Franciscan 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley $17.95 per bottle
Tasting Notes - Aromas of blackberry, plum, clove, coffee, and cassis with hints of toasty oak and sweet vanilla. On the palate cassis, coffee and toasted oak add to this rich and mouth-filling Cabernet. It has a lingering finish is the result of a well-structured body, full texture with ripe, refined tannins.

Neal Family 2008 Zinfandel Napa Valley $23.95 per bottle
Winmaker Notes - In this very true to character Zinfandel, you’ll find lovely aromas of raspberry liqueur, sweet vanilla oak, and spices coming up from the wine to attract your attention. The wine is full of beautiful fruit: cherry candy, pomegranate and raspberry. The brambly fruit tones combined with the hints of pepper, spice and white chocolate provide complex layers of flavor as the acidity and tannin create a firm but pleasant structure (a result of the co-fermenting with a touch of Petite Syrah).
