The aromas of cherry and plum jump from this bottle. The mouth is full of juicy dark black currant, plum, chocolate and toasted vanilla oak. The tannins are medium bodied and integrated nicely, and the finish is long and satisfying.

2006 Estate Syrah
Dry Creek Valley
$32 per bottle
Usually, the Everett Ridge Estate produces some of Dry Creek’s finest syrah; and our 2006 vintage certainly continues that tradition.
The wine has aromas of toasted vanilla oak, black cherry and cocoa. The mouth is full of black cherry, blackberry, and plum, with just a hint of the customary bacon flavor we often get in the Syrah. It's ripe, juicy and balanced.
Sure, our 2006 Estate Petite Sirah is big, ripe and juicy, but it is also elegant. Now,” elegant” is not a word one traditionally uses in conjunction with a Petite Sirah—but it truly fits. It starts with terrific aromas of sweet vanilla-oak, plum and spice. The mouth has lots of juicy black fruit flavors, with good structure and a terrific finish. As always, our Estate Petite Sirah is a terrific bottle of wine.
We are so pleased with the way this wine has developed. Zinfandel lovers will enjoy the ripe, briary flavors, and the delicious cherry and blackberry fruit that is so abundant here. There is a terrific spicy hint of cinnamon, too. This is going to be a favorite among our wine club members.

$32 per bottle

2006 Estate Sangiovese
Dry Creek Valley
$32 per bottle
Wine Club Members
Dry and elegant, this Sangiovese has red cherry, cola and spice flavors that are very pleasing. Frankly, we think it would pair well with chicken marsala or even flank steak, rather than a traditional Italian meal. With or without food, however, this Sangiovese is a crowd-pleaser. We made less than 100 cases of this terrific wine, so if you like it, order your share quickly.
