Anakota Cabernet Sauvignon 2001 750ml $79.99 Helena Dakota Vineyard Knights Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 100% Cabernet Sauvignon "Sourced exclusively from estate-owned vineyards, Anakota is a collection of single vineyard, single varietal, Knights Valley appellation wines that personify the rustic elegance and spirit of rural Sonoma County. The vibrant, dark ruby color of the 2001 vintage is followed by a vivacious cherry and violet nose. The fruit-forward flavors begin with red berry enhanced by a slight hint of wood. Helena Dakota's fruit continues to unfold, with chocolate, coffee and a signature of truffle flavor. The impressive structure of this wine, coupled with soft tannins, lends to a long, refined finish." - Winemaker notes "Pair with hearty meat dishes such as T-bone steak. No decanting necessary. Cellar through 2014." - John Haggard, Sophie's Cellars

Artesa Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2003 750ml $44.99 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon "The deep intense color of the 2003 Artesa Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve portends the pleasure to follow. Intense ripe cassis and blackberry fruit is enveloped in roasted coffee, nutmeg, clove, cinnamon, vanilla, and leather.

The balance of tannins and acid, with the intensely extracted core fruit, will enable this wine to last 10 – 20 years." - Winery notes

Decant for a minimum of one hour." - John Haggard, Sophie's Cellars
