Wine Review: 2008 Niner Wine Estates Twisted Spur

A new favorite of mine - Twisted Spur is a beautiful blend. Fresh, bright fruit on the nose. On the palate ripe red berry flavors are balanced by just the right amount of earthiness. It is velvety smooth with an impressively clean finish. This wine is simply delightful and is a bona fide fruit bomb. A total no brainer in my book.

Wine Review: 2006 Niner Wine Estates Fog Catcher

Niner Wine Estates Fog Catcher is a classic Bordeaux blend; Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot. It is a hearty wine, with great concentration and depth. Bold and rich, Fog Catcher has a deliciously complex flavor profile with vibrant dark fruit flavors with vanilla and oak.

Wine Review: 2008 Niner Wine Estates Sauvignon Blanc

Niner Sauvignon Blanc has a clean nose with crisp citrus notes. It is rich and creamy with a smooth, oaky profile. Best described as a soft and less acidic than your typical Sauvignon Blanc, it is Chadonnay-esque in style. This Sauvignon Blanc is a refreshing option for those who want to try something new.

Wine Review: 2007 Niner Wine Estates Cabernet Sauvignon

A classic California Cabernet, this wine well balanced and has great concentration. Herbal notes on the nose with hints of red berries and dark fruit. Dark cherry on the palate with a good amount of oak. Finishes strong with a fine tannic profile.
