Wine Gift Basket Includes:
- 2021 DAOU Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon
The 2021 DAOU Discovery Cabernet Sauvignon presents a deep ruby-purple color, foreshadowing intense aromas of cherry and blackberry jam complemented by dark chocolate, tobacco leaf and desert sage. The nose also reveals secondary nuances of wet gravel, sandalwood, and plum pudding with subtle notes of fennel, black olive, and eucalyptus. On the palate, a swirl of black raspberry, pomegranate, cherry preserve, and Zante currant melds seamlessly with crushed herbs, fig, and cranberry. An impeccably balanced finish flows effortlessly from the juicy mid-palate, leaving lovely notes of boysenberry, rhubarb, graphite, and dried thyme.
Rated 93 Points: Robert Parker - Schramsberg Mirabelle Brut
This non-vintage flavorful, bright bubbly exhibits the crisp acidity and vibrant apple/citrus fruit that is characteristic of cool-climate Chardonnay. Pinot Noir adds body to the palate and further depth of fruit flavor.
Rated 90 Points: Wine Spectator - 2021 Moniker La Ribera Single Vineyard Chardonnay
White peach, crème brûlée and complex aromas of vanilla and graham cracker on the nose, lead to opulent flavors of ripe apricot, warm peach, and nectarine. Vanilla and caramel compliment the wine’s fruit, mingling subtle notes of nutmeg and cinnamon in the full finish.
Rated 92 Points: Wine Enthusiast - 2021 Ponzi Tavola Pinot Noir
Fresh red fruits of strawberry, cranberry, and pie cherry-tinged with notes of rose petal and peppercorn leap from the glass. The mouth has darker notes of cola, blackberry, salty licorice, and vanilla. The finish holds bright acidity framed by soft tannins and a hint of rhubarb jam to perfectly balance this lovely pure expression of Oregon Pinot Noir.
