2008 Meritage $30.00/bottle
Lockwood Oaks Vineyard,  San Antonio Valley AVA
Grown in Lockwood Oaks Vineyard in the southern most reaches of Monterey County in the new San Antonio Valley AVA.  Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot picked at peak ripeness.  The blend aged in French & American oak barrels for 10 months.  A rich dark wine, luscious in character.  Black currant, spice, chocolate & cocoa notes rise up in the aroma.  The wine … rich, the finish … long.

2010 Syrah $33.00/bottle Wine Club Member Exclusive
Fairview Vineyard, Santa Lucia Highlands AVA
Located on the western side of River Road, in the more southerly reaches of the SLH, these vines are planted on well-draining sandy-loam soil with southwestern exposure. We chose two barrels of this wine that then aged for 20 months in French Oak before we racked and bottled it.  Balanced and elegant. Ripe plum and spicy white pepper mingle with a refreshing acidity and long finish.

Our cellar dog, “Sweetie” (pictured on the front label) when inspired by all things doggie loves to howl, & we love to howl about this wine.  Ripe, luscious & fun, just right with that BBQ bone.  Cima Collina will donate 25% of the profits from the sale of this wine  to our local SPCA for the wonderful work they do for our furry friends.  A local wine for a local cause … “go ahead and howl!!!”
