A beautiful blend of 93% Zinfandel, 5% Petite Sirah, and 2% Carignane, this dark plum/ruby-tinged 2004 boasts a big, sweet perfume of jammy strawberries, kirsch, resin, spice, and pepper. Deep, rich, broad, soft, and seductive with a plush, full-bodied mouthfeel as well as a long finish, it will provide plenty of pleasure over the next 3-4 years.

June issues of Food & Wine and Gourmet magazines highlight Dashe!
05/09/2006

Check out the June 2006 issues of Food and Wine magazine as well as Gourmet magazine, for photos and mentions of Dashe Cellars wines.

The June issue of Food & Wine Magazine is dedicated to barbequed and grilled foods, and our 2003 Dry Creek Zinfandel was called out as one of the best to go with things hot off the grill. We couldn't agree more. This was a great mention of our wines, since they were looking at wines throughout the world and the Dashe zin was one of only three US wines selected for the list. To celebrate, we suggest grilling some nice ribs or a rack of lamb, and enjoying them with a big glass of Dashe zin. (We think the Todd Brothers Old Vine zin is perfect, but we're ok with any of our wines being enjoyed).

The mention of our wines in Gourmet magazine is more visual than anything else--they loved our new WineFind^TM tab on the back of the newly designed Dashe Cellars labels. This tear-off tab on the back label contains all the information a customer needs to find the wine. For example, it contains the name, vineyard, and vintage of the wine, as well as Dashe Cellars contact information to visit the website or call the winery.

These are two world-class magazines, and we're pleased as punch that they're mentioning our wines in the same month. Just shows you that people are starting to recognize that Dashe is one of the heavy-hitters in the Sonoma wine world--even if we are in Oakland!

The Wine Review
04/02/2006

From the Wine Review website, featuring some of the country's most distinguished wine journalists:

Dashe Cellars, Alexander Valley (Sonoma County, California) Zinfandel Todd Brothers Ranch 2002 ($28): Dashe Cellars specializes in small-volume, limited edition Zinfandels. In my admittedly limited experience, the wines tend to be marked by finesse as well as brawn. This particular bottling, made from grapes grown north of the town of Geyserville in the Alexander Valley, shows plenty of muscle. Coming in at 14.8% alcohol, it offers intense black fruit flavors, enhanced by notes of cocoa and coffee. At the same time, it seems almost gentile on the palate, with no trace of heat and nary a rough edge. This is old-vine Zinfandel at its best, a wine that impresses because of balance more than power. 90 Paul Lukacs

Wine Enthousiast - 92 points
"Rich and nuanced, the flavors range from blackberries and blueberries through spiced plums and white chocolate. Best of all is the texture: rich, velvety supple and flattering. It's a big wine but wears its size well." 2000 Todd Brothers Ranch Zinfandel
