2004 Baldacci Zinfandel
A showy and rich Zinfandel, this wine showcases the dense palate that is so cherished from this prized 102-year-old vineyard. A heady perfume of spiciness, earthiness and plum compote signals the sumptuous tasting that is to follow. Jewel-like flavors of ripe black fruits and deep plum unfold in the mouth, polished with nuances of dried figs and dark chocolate. Beautifully integrated layers swell throughout the lengthy and well balanced finish. Finished with a Silver Medal at the Sonoma County Harvest Fair.

2004 Thorn Pinot Noir
Lush aromas entice with strawberry, floral cherry and a touch of earthiness. Abundant layers sweep the palate, with bright acidity balancing the ripe, intense fruit. A tapestry of anise, dried herbs, cloves and tobacco completes the long, graceful finish. This Pinot Noir shows excellent balance and complexity. Finished with a Gold Medal at the Sonoma County Harvest Fair.

2003 L Cabernet Sauvignon
The initial bouquet delivers almond-infused blackberry jam, deepening to notes of tobacco and worn leather. Sweet black cherry fills the mouth, followed by harmonious layers of vanilla, mocha and smoky oak. Exceptionally well integrated, this Cabernet is refined and easy to enjoy. Finished with a Double Gold Medal at the Sonoma County Harvest Fair.
