Orin Swift - Locations - Tour de Europe
Renowned Napa Valley Winemaker Dave Phinney (the Prisoner, Mercury Head) recently turned his attention to Europe. Travelling around the continent, he's created unique & compelling wines in different countries. Accessing great vineyard sources, Phinney makes rule-breaking wines with unique varietal combinations.
Bold & delicious, each wine offers you a taste of the country of origin from an American winemaking perspective making this the perfect gift for a wine lover, traveler or Euro-phile. $55
Owen Roe - Chapel Block Syrah - Vertical 2008-11
Owen Roe has specially packaged all four vintages of Washington’s iconic Chapel Block Syrah, made from the state’s oldest Syrah vines. As far as owner/winemaker David O’Reilly knows, this is the first retail vertical of this wine available. Every year this wine is lush, dense & has extraordinary intensity while maintaining balance. Savory bacon, pepper & dark fruit flavors highlight all of these wines. You won’t find this anywhere else.
