TODAY'S TASTING

Appetizers by Roy Harland's kitchen will be served with the Tasting.

Fresno State SJC chardonnay 2007

The 2007 Chardonnay, produced from grapes grown by the Duarte family,
features ties of rich apple, pear, melon, and spice. Medium oak flavors
expand and develop the wines full bodied texture and finish. Served chilled,
this wine is the perfect accompaniment for traditional light meat venues and
heavy hors d'oeuvres.

Philippe-Lorraine Chardonnay 2005

Opens with sweet apricot and lime aromas with a touch of fresh grass, herb,
fig and honey. This barrel-fermented Chardonnay had the heaviest oak profile
of the group, but it carries it well. Boasts very forward green apple, sweet
citrus and melon fruit flavors in a buttery wine that finishes with soft
vanilla. An excellent value for a wine from the prestigious Napa Valley.

Philippe-Lorraine Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2005

Candied violet and cherry flavors dissipate quickly on a lean and drying
frame.

Jeriko Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

Fresh & bright fruit forward aromas. Flavors: Mouth-coating flavors of ripe
& bright fruits of dark cherry with a slight herb component. Toasty oak &
smoke with a hint of caramel. Finish: Soft velvety tannins are integrated
into a long, lingering finish with a hint of anise & eucalyptus. Serve with
rich beef, game or lamb dishes with rosemary potatoes & baked vegetables.
Pair with Cheesecake Momma's Organic Chocolate or Chocolate Cheesecake.
