winemaker's notes:

Nearly opaque black-ruby in color, the 2003 Tapestry Reserve strongly showcases the concentration that came from this late-ripening vintage. Exotic aromas of black olive, dark cherry, vanilla-rosemary oak spice and dark cocoa with anise lead to rich, medium-full-bodied flavors of cedar, tobacco, dark currant and olives. The tannins are rich but not harsh.

This is a delicious wine to enjoy now or down the road with aged cheeses, grilled meats and other strong, savory dishes.

A Customer - Brooklyn, NY
I am not a wine expert, but it doesn't take one to know that this wine was a treat. Smooth going down, wonderful aromas, and taste. It was a reccomandation by my local wine store as a favor for our guests at our wedding on 07/07/07. Nazdrowie/ Salute
A Customer - Briarcliff Manor, New York
I have enjoyed a number of bottles of the 2003 Tapestry over the past 6 months. I find it an altogether agreeable wine with flavors of blackfruit and cherries and tannins that are evident but soft rather than harsh or pronounced. It is an easy enough wine to sip and enjoy as a "stand-alone" and it strikes me as even better with some mild to mid sharp cheeese. I think it would, however, be overwhelmed by a "big" or highly spiced dish. I am very happy that I have a few more bottles of this wine to enjoy.

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.
Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.
