1997 Cabernet Franc Spicy fruit aromas of black cherries, plum, white pepper, tar, coffee and cedar. The mid-palate is smooth and integrated with balancing the sweetness of ripe red fruit flavors and spicy vanilla undertones. $28 per bottle - very limited quantities remaining
		1998 Cabernet Franc The delicate floral notes of blueberries and violets, spicy red fruit aromas of black-cherry, raspberry, redcurrant, coffee bean, cedar, and vanilla. Concentrated blackberry fruit in the mid-palate gives the wine it's direction, and a five percent cabernet sauvignon addition adds backend structure with smooth silky tannin integration. Be prepared to fall in love! $28 per bottle - very limited quantities remaining
		1998 Nebbiolo The nose is spectacularly unique in this wine. It's a sweet combination of rose petal, blood orange, molasses, white chocolate, wood-smoke and red licorice. There's a strong mineral structure to the wine, with bright cherry fruit, and firm acidity. It seems deceptively narrow on entry, and fills the mouth with delicious flavors that build into a balanced finish. $30 per bottle - very limited quantities remaining
		2000 Cabernet Franc This wine is enormous in body, but still maintains its Cabernet Franc character. Aromas of violets, lavender, blueberries, nutmeg, and ripe strawberry fruit. The mid-palate is full and spicy, with firm tannins. Succulent and juicy, this is the perfect steak wine. SOLD OUT
		2000 Cabernet Sauvignon Aromas of black plum, vanilla, bittersweet chocolate, clove, orange peel, sweet tar, and cinnamon. The wine enters the mouth in a silky smooth manner, with ripe black fruits and red licorice flavors impressing the taste buds. The addition of 5% Cabernet Franc enlivens the midpalate with bright acidity. The combination expands the wine into a focused finish of fruit and tannin all wrapped up together.
		2000 Pinot Noir Julia's Vineyard "His pinot has a beautiful freshly crushed berry nose; in the mouth, it's almost a contradiction: very intense with flavor, but at the same time very elegant and stylish. It's rich with dark flavors but is uncommonly supple at this point, although it shows plenty of brooding characteristics for further flavor development. Almost syrah-like in its raciness and depth.” Dennis Schaefer of the Santa Barbara News-Press SOLD OUT
		2000 Pinot Noir Lake Marie Vineyard Listed as one of California's Best Wines of the Year, Limited Production Pinot Noir by Steve Pitcher, The Wine News (Dec/Jan '03-'04). This Pinot is an earthy, with red and black fruit, huge spice, and lots of finesse. It’s more tradionally Burgundian in style than the Julia’s bottling.
		2000 Silver Nebbiolo Aromas of sweet vanilla, ripe plum, redcurrant, cherry, tobacco, and black licorice. Soft, Spicy and exotic ripe strawberry and plum flavors, medium bodied, with a smooth silky feel. Finishes with pure fruit.

		2000 Silver Sangiovese "Quite bold and fruity. The wine is delicious with ripe cherry and plum flavors backed by pretty chocolate and spice notes. Finishes long, with a subtle vanilla touch." -Jeff Morgan, Wine Enthusiast Magazine (2/1/03)

		2001 Nebbiolo 2001 Nebbiolo Santa Barbara County
		2001 Pinot Noir Julia's Vineyard "My favorite was the 2001 Benjamin Silver, a beautiful wine with cherry, spice, and some smokiness. It's very supple, though there's an underlying firm structure. The wine won't be released for at least six months." Laurie Daniel, printed 07/23/03 in San Jose Mercury News and the Monterey Herald. SOLD OUT 2004 LA County Wine Fair Gold Medal Reddish-black hue.

		2001 Pinot Noir Lake Marie Vineyard (selected for Sideways Wine Club) Wonderfully complex and seductive nose of red meat, dark berry, mint and vanilla custard. Ultrasmooth and plush with supple tannins, this complex, deeply flavored Pinot offers layers of vibrant berry-cherry fruit, spice and a touch of white pepper buoyed by crisp acidity. - Steve Pitcher's Boutique Winery West Coast Case, Wine News - 92 - Aug/Sept 2004 Wine News Buyline Panel - 90 "A smooth, complex wine brimming with pretty cherry, anise, spice and herb flavors. A hint of sage and thyme adds finesse to the long finish. Well balanced and finely crafted.      - Wine Enthusiast - 90
		2001 Sangiovese Tepusquet Vineyard "Bright red fruits up front here, with plenty of cherry and strawberry, as well as spice, with a pinch of clove and cigar box. The fresh and ripe fruit flavors make this one so easy to drink right now, plus it's a great match-up for Italian cuisine." - Schaefer on Wine
		2001 Syrah - Mourvedre Larner Vineyard The 2001 shows big ripe black fruit flavors, loads of spice, sweet tar and the wild savage Mourvedre character. It exhibits great depth, extraction and finesse, which is far from typical of such a young vineyard. Enjoy with anything off the grill, as well as dishes with spicy sauces such as penne puttanesca or capriciosa.
		2001 Viognier Vogelzang Vineyard Exotic aromas of peaches, apricots, pineapple, lime blossom and lavender. The body of the wine has a layered richness of mango, honeydew melon, and cantaloupe kept focused by balanced acidity. The textured mineral and spice on the mid-palate finishes dry, in a long, lingering lip-smacking finish. $24 per bottle - very limited quantities remaining
		2002 Pinot Noir Santa Barbara County
		2002 Syrah-Mourvedre Santa Barbara County
		2002 Viognier Vogelzang Vineyard The vines stressed, ripening the fruit perfectly, yielding grapes with incredible balance. This balance of ripe flavors and acid created a deliciously aromatic Viognier. Floral notes of white flowers and orange and lime blossoms, cinnamon, and ripe apricot flavors with a steely mineral note. The richness in the mid-palate comes from full barrel fermentation in seasoned French oak barrels. SOLD OUT
