  Very Drinkable - 8/6/2008
I would buy this wine again

Good wine, but a little sweet for my taste. My companion loved it, saying it was "very drinkable".

  Barbera - 6/24/2008
I would buy this wine again

I traditionally do not drink dry wines but this was a great find. I saw an article in the Wall Street Journal about Barbera's and am glad I followed their recommendation. I have purchased 5 bottles from different wineries and am sure I will enjoy them all.

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.

Organically grown grapes
Organically Grown Grapes
These wines are made from organically grown grapes from vineyards dedicated to sustainable farming.

Collectible wine
Collectible
These wines will improve from additional bottle age, when properly stored, and may show the greatest potential to increase in value.
