It’s almost becoming
old habit now! For
the 6th year in a
row, and 8 out of 13
competitions, our
Dry Chenin Blanc has
once again tickled
the fancy of 37
oyster-loving food
and wine writers,
restaurateurs,
oyster growers, and
oyster lovers at
large at the 2007
Pacific Coast Oyster
and Wine
Competition. And for
the first time, our
2005 Fumé Blanc was
also voted into the
top 10 list.

|
2005
Fumé
Blanc
and
2006
Chenin

The process
to find the
right match
is a
rigorous
one. First,
185 wines
are tasted
in a
preliminary
judging to
narrow the
contenders
to 35
semifinalists
and then 20
finalists.
Panels of 12
to 13 judges
in three
cities –
Seattle, San
Francisco
and Los
Angeles,
then taste
the 20
finalists.
Each wine is
tasted blind
with a
Kumamoto
oyster and
judges are
asked to
rate the
"bliss
factor," the
wine’s
affinity for the
oyster.
|
|
|
In the end, 10 equal
winners are selected
in the only wine
competition to judge
a wine by how it
goes with food. To
experience the bliss
of our Fumé Blanc
and/or Chenin Blanc
paired with oysters,

With
Mother’s Day over, we turn
our attention to that
special Dad in our lives.
And what better way to show
Dad you care than with a
bottle of "manly" red wine?
Our
2003 Meritage fits the
bill perfectly.
This blend of all five
Bordeaux varieties –
Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot,
Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and
Petit Verdot, is rich and
concentrated with delicious
dark fruit flavors. This is
a wine that is polished
enough to drink now, but can
also cellar for 7 to 10
years.
Delight Dad with a real
Father's Day feast, and serve
him the 2003 Meritage with
our
Featured Recipe,
Dry Creek Steak
Meritage.
For Father's Day, we're
offering 20% off purchases
of 2003 Meritage. To receive
your 20% savings, click on

the "coupon code" when you
