Chardonnay

2006 Unleashed Chardonnay
Sonoma County
Nothing fancy here. Our Unleashed is an Unwooded Chardonnay. Fresh, juicy fruit aromas and flavors of peaches, pears and apples, with a creamy and zingy finish. The fruit “jumps ... moreout of the glass”… like a dog leaping off of a label! Serving suggestion is Brenda’s favorite - chill it and kill it.

Zinfandel

2005 Portrait of a Mutt Zinfandel
Sonoma County
The wine that “made” Mutt Lynch Winery and 2005 is one of our best yet, winning a GOLD MEDAL at the San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition. Portrait of a Mutt is the perfect ... morename for our Zinfandel, as it blends a small amount of spiciy Carignane fruit into our jammy Zinfandel. As the label says, “Just because I’m not pedigreed doesn’t mean I’m not a good dog!”

Merlot
|
2005 Merlot Over and Play Dead
Sonoma County
A GOLD MEDAL winner at both the Los Angeles and San Francisco Internationl Wine Competitions. Better yet... a Merlot Brenda likes to drink. In other words, this is not a wimpy Merl ... moreot. Full, rich, ripe fruit with a hint of chocolate – Brenda always opens a bottle when barbequing her butter flied leg of lamb.

Zinfandel
|
2005 Canis Major Zinfandel
Perotti Vineyard
This wine received a GOLD MEDAL at our Sonoma County Harvest Fair, our “Oscars”. Barrel aged in 100% French oak, with classic jammy ripe berry fruit, it’s a great gift for Zi ... moren-fanatics.

Syrah
|
2004 Canis Major Syrah
Unti Vineyard
This wine received a DOUBLE GOLD MEDAL at our Sonoma County Harvest Fair, our “Oscars”. Of all our Canis Major wines, this one has a “wild” side. It’s our Marilyn Monroe ... morewine, seductive and sexy, full and voluptuous.

Cabernet Sauvignon
|
2004 Canis Major Cabernet Sauvignon
Perotti Vineyard
Always our “Big Dog” among Canis Major wines - bigger, riper, richer. Brenda doesn’t hold back at all in making this wine. 100% French Oak barrels combine with intense, lush ... moreCabernet fruit. Definitely not for the faint of heart.

Petite Sirah

2005 Canis Major Petite Sirah
Dry Creek Valley
Petite Sirah is the newest addition to our Canis Major wines. Petite Sirah is often called "pets" by grapegrowers; we like the irony of producing a wine from a grape called "pets"!
