Make room for the Queen! The 2012 Cabernet Franc's gentle texture dances around in your mouth like silk. Soft, with a graceful elegance - qualities that reflect her royal lineage. Benevolently giving, without expectation. A true queen from the earth's spirit. The fruit tones are intertwined in adobe and balanced nicely with a slight hickory finish. Fabulously food friendly wine (what Queen doesn't enjoy a good feast?) with great aging potential. Long live the Queen!

This is a firecracker of a wine. Lively and enticing, vibrant flavors of cedar and boysenberry, it is sexy like leather and lace. Extremely aggressive, extremely age worthy. I tried to tame this little bitch with extra aging in barrel but she is a fickle beast and didn't like that much, so take her home and try her there. She is my prized beauty. Really good. Really f*ing good.

From the first touch of the tongue to its passage through the mouth to its lush satisfying finish this is a wine that brings to mind long tables filled with friends and family laughing, hugging, telling stories of long times past and immersed in each other's company. Pop a cork on this Dark and Dreamy wine anytime to bring those visions into life.

Who say's God's not a girl? The Golden God (or goddess), is a beacon of hope, like a fog horn early in the morning. This gentle beauty is a symbol of female strength. She exhibits the darker undersides of the earth, perhaps where a volcano once erupted. This wine was aged for 44 months, gaining wisdom and strength. Are you feeling powerful yet?

This one beckons you, inviting, enticing, inspiring, with up-front flavors of raspberry, plum and cherry inviting the front of your mouth and your mind to go deeper and darker letting the chocolaty earth unravel and unfold and reveal itself to you. Don't you want some? Come hither.

At Turiya things are done by hand, and barrels are lifted up high with the forklift and emptied into a tank for blending a few days before it goes into bottle. This wine was a barrel of each grape (Sangio, P.V. and Merlot) added to the mix. Why this combination? I wanted a wine with the jamminess of the Merlot, the lush and mouth-filling character of the Sangiovese and the bursting and lingeringfinish of the Petit Verdot. Equal parts provides a balanced experience.

This was the first year Turiya has produced a Cabernet Franc. I wanted to create a blend that had a majority of this grape as the driving force behind the wine. The Cab Franc lends mineralogy and a supple, woodsy character. I blended the Merlot and Sangiovese to add a bit of layered fruit and complexity to the wine. All around this is a fine wine that you can proudly share with loved ones or keep all for yourself.

You can be proud of your swag if you’ve got this beauty in your collection, this Paso delight follows tradition, (my tradition) gentle and nuanced with sexy thick, dark, briery tones that make your mouth water. Drenched with flavors of raspberry mocha that continually evolve in your glass. I am salivating as I write this. Great food wine to try with lamb chops or a zesty pasta dish. Get your swag on.

Here is a wine dedicated to all the broken hearts out there - don’t get down, love is on it’s way! 4 years of barrel aging on this gorgeous wine was well worth it; and so will be your next great love. Sometimes heartbreak is perpetuating; pushing us into the light where we really belong; the darkest part of day is always just before dawn - right? This one helped me get through the night. Maybe it can help you too. Soft, supple and jammy.

You know you want it. Try this sexy blend of Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon and see if it can take you there, with flavors of blackberry, cassis and chocolate, interlaced with the delicateness of Elton John'sTiny Dancer. She lingers on and on seemingly perpetually providing bliss upon your tongue. Enjoy.

Ah Petit, my darling. Do you know her? Perhaps you’ve seen her around? Probably not. Gals like this are hard to find. By the time you take her home to meet the parents doubt settles in - suddenly you aren’t sure if you should show her off or keep her as your little secret love. She doesn’t like to be in the limelight and she doesn’t want to be shared. She wants you all for herself. What will you do?

Drink me. Alice in Wonderland style... dark and alluring yet, obvious berries that were tossed and turned, crushed and nurtured by a woman's hand. This potion will make you feel big, hopefully it won't put your head through the roof.

In this case, the wine fell for the barrel. Then after several years together the barrel left her. Her initially sweet, charming demeanor now reflects something more cautious in the glass as you take her in and promise to love her. Her heart is with the barrel. You can still taste the oak on her lips as you swallow her up. She is vibrant and concentrated all at once. She is deliberate. She is gentle. She is loving. Layered with notes of caramel, rhubarb, candy-corn, coastal sage and mint. This is the one you've been waiting for.

Shapeshifters are known to be bewitching and mysterious. Just look at the dark color she shows off. Then put her up to your nose… lush, enticing tones of caramel and coffee or is it cocoa and cranberry? Who is she? Who cares - you’re in love. But be careful with this crafty one, things are not always what they seem.

100% free run juice, separated from the skins of the grape after crush but before pressing. The delicate juice was barreled for 36 months in newer French oak, giving this wine a luxurious, soft mouth-feel. Exuding tones of blackberry, dried figs and the underside of the earth. Get your hands on this one if you can.
