August 5, 2010 Opening Reception The Macallan 10 Year Old as a ‘Rob Roy’ cocktail TASTING NOTES: Color: Pale Straw; Nose: Complex, with hints of
fresh fruit and heather honey; Palate: Soft, with a maltiness, balanced with oak and fruit. 'Rob Roy' First Course 2008 Oak Cliff Cellars Napa Valley Chardonnay WINEMAKER NOTES:
Not your typical oaked and buttery Chardonnay, this wine is pure fruit: crisp,
refreshing with melons, pear and green apple in the mouth. Try this versatile white wine with your favorite appetizers or snacks, salad, fish, chicken and cheese...or a great wine just for a nice refresher after work or
at the beginning of any party or dinner. *Only 56 cases made. Paired With Bob’s
SHRIMP PLATTER -
cocktail, remoulade and fried Second Course 2008 Oak Cliff Cellars Napa
Valley Chardonnay Paired With Bob’s CAESER
SALAD Third Course 2008 Oak Cliff Cellars Firebrick Reserve Zinfandel WINEMAKERS NOTES: This Zinfandel is all
about elegance, spice and finesse. The perfect wine with almost any meal, this red wine will pair very well with red and white meats without overpowering. As your meal progresses, the flavor profile of this Zinfandel
will continue to evolve in the glass -- bringing out new dimensions and tastes with every sip! *Only 64 cases made. Paired With a Choice of
2008 Lake County Petite Sirah, Oak Cliff Cellars WINEMAKER’S NOTES: If you liked the '07 Petite Sirah, you'll fall head over heels with the '08! This plummy, deep purple wine has seductive nose of violets and a delicious flavor profile of boysenberries, blueberries and blackberries -- with dark chocolate notes on the finish. This wine is big enough to stand up to pork, game or beef, but soft enough to pair with salmon, chocolate or mixed berries. Still a very young wine, our '08 Petite Sirah will age for several years and only get more velvety in the process. Only 71 cases made. We think this is the wine for chocolate. Distinct floral and red fruit aromas meld in to subtle coffee and dark chocolate flavors which linger on the finish. Beautiful! Paired with Bob’s Traditional CHOCOLATE CAKE with Chocolate Fudge Frosting
Final Note The Macallan 18 Years Old TASTING NOTES:
Color: Light Mahogany; Best served neat.
