We are self described "warehouse warriors". Terremoto Cellars will be another of the growing "no tasting room" wineries. In an effort to not lose our focus of creating earth moving wines, we have chosen an industrial location for our winemaking facility. The winery is nestled in amongst other commercial ventures, seamlessly blending into its surroundings without a sign to give away what happens behind its locked doors. Most of the winemaking work happens at wee hours of the morning and night. (Did we mention we have "day jobs"?) A non-conventional winery with non-conventional hours. Unless you happen to catch a glimpse of a grape or barrel, it is unlikely you would ever know what we are up to. Suffice to say, we like it that way. | Novato, CA Phone: (415) 377-5625 Website: http://www.terremotocellars.net Appellation: San Francisco Bay |

2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Asbill Vineyard - Oak Knoll District of Napa Valle
Our youthful Cabernet Sauvignon is a multi-dimensional masterpiece. It is dark, ripe, rich and packed with black cherry, currant and smoky-spiced oak. It entices with an intoxica ... moreting fruit forward nose and finishes with firm but well integrated tannins. It is very approachable now, but can easily be cellared for years to come if you can stand to do it. This wine pairs well with meaty and earthy dishes, yet provides an earth moving experience on its own.

Syrah

2005 Syrah Windsor Oaks Vineyard - Chalk Hill
This bold inky Syrah doesn’t hold back. This wine carries with it a lot of dark fruit, blackberry, plums and hints of vanilla. The tannins are well rounded and contribute a nic ... moree mouthfeel with a slight hint of toasty oak showcasing the fruit forward nature of this Syrah. Delicious to enjoy now and certainly cellar worthy, if you are able to hold back after you enjoy this earth moving wine.
