Lush tannins, bright fruit & criminally rich - a riot of blackberry, raspberry & black pepper. A break away hit with pizza, pasta and BBQ.

Crisp, fragrant & persistent - a riot of citrus, flowers & peach. An arresting accompaniment to salmon & roast chicken.

Dry, crisp & fragrant - an uprising of bright cherry, strawberry & watermelon. Criminally delicious with grilled salmon and pasta salad.

Birdman is what they call him. He's been around as long as we can remember; keeping tabs on the Big House. Word has it he watches over the vineyards and calls the shots. No wonder this Pinot Grigio sings with a harmonious blend of floral, peach and pear aromas and finishes with a long fruity warble. Pretensions fly away when paired with grilled seafood or Asian cuisine.

Hey Warden! Can't finger us out of the Lineup... that's 'cuz as usual suspects are always found together- makin' a more "intriguing" wine than if bottled separately "Tiny" Grenache brings his fruity punch, Syrah (aka Shiraz) has dark, peppery disposition and me, "Mickey" Mouruedre, a rich, full-bodied past. Don't mess with us as our Mediterranean heritage delivers one Chateauneuf-du-punch! Lock us up with brick oven pizza, BBQ ribs and roast chicken.

It seems our boy Petite Sirah wasn't so tight with the French side of the family. They sold him up the river for what they termed "difficulty in maturing." Thankfully, doing time in Califorian Big House has tamed this Prodigal Son's tannic ways. Ya gotta hand it to him; the kid's got spunk (intense vibrant blackberry fruits and a rich, smooth finish.) Perfect with Boeuf Bourguignon or BBQ.

Hey, Hacks! I see you breaking out that bottle of criminally rich Syrah. I bet the unfettered blackberry and cassis flavors make you feel free as a bird. Pizza, burgers and spicy kebabs make it more than sing sing for its supper. Just wait 'til I'm at liberty to join you....
