Wine Spies gives Humboldt Sparkle!

Good morning all ... for those who missed it, and it seems a number did with the holiday and a lot of people understandably out of town or the office for Xmas ... we wanted to share with you some comments and notes from The Wine Spies' Agent Sparkle about our cabernet, Humboldt:

I hereby declare that this is my favorite Red wine of the year! While I am usually a bubbly girl (sparkling wines are my specialty), I really do appreciate great red wines. I have been searching for a great ‘go-to’ wine all year and am so pleased to have found it in this wonderfully rich and lusciously layered Cab from Pengwine. When we first featured this winery about one month ago, I was not overtaken by that wine. In my not-so-humble opinion, this offering is far better. This wine is so full of character – and is so wonderfully balanced with aromatics and flavors – that I am officially smitten. Way to sway a girls favor, Pengwine!



Her mission report summary: Agent Red and the boys were right! This beautiful Cabernet Sauvignon is perfect, and our friends at Pengwine have managed to create a wine that I absolutely LOVE. This is not a subtle wine, nor is it completely over the top as some Chilean wines I have tried tended to be. Here I find refinement and great fun, in a wine that delivers powerful aromatics and layers of flavor.

This wine gets my personal endorsement as the best red wine of 2007!

PengWine blows away the competition

Hey all ...

Chris was just at a dinner party on Monday in Seattle, and the response for PengWine was amazing!

"There were like 20 wines open at this thing," Chris says, "and people were holding PengWine bottles upside down trying to get the LAST drop out of them before other wines."

The fun part ... nobody there knew that Chris was the owner of the wine.

Other comments he overheard included raves, such as people saying that PengWine blew away the Washington wines that were being poured.

Pretty cool, huh?
