Wine Country Capers – Sebastiani Vineyard and Winery, Sonoma

Sebastiani

Day One, Winery #3
: Sebastiani is one of those solid, standby wine producers which we turn to often when in a pinch.  We honed in on their limited production, Reserve wines.  Solid and dependable, we will be more willing to order these wines in restaurants more often when seeking out a wine to go with our meals. Wines tasted:
Sebastiani

  1. 2004 Alexander Valley Merlot: Tasting notes provided by the winery – The aromas reflect the terrior nicely with Black Cherry and Blackberry fruit.
  2. 2005 Sonoma County Barbera: The aroma is filled with anise, raspberries, vanilla smoke, and tart fuit with a smooth finish.
  3. 2005 Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel: The spice of pepper, cinnamon, vanilla and cocoa melds with a finish of dry cherries.
  4. 2004 Sonoma Valley Syrah: Deeply colored with touches of dried herbs and smoked game meats.

It was at this point that Greg proclaimed: “I believe I’ve reached the point where everything tastes good…”

I just served a Sebastiani Pinot at a dinner party last weekend and everyone raved about it!
