Canelo Hills Vineyard | Yummy Zin | Case of 12 This fortified wine begins with a wild stewed brambleberry cobbler bouquet. The wildness continues with a powerful jammy, onfectionary fruit taste. A combination of grapes from the 2007, 2008 and 2009 vintages.
Canelo Hills Vineyard | Sunrise | 2008 | Case of 12 Bright ruby color with faint violet, raspberry and tart cherry nose, this is a blend of Nebbiolo and Syrah in roughly equal proportions. It tastes of pomegranate and cranberry with a clear, crisp, acidic finish. This versatile wine is the perfect House Wine.
Canelo Hills Vineyard | Riesling | 2009 | Case of 12 This is a crystal clear, lovely pale honey colored wine. The smells of grapes, fresh flowers and petunias fill the nose on the first sniff. The taste is typically crisp and penetrating like only a good dry Riesling can be.
Canelo Hills Vineyard | Gewurtztraminer | 2009 | Case of 12 Spicy, sassy aromas fill the glass of this special wine. Nutmeg, cinnamon, and apple and pumpkin pie spices fill the nose and mouth. Just perceptible sweetness from preserved fresh juice roundsout the finish. A glass full of smiles.
Canelo Hills Vineyard | Sauvignon Blanc | 2009 | Case of 12 A beautifully crisp white wine. It begins with aromas of dew covered desert grass, pear and apple. The dry finish has a tart, and slight apple taste. This wine evokes a leisurely afternoon in the back yard and pairs well with summer cuisine.
Canelo Hills Vineyard | Sangiovese | 2008 | Case of 12 Brilliant color with subtle currant, floral and cedar aromas lead to balanced fruit flavors and a crisp bright finish that is typical of a Chianti. This is a versatile table wine but especially delicious with tomato based pastas or Italian dishes rich with olive oil and garlic.
Canelo Hills Vineyard | Syrah | 2008 | Case of 12 The inky color and spice smells that start out the experience of this Syrah are complemented by dark cherry and blackberry fruit tastes. The finish is smooth and smoky.
Canelo Hillls Vineyard | Estate Syrah | 2008 | Case of 12 Dark garnet in color, the nose is an intoxicating mix of roses and black plum skin. This elegant wine tastes of mild freshly ground white pepper and wine poached black cherries and leaves a lovely, lingering smooth tannic finish in the mouth.
