The 1993 Napa Valley Merlot is wonderfully Duckhorn, with lots of ripe fruit flavors, great balance and concentration and a delicious, lingering finish. ($24.00- 6 or more $22.50)
The 1994 Sauvignon Blanc is, once again, crisp and fresh with a pleasant hint of herbaceousness. It is as delightful to drink as any Sauvignon Blanc Duckhorn has ever produced. ($11.50- 6 or more $10.35)

Hot Wines & New Releases

New Wines From Richard Graff- The Founder of Chalone!

Produced and bottled in very small amounts by Richard Graff, the founder of Chalone Vineyards, from his tiny vineyard adjacent to Chalone's. To quote Richard, 'I insist upon the traditional techniques for raising wine which entail minimal handling, so that what comes from the vineyard is carried intact through fermentation and aging, clarification and bottling, into the wine glass.

The Wine Association
of the Duke of Bourbon

is pleased to announce two exciting events:

Outstanding Cabernet Sauvignon
from Malibu?

You Bet! 1992 Rosenthal-The Malibu Estate

We are thrilled to be able to offer the second vintage of this fantastic wine with its fascinating story.
George and Karen Rosenthal are the owners of this small, well-tended vineyard located off Kanan Road on the way to the Beach in Malibu, California. Their vineyard is on a hillside just above the traditional marine layer that is the usual visitor each night during the growing season. Consequently, the growing conditions are similar to those of the Napa Valley, which are ideal for Cabernet Sauvignon.
The wine is crafted by Bruno d'Alfonso at the famed Sanford Winery in Buellton, California. It has an enormous amount of fruit with great structure and a wonderfully long finish. If you didn't know it was from Malibu, you'd swear you were drinking top-notch Cabernet from the Napa Valley. It truly is that good. $21.00- Duke's Special- 6 or more bottles $18.99
