Easton

House or "H" is Bill Easton's fun, easy drinking everyday table wine; composed of Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon; full flavored with notes of spice and black fruits; perfect for the backyard bbq.

87 PTS CONNOISSEURS' GUIDE. The '03 Easton Estate Zinfandel is deeply fruited and rich; smoother on the palate than expected even in the face of ripe, slightly jammy flavors.

89 PTS WILFRED WONG. Rich and ripe, the almost ostentatious '98 Easton Merlot from California's Shenandoah Valley offers full-bodied textures and a long, almost lusty finish; great with braised meats.

Ripe with spicy blackberry and plum aromas; notes of lush cherry and pepper on the palate; the finish is complex with moderate tannins and well balanced. Great to pair fresh tomato based pastas.

Rich, yet not outrageous, the sophisticated Easton Fiddletown Zinfandel is a solid wine with excellent ripe fruit density; pair with grilled lamb and enjoy one of California's great food/wine matches.

If you like big Zinfandels, then this wine is for you. Ripe blueberry and spiced aromas are echoed on the palate. Firm tannins on the finish, yet very elegant. Only 400 cases produced
