Hall of Fame Pack (4 Bottles)

These four wines have all achieved the high acclaim of receiving a 90 points or higher rating from the prestigious Wine Enthusiast Magazine.  Wine Enthusiast employs a dedicated tasting panel for all American wines so reaching 90 points (which is considered by them as “Excellent & Highly Recommended”) is a great accomplishment.  Amante® is our trademarked, proprietary wine made with Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc and is a signature wine of Falkner Winery. The Syrah is all from Rock Creek Vineyard in the Temecula Valley Appellation and was grown to our specifications.  Because of the grapes used to make each blend all these wines have a structure that allows them to age gracefully and remain delicious over time.
