2006 Syrah Ciel du Cheval

There is one Rhone-based wine in the collection, the 2006 Ciel du Cheval Vineyard, (100%  Varietal) aged in 40% new French and Hungarian oak. 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. It can be enjoyed over the next 6-8 years.

2006 DuBrul Vineyard Reserve: Wine & Spirits

High in extract, with scents of mocha, roasted plum and meat, this rich blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot and franc wraps around your nose like a blanket. But for all its intensity, the wine has tremendous drive on the palate.
