About our 2005 Four A's Cabernet
"It’s a very rich wine, offering upfront
blackberry, cherry, currant and sandalwood flavors
that are almost sweet, they’re so ripe. But
the wine is dry."
~ Wine Enthusiast Magazine
About our 2007 ClandestZin:
"Super-fruity and ultra-soft, with
flavors of raspberries, cherries, red currants,
bacon, cocoa, cola and lots of peppery spices."
~ Wine Enthusiast Magazine
"2006 ClandestZin has 'rich blueberry jam flavors' which gives 'a sweet contrast to the American oak tannin"
~ Wine and Spirits Magazine
Our First Taste of the San Francisco Wine Association
Monday, December 22, 2008
Read the entire article at Norcal-wine.com
As we mentioned last week, the San Francisco Wine Association (SWFA) had a big tasting party recently at Crushpad. The SFWA is a new organization which unites boutique wineries that are based in or make their wine in the city of San Francisco. As there is a distinct shortage of satisfactory grapevines within the city limits, th e association’s wineries source their fruit from some of the best vineyards up and down the West Coast....
...Ricardus Corculum: We like the name of Richard Hart’s winery, and we like the wine behind the name. They offered a tasty Zinfandel, but it was the 2005 Four A’s Cabernet Sauvignon based on Beckstoffer ToKalon fruit that stole our hearts. The wine is everything you’d expect it to be and more. Unfortunately, that also applies to the price. At $90, it was double the price of almost every other wine that evening. But compared to the price of a comparable wine from a Napa-based winery, it’s still a kicking deal.
