... and the warmest of winters from those of us at the Garsa Winery.  In the Sierra Foothills, this means ski season of course, and Garsa offers the perfect apris ski wines not only for those Sierra evenings, but also to take home to help elevate those more mundane occasions.

We have just released our 2006 Calaveras County Tempranillo (the 2004 is now completely sold out) and our first ever Garsa Grenache and Garsa Rousanne continue to sell briskly in both Murphys and Clarksburg.  The 2006 Tempranillo has just received a "top three" rating from the tasting panel at Snooth.com (the largest integrated wine site in the world).  Pitted against Tempranillos from all over the world (including its home in Spain), Garsa was singled out - along with an Amador Tempranillo - as the best American offerings.  Order quickly, as only 92 cases were produced.

Here's wishing you a safe and warm February!
