Clarksburg,
Cali. – March 8, 2005 – Dancing
Coyote Wines (Clarksburg appellation) was awarded a Silver
Medal for its 2003 Petit Sirah and two Bronze Medals
for its 2003 Chenin Blanc and 2003 Cha Cha at the San
Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition last month. The
San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition is one of the
top ten wine competitions in the country for the number
of entries.
2003 Petite Sirah
Petit Sirah is Dancing
Coyote's flagship red and sells for only $13/bottle retail,
which is significantly less than most of the other entries
in the category. This
robust Petite Sirah has concentrated spicy fruit and
a bold rich flavor.
2003
Chenin Blanc
The Clarksburg appellation
is known for producing high quality Chenin Blanc and
Dancing Coyote's 2003 Chenin is no exception. Not
your typical Chenin, this dry wine had aromas of lemon
blossoms and grapefruit with a refreshingly light finish
and retails for $9/bottle.
2003 Cha Cha
Cha Cha is a delightful
blend of Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc aged in French
oak barrels for six months to preserve melon, mango and
grapefruit notes. It also sells
for $9/bottle retail.
