2009 Cabernet Sauvignon
A girl's-eye view:The girls look up from their 2,000-2,400 ft. elevation, and enjoy a stunning panorama of Clear Lake and Mt. Konocti, languidly gazing on the morning fog below. Looking down, they can usually see themselves reflected in the obsidian rocks mixed throughout the bright red, volcanic soil they call home.
What the girls look like:
A rich and elegant garnet.
What the girls smell like:
A lovely blend of cassis, currant and deepest darkest cherry.
What the girls feel like:
You know how a silk scarf can just slip from your shoulder unexpectedly. This middleweight wine delivers glide-from-your-shoulder silkiness.
What the girls taste like:
Cassis and bramble fruit with a hint of Mother Earth and sufficient cocoa to make it interesting.
Matchmaking the girls:
Like a classic cashmere sweater, our girls go with everything. In your dining room, poolside, or perched on a cafe table downtown, the girls in the vineyard, animate any occasion. Pairing them with food? They go uptown, downtown and even barbecue town with ease. Some successful matches include the classics like steak, or less conventional red wine fare like spicy Thai prawns and grilled Italian sausage.

A girl's-eye view:
One hour north of Napa, Lake County is a lovely place for the girls to grow up and flourish. Abundant sunshine warms our mornings and afternoons, replacing the pleasant cool of the evenings and nights. The vineyard is an ancient river bed with gravely soil the girls call home.
What the girls look like:
A pale straw yellow that reminds us of Languedoc sunflowers or the mustard that brightens the valleys of California's wine country every spring.
What the girls smell like:
A bowl of July's freshest fruit with a touch of minerality.
What the girls feel like:
That same feeling of riding your bike to a river and dipping your legs over a dock into the circling eddies below even if you're wearing your best Sunday dress. It is refreshing and alive and especially memorable for anyone over 21. So put on crisp linens or cut-off jeans and enjoy a distinct yet delicate white wine experience that can be enjoyed and shared.
What the girls taste like:
Citrus and the crispness of fresh cut pineapple that finishes with a bit of lemongrass and fig.
Matchmaking the girls:
When it comes to romancing food, these girls pair up without a lot of fuss or prep time. Our girls have pretty varied tastes so they'll confidently befriend a variety of appetizers, entrees and culinary adventures. If it is something you might squeeze a lemon on, you can enthusiastically introduce it to Sauvignon Blanc. Think crab cakes, smoked salmon, stuffed oysters or lightly sauced chicken. You could even try some Caribbean with a little Bob Marley. Whether in your home, poolside, or perched on a cafe table downtown, you'll find that the girls in the vineyard are very flexible and ready to animate any occasion.

2011 Rosé
Forget what you know about Rosé. This wine is so much more. It is beautiful. From the color to the aroma to the taste. It is fresh, bright and interesting. It is summer in a bottle. The only thing that will be on our table this summer is fresh fruit, garden salad, a baguette and this wine. It is that good.| Appellation Lodi |
