purple and dark fruits such as boysenberry, plum and sweet black cherry. Firm tannins persist throughout the finish with hints of smoke and dark chocolate. This wine calls for a grilled steak!  $13.99

A soft, yet structured blend of Grenache, Carignan, Cinsault and Merlot from around the town Orange at the Southern edge of the Rhone Valley. It goes down so easy with all its spicey fruit you'll wonder how the bottle was finished so quickly.  Supple tannins make this an ideal substitue for the Pinot Noir lover looking to branch out and try something different. $11.99
