2008
Sauvignon Blanc/ Semmillon $19.90 300 cases produced
The second year for this wine produced from the same
vineyard owned by former fisherman Bruce Iverson. A passionate
organic grower, Bruce is so close to his vines I'm surprised he has not
named every vine. Again a "mid-Atlantic" wine. The fruit of
wines produced in North America with some of the austarity and acidity
of an old world wine. "My Oyster Wine" pairs well with
other rich seafood as well.
2007 Cabernet Franc
$24.90 300 cases produced
The 2007 version of the
Cabernet Franc is consistant with past vintages. For those of you
who have not had the opportunity to taste my Cabernet Franc, now is the
time.
2007
Merlot
$24.90
200 cases
produced
Again a portion of my Merlot
was bottled as a varietal. This wine is for the persistant Merlot
fan that thought sideways was a tad narrow minded. An easy wine
to drink, this wine pairs nicely with lighter meats and medium cheeses.
2007 Two Hoots
(Cabernet/Merlot) $24.90
450 cases produced
Every year at least one pair
of Great Horned Owls returns to the "oasis" at the north end of the
Fairview Estate. The hooting carries on for a good portion of the
summer with the addition of loud screeching from the baby owls in late
spring. In 2008 we were lucky to witness the birth of two chicks
(the Two Hoots).
