2006 Cabernet Sauvignon
Appellation: Santa Barbara County
Winemaker: Joey Tensley
Opulent and intoxicating, Carina Cellars' 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon from the Robert Craig Vineyard is a wealth of flavor and structure. Located in the Howell Mountain region of Napa Valley, this vineyard enjoys cool breezes and plenty of sunshine, and its high elevation leaves it in a class all its own. The fruit it produces is rich with elegant tannins and robust character, resulting in a wine with a nose full of blackberries, currants, and mocha, followed by a spicy touch of mint and anise.

2005 Westerly Syrah
Appellation: Santa Barbara County
Winemaker: Joey Tensley
Instantly fresh and tart, like a homemade berry pie on a summer day, this wine is reminiscent of warm breezes and intoxicating aromas. With an essence of pomegranate that will stain your hands and a mouthfeel bursting with cranberries, blueberries, and raspberries there are plenty of bright fruits to please the senses. A touch of nutmeg on the nose balances the crisp acidity that is characteristic of Westerly Vineyard while a soft structure complements the subtle tannins. Pair with seared duck b...

2006 Morehouse Syrah
Appellation: Santa Barbara County
Winemaker: Joey Tensley
See the girl with the red dress on/She can do the Birdland all night long. Ray Charles’ “lady in red” is not one to compare with this voluptuous Syrah. Her scent precedes her with a bouquet of ripe red raspberries, cassis and a lingering hint of cinnamon and earth. Then you see her, and that initial sight (err sip) reveals first a smokiness that opens up into a palate of black cherries and cranberries, then lingers with a spicy mix of cocoa and clove. An unparalleled wine such as this will...

2006 Tierra Alta Syrah
Appellation: Santa Barbara County
Winemaker: Joey Tensley
Deep in the heart of Sherwood Forest, nestled amongst the lush green trees laden with the sweet aroma of morning dew, the rogue awaits his true love. The fair maiden approaches with an effeminate air of lavender and rosemary, which is instantly met by his bold kiss of blackberries and black cherries. Their matches met, the couple steals away with graceful agility, leaving behind lingering hints of strawberries, olallieberries and a moment of peppery love that will not soon be forgotten. As all t...

Named after the Greek prophetesses known as the Sibyls, who professed the future to all passerbys, the Sibylline lures its audience in with a vibrant bouquet of cassis, blackberries and jasmine. Unable to resist these alluring aromas, you become engaged in a decadent palate of bright fruits and vanilla that culminates in a smoky cranberry and white pepper finish...

2006 Central Coast Viognier
Appellation: Santa Barbara County
Winemaker: Joey Tensley
Like a hummingbird that has found its perfect flower, this Viognier offers all of the traditional flavors one expects from this temperamental grape. Finicky to grow, one must pick the Viognier grape at its peak of ripeness or the balance of acidity and alcohol will be lost in the shuffle of fruitiness and flavor. A Caribbean abyss awaits in every glass, starting with a nose full of orange blossoms and honeysuckles and a palate ripe with apricots and peaches. A hint of pink grapefruit finishes wi...

Like a sun-kissed blond running down the beach, this wine conjures up thoughts of summer flings and sweet honey finishes. With a nose full of apricots, peaches and pears there is no denying that this is a true Rhone style Viognier. A smooth, rounded mouthfeel is followed by a long butterscotch finish reminiscent of the Stolpman Vineyard. The limestone soil and sloping terrain add a touch of minerality to the delicious fruit bowl bounding out of the bottle. Enjoy this wine with a spicy Thai dish ...
