2006 Wine Club Blend

Winemaker Notes

This is the second release of wine blended by our dedicated wine club members who attended the 2007 Harvest Party. The winning blend was submitted by wine club members John & Pat Lutzow and Bill & Meg Morales.

Tasting Notes

The wine has a briary nose with aromas of blackberries. Flavors of blackberries, oak, vanilla and a touch of clove enhance this very pleasant wine. Only three barrels were produced. Pair with rosemary, garlic & olive oil marinated leg of lamb or a roasted pork loin.
