Over 30 years ago, Tim Murphy, Dale Goode and Dave Ready founded their 3-family partnership in 1985 & launched the brand with two wines: estate grown Fumé Blanc and Chardonnay. Pale lemon with crisp aromas of citrus fruits, blend of 96% Sauvignon Blanc & 4% Semillon. On the palate flavors of crisp fruit apple, peach & melon. Medium finish, lively acidity ending with citrus character. Nice value. — 5 months ago

An exciting collaboration between my favorite singer, Dave Matthews and an award-winning wine maker Sean McKenzie. " This wine pulls you in with notes of smokey berry and a pop of raspberry jam". Very enjoyable and reasonably priced wine — 6 months ago

I am a big fan of David Swift Phinney wines. In 1998 David founded Orin Swift Cellars; Orin is his father’s middle name and Swift is his mother’s maiden name. Aged 10 mos in French oak, 42% new, Ruby with complex aromas of fresh fruits, floral and herb spice, nice mouthfeel. On the palate flavors of raspberry and cherry with cacao and hints of pepper spice. Rich full chewy tannins, well balanced on long finish ending with fruit and earthy spice. — 3 months ago
Best wine from this promo box I got. Hands down the best. Goes down like apple juice, but in good way. Like the way you wish all wine would. Enjoyed this wine while chowing down on a frozen California Pizza Kitchen’s BBQ Chicken Pizza with Charlie’s Angels (2000) playing in the background. Definitely recommend. — 5 months ago

Third release of this Dave Phinney Zin Blend comeback project. Zinfandel (53%), Syrah (23%), Petite Syrah (20%) and Grenache (4%). Sourced from different California regions. Deep purple color. Nose fills with black cherry, grilled herbs, and lavender. Intense cooked cherry, raspberry and blueberry fruit on the pallet with hints of tobacco, black licorice and nutmeg. Smokey finish. Ripe, lush and plump. Exactly what I expected. — 24 days ago
