Napa Valley Quilt Cabernet Sauvignon | 2019

The Napa Valley Quilt makes the perfect gift for the wine lover that enjoys wine with soft velvety tannins with red and black fruits. This wine is deliciously ripe with blackberry aroma and highly concentrated with rich berries and toasty oak. Ending with a soft lingering finish. Quilt Wines are the work of fifth-generation winemaker, Joe Wagner. See his tasting notes HERE.

Celani Family Vineyards Vicenza Rose | Napa Valley California | 2021

A delicious wine with fresh cranberries and strawberries on the nose, exhibiting bell pepper cherry sauce and black current on the palate. A great compliment with ham or Turkey. Enjoy the tasting notes from winemaker Mark Herold, HERE.

DK Convene Pinot Noir | Sonoma Coast | 2019

DK Convene’s Pinot Noir is one of my personal favorite wines of the season filled with delicate cherry and raspberries on the nose followed by strawberries and blueberries on the palate lingering on the finish with a touch of plum.

The Christmas vibe is upon us, which means we need some holiday wine for the upcoming family gatherings. What better way to toast to the season than with these great Holiday wine treats.

Happy Holidays!

Cheers,

Simone Peterson
