2011 Stonefly: Syrah
Region: California

Description: "In Australia they call this popular grape Shiraz. In California, we call it Syrah—like the French—and pride ours on the herb and floral notes that keep the integrity of this wonderful grape. Starting with violet on the nose, our lighter-bodied Syrah develops into a mild flavor of lavender jam and anise."

2008 Cosentino Winery: "The Novelist" White Meritage
Region: California

Description: "Fresh lemon blossom, honeydew-melon, and quince raise the curtain on this aromatic wine. Youthful and bright tangerine citrus flavors are well-balanced by the palate’s somewhat creamy notes and elegant minerality. Honey, tangerine, and lemon peel meld in the zesty and expansive finish."

2009 Cosentino Winery: "The Chard"
Region: California

Description: "This exceptional Chardonnay was carefully crafted to highlight balance and flavor. [After] an extended period in oak barrel, prominent toasted-hazelnut notes mingle alongside juicy peach and ripe apricot. This wine is a [...] year-round wine, excellent for a warm summer evening or a fall feast. Serve chilled or bring to room temperature for a nice, slightly creamier taste on the palate."

2011 Windsor Vineyard: Pinot Grigio, Private Reserve
Region: California

Description: "Fresh, crisp, and delicious. Greets you with aromas of ripe apples, sea breeze, and light tropical notes of pineapple. On the palate, this 2011 vintage has a nice weight with crisp green apple [and] bright acidity and finishes with a hint of tropical sweetness."
