Extras

Mesta Blanco
A refreshing blend of aromatic Moscatel and fruity Macabeo grapes.  With its lively pineapple and citrus flavor, it pairs well with salads and other light dishes.

Yealands Sauvignon Blanc 2008
Lifted citrus and fresh herb aromas, underpinned by classic Seaview vineyard characteristics of mineral, nettle and wet stone.  It is a refined intense wine with generous fruit and elegant texture.

Root: 1 Chardonnay 2008
With its light oak aging, the fresh, food-friendly Root:1 showcases the delicious fruitiness of the Chardonnay grape.  Melon, oney, and toasted hazelnut flavors on the palate.  Produced under sustainable viticulture.

Zardetto Private Cuvee Brut NV
Fruity flavors of pears, apples, and peaches dissolve into floral notes, with a hint of citrus fruit and an aromatic quality that is fresh and rich in sensations. 

Rock & Vine Cabernet Sauvignon 2006
A rich blackberry and cassis flavor intermixed with roasted coffee beans and cocoa aromas.  Flavors of sweet oak and spice combined with tobacco and black cherries which linger throughout the lengthy finish.

Ten Mile Red
Inspired by the classic "field blends" of California from the late 1800s, Ten Mile Red is a blend of old vines Petite Sirah, Zinfandel, Barbera and Carignane.  This expressive red shows alluring white pepper, black fruits, and cedar notes on the nose, while plenty of black cherry and blackberry fruits dominate the creamy palate.  

Castillo de Monjardin Tintico 2008
A lively flavored and firm structure. This is a bright, complex, well-knit and elegant wine with a distinct display of terroir.
