This vintage of Cyamus brings aromas of sweet bing cherry and ripe, lush plum. The opulent sweetness of peak-season, fully-ripe fruit brings about abundant yet soft tannins. The core of this wine is a silky and amiably rich, textured base, with a pure Napa Valley cabernet focus. Flavors of cocoa, currant and sweet tobacco. This rich and chalky wine, devoid of assertive astringencies, drinks well now and should endure for a decade or more. Price good while supply lasts!

Consistently one of Napa Valley's classiest merlots, the 2005 Cakebread Merlot is an especially rich example of the variety. Delicious now, this lavishly flavored, complex Merlot will benefit from another 3-5 years' cellaring.

The Cakebread Cellars 2005 Merlot Napa Valley, blended with 7% Cabernet Sauvignon, is an especially rich example of the variety. It displays ripe blackberry and black plum aromas with secondary scents of vanilla and dark coffee characteristics. Lush and full-bodied, showcasing luscious blackberry, plum and boysenberry flavors that segue into a long finish featuring spiciness, elegant, refined tannins, and crisp underlying acidity. The grapes for the 2005 Merlot come from two classic Napa Valley regions: the cool-climate Carneros district in the southern valley, which delivers bright fruit with crisp acidity, and the mid-valley region, whose warmer temperatures produce riper, richer fruit with juicy berry and plum flavor. Price good while supply lasts!

Twomey Merlot Silver Oak's new small-production Merlot made in limited quantities. It's a fantastic version of what Merlot can achieve in California. Order the new 2004 release now while its available!

Several years ago, the owners of Silver Oak Cellars found the Soda Canyon Ranch vineyard in Napa Valley where Merlot grows with such extraordinary complexity that it calls for a wine of its own. To showcase the brilliance and balance of these grapes, they created Twomey Merlot. The winemaker is Daniel Baron, who also makes the famous Silver Oak Cabernets and this extraordinary wine will have you become a Merlot fan all over again. Price good while supply lasts!

In translation from the Spanish language, Aliento del Sol means “Spirit of the Sun.” This name refers to California’s Spanish history, but more importantly to the cool and sunny climate of California’s coast. The maritime influence of the Pacific Ocean creates morning fog and afternoon winds: an ideal climate for the production of world-class Burgundian varietals.


Bien Nacido Vineyard is famous for growing award-winning Chardonnay. Located in the Santa Maria Valley of Santa Barbara County, Bien Nacido Vineyard is highly influenced by the California coast. The soil is well-drained sandy loam with pieces of decomposed shale.


Aliento del Sol Chardonnay is a luscious, structured wine with intense flavors of ripe pear and green apple. Barrel fermentation contributes nuances of oak spice and honey, while malolactic fermentation creates a round mouthfeel with a supple, creamy texture.
