2006 Firehouse Red: Wine & Spirits

Always a juicy, jammy, generous wine, this year's Firehouse has an extra dollop of smoky oak to go with it's ripe black cherry and plum flavors.

2005 Cabernet Sauvignon: Wine & Spirits

As inky as black coffee when first poured, it has the richness of chocolate cake with a vivid red berry core that gives the wine its energy. For short ribs braised in red wine.

2006 Syrah Ciel du Cheval: Wine Advocate

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

 The nose exhibits smoked meat, bacon and blueberry, leading to a full-bodied dense chewy wine with plenty of succulent fruit, some structure and a friendly personality.
