2007 AFFINITY
PASO ROBLES
Our first offering is a rich, seductive blend that was handcrafted from
select barrels from our Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot programs. (Although, I
will admit, 2 of those barrels of Merlot were surrendered to a good friend for
2 barrels of his acclaimed Zinfandel…We just don’t grow a Zin; yet!) What
resulted is something beautiful that you are naturally drawn to! The ‘o5
Affinity is a harmonious blend of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and
20% Zinfandel. The bottle also exhibits our new label, a more sophisticated,
elegant and even sexier look for RiverStar. Continuous improvement…to
personify the character, elegance and style of our vineyards!
Affinity is a classic showing of the precision, balance, concentration and
finesse that exemplify Paso Robles at its best! Firm, yet offering a tasty mix
of blueberry, with zesty wildberry and cherry cola notes with lots of spice to
accentuate the floral scents on top, providing excellent structure, depth and
range of flavors. The ending is lengthy, with a firm flavorful band of
tannins.

2004 SYRAH
PASO ROBLES
We did not filter this wine in fear that this would rob it of its soul and character and in not doing so the grapes gave up the ghost! What resulted is super depth of fruit, excellent ripeness and a rich aromatic dimension to accompany the classic flavor profiles with deep, dark, gorgeous color! There are smoky, toasty, plum and cherry aromas with peppery, leathery spicy flavors with chewy tannins. The ripe fruit is nicely layered on the palate…smooth and easy. The full blown, highly expressive winemaking style allows for the intensity, structure, depth and ageability of the wine. Aussie’s prefer Grilled Kangaroo with their Shiraz, as they call Syrah, Down Under but we would recommend a thick grilled peppery Steak. The wines structure and rich, saturated berried fruit makes for a powerful juxtaposition to the richness and char of the Steak. The primal, earthy flavors of our Syrah also beg for Grilled Lamb, Duck or Venison with New Potatoes. How about a rare cut of juicy Prime Rib with lots of crusty bread? Bon Appetite!

2005 MERLOT
PASO ROBLES
(49 cases produced) This vintage produced thick-skinned grapes that give concentrated flavors, inky color and extracted tannins which distinguish the vineyard. There is a flamboyant nose of blackberries, black cherries, cocoa and spices. The lush full-bodied flavors of the fruit are enhanced by months of careful oak barrel aging which allow for sweet vanilla and spicy oak nuances. You’ll find this wine voluptuously textured, juicy, with well-integrated tannins and is a joy to drink! The mouth feel is relatively soft but fleshy and round on the palate.
You can enjoy this wine with your favorite meats, hearty pastas or herb rich dishes. It is a celebration worthy to be poured at any occasion…perfect for Party or Picnic! The full-bodied flavors will stand up to all grilled meats, kabobs, herb crusted roast turkey and stuffed veal chops. Don’t limit yourself, try our Merlot with Grilled Salmon with Soy or your favorite vegetarian fare…Yummy with Grilled Portobello Mushrooms!
