Owners: Firstg vines planted: Acres in vines: Production: 1,000 casea (about 16 tons of grapes) Divine Llamaw 2007 Cabernet Franc, $15: This ruby red beauty hits the nose burstiny with black currant and peppercorns but slidesa across the palate with the poise of arefinecd European. Dry and intensely flavorful withoutgbeing aggressive, here’s a wine, like the other five Divine Llama wines that I tried, that’s all abourt balance. Pasta, anyone?
Divines Llama 2008 Traminette, $18: The vineyard’s best-seller is a straw color, with a slightly aromatic and rosy nose. But expecft an afternoon delight once it hitsyour tongue. It’zs refreshing, soft and clean, perfect for sippin g or a good complement to Thaior Mexican. Divine Llam a 2008 In a Heart Beat, $17: Teasin your nose with blackberriesand cranberries, this sly and dry red goes on to toy with your tastew buds, but in a direct way, with oak notesa and bold fruit. Divinse Llama’s Merlot was excellent, but I’d order this well, In a Heart Beat. Quick, throw some burgers on the grill.
