Two and a Half Stars
- SF Chronicle Wine Review, January 2006
2003 Roux Petite Sirah
"This wine tastes balanced and bright with crisp acidity. Racy raspberry, blackberry and cassis flavors are enhanced by black peppercorn, black tea, mocha and toast notes. If Petite Sirah can be pretty, this is it. " Click here for more details.

2002 Felicia Old Vine Zinfandel
"Lush and powerful, yet balanced and elegant too. This wine
offers a core of rich, ripe plum, black cherry, blackberry, chocolate
and spice flavors that course gracefully along the palate. It's
plush, full-blown and long, with a velvety finish."

2001 Felicia Old Vine Zinfandel
"Full, rich and bright, this wine serves up a complex array
of raspberry, cranberry, chocolate, spice, coffee and herbs. A lush
and hedonistic expression of Napa Valley old-vine Zin that covers
the palate in a velvety embrace. It's long, smooth and packed with
character to the very end." — J.M. (9/1/2004)

2001 Gianna Zinfandel
"This wine carries its zippy acidity well. The bright edge
highlights a dense core of cherry, raspberry and cola flavors, all
framed in toasty oak with hints of vanilla. Spice and herb notes
add interest, while the finish is long and lush." — J.M.
