Great Wines Steve & Steffanie…

As a wine lover, importer, wholesaler and maker (yes, we are also making wine now - look for upcoming announcements), I don’t pass up an opportunity to taste wines. Two weeks ago we went to Paso Robles on the Central Coast of California for the Harvest Festival and visited some wineries. One of the wineries we visited was the Anglim Winery, our favorite during this trip (http://www.anglimwinery.com/). Steve and Steffanie Anglim are making vineyard specific amazing wines all sourced from Paso Robles. The Zinfandel, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Grenache and Pinot Noir were all amazing.

One of my favorites was the 2005 Cabernet Franc from the Paso Del Sol Vineyards, Paso Robles (btw I opened another bottle last night with roasted chicken, and it was great). This wine has a great nose of cherry and raspberry, a lot of fruit and a big long finish; I am sure the chicken enjoyed it also. Very enjoyable, our guests loved it too. Then again our guests always expect to be served good food and good wine at our home.

Steve and Steffanie are another example of how passion, dedication, hard work and perseverance can produce something that you would be proud of (and very delicious) and make you a success. Keep up the great work Steve and Steffanie…
