This spicy varietal is a very nice wine for the money. 100% Sangiovese is a well appointed Italian wine that will meld with a variety of entrees and delight guests.
My first bottle purchased through The Cellar Wine Club
Couldn't wait to get home and try it with Hub.
Albarino, the grape was brand new to try,
Tasted like peach and the finish was dry.
The grapes grow near fast flowing Awatere River,
One whiff of this Sauvignon Blanc made us quiver.
Impressed by complexity and outstanding flavor
New Zealand bound, more Crossings to savor!
This Chianti was the perfect choice with salami roll and cheese
Music softly playing, my sweetheart's kisses please.
It brought memory of Tuscany hills with breeze
Thirteen estates across Abruzzo, Italy
Montepulciano vines and olive groves to see.
An excellent choice this red with tomatoes and spice,
We drank the whole bottle, one glass won't suffice!
Winemaker Steve Hovannes created this Merlot
Near the Cascade Range, the grapes grow below.
It's velvety, mellow tones give us a thrill
One day we'll visit his Rattlesnake Hill.
Near the Mokelumne River we long to take a ride,
In the bike saddle always, this perfect blend at our side.
Catch those Pachyderm Brothers, Stars of the Show,
Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot!
Pass this one by, we think its a flop.
It was oxidized when we unscrewed the top.

It was oxidized when we unscrewed the top.
Tho ancient river washed her stones.
And sun it's heat and light had shone.
Into the heart of each tender vine,
The wine produced was not divine.

Grandson Michael, age ten painted the entrance sign.

Head trained and dry farmed by Mother Nature's hands,
Quality versus quantity is what this Vintner commands.
This Cab Franc grape with light, earthy nose,
Tasted of oak and had medium close.
Gold and Silver medals given to few
Presented to Crane Lake for all to view.
"Bring some of our wine home to your nest"
For five bucks or less, the price is the best!
Seduced by the colorful bottle's pretense
Smells of spice and berries excited our sense.
But like a young colt on a frolicking gallop
The finish left too quickly on the palate.
Big, bold aromas of spice and earth fill the nose,
While intense flavors of plum and chocolate demand repose.
Savor the flavor and drink it young,
The tannins are long across the tongue,
Growing up on a pistachio farm, Gary Sitton is nuts for wine.
Solar power and ecofriendly practices intertwine
To bring us Clos du Bois, toasty oak, honeysuckle fine.
I swirled the dark, red liquid like a fighter twirling his gun.
It pulled across my palate with earthy, complex fun.
A long, smooth ride was hoped for, instead got a short, dusty run.
Prepare to climb the Alps for just a sip
Peaches & apples, well worth the trip.
Dry in the finish, these vines near the Rhine,
Aromatic and elegant Riesling divine.
Emerging richness and depth of black cherry,
Brings calm to one’s day when feeling quite harried.
Soft and mellow this Duckhorn Merlot,
Has long-lasting finish, fine flavor bestowed.
