San Valentino is a small winery and was purchased by its current owner, Robert Mascarin in 1990, with its first commercial vintage in 1997. In 2000 Fabrizio Moltard was hired as a wine consultant and the results are evident and this wine had been awarded the prestigious Tre Bicchieri or Three Glass award in the 2004 Gambera Rosso, the Italian wine bible. Hugely intense nose with big, ripe fruits and chocolaty oak with massive, opulent, black cherry fruit, toasty oak flavours. In the mouth, the massive structure with its complicated tannic structure is complimented by the dominating fruit. With a fantastic palate and great persistence this is a wine to be enjoyed.

Cartlidge & Brown Sauvignon Blanc Napa County California
Description: Light straw in color, the wine's aromas are fresh and inviting, with a kiwi, ripe citrus, pineapple and other tropical fruit tones. A smooth palate impression compliments and dovetails with the wine's bright core of fruit. The wine was produced from 2 vineyards, both located in the Kelseyville area of Lake County. The largest portion was farmed organically. All of the wine was stainless-steel fermented at low temperature over a 20-25 day period and was not allowed to undergo malo-lactic fermentation. While no oak was used in the production of the wine; it was left on its lees in the tank for nearly 3 months to add flavor interest and mouth feel. (12 x 75 cl)

Cartlidge & Brown Zinfandel Napa County California
Description: In this Zinfandel, we have tempered a full-throttle, densely textured Sierra Foothills portion with two, more stylish, yet very flavorful,portions from Sonoma County. While the Sierra Foothills lot is all plum jam, leather, and figs; the Sonoma wines are both brimming with raspberry and blackberry flavors. The Mendocino fraction was harvested at a modest 24.0 brix which gave us a well-proportioned wine with fine cherry/blackberry fruit, a touch of briar and peppery tones. Lastly, our Lodi component, harvested very ripe, but in perfect condition, at 26.1 brix, contributes rich color, soft tannins and wonderful roasted black fruit character. (12 x 75 cl)

Cartlidge & Brown Chardonnay Napa County California
Description: Ripe, lush aromas of grapefruit, pineapple, pear, and orange peel are enhanced by clean oak spice and the creaminess of malo-lactic fermentation. The palate is especially full and smooth in texture, with loads of ripe citrus, juicy pear and tangerine fruit. This Chardonnay gave us a very exciting and especially rich style Chardonnay. The blend represents a variety of growing regions and vineyards, for the most part our long term contracts, but some new sources as well.Significant percentages of the blend are provided by Clarksburg and Lodi . These provide wonderful, full textured, baseline Chardonnay character (12 x 75 cl)
