Autumn Release
The leaves drifting through the air, the faint smell of smoke rising from chimneys, blankets being pulled out of the closet. The autumn season is upon us, and with it come two new Adobe Road wines, the Adobe Road 2003 Petite Sirah, Russian River Valley, and the 2003 Adobe Road Syrah, Dry Creek Valley, Sorpressa Vineyards. Both pair well with cuddling up around the fireplace, inviting old friends over for dinner or a relaxing calm before the storm of the holiday season.
