Four Vines is a very nice California winery. They have a line called Freakshow, and as I know you're a wine lover, I copied this for you from their website. If you can find them, try any - we've had all but the Phoenix and loved them all:
2005 "Heretic" Petite Sirah, Paso Robles
As the creator of Heretic I beseech, implore, demand that you SCREAM at complacency (merlot). CRUSH conformity (cabernet). LIVE a life less ordinary
BE the Heretic
drink REAL wine(eclectic alternative varietals). Old vine Petite Sirah: Big, rich layers and layers of black fruit and spice. REAL LIFE
grab it!
2005 "Anarchy", Central Coast (Syrah, Mourvedre, Zinfandel)
I give you ANARCHY... I wanted to think outside the box and create an unconventional Rhone Blend. The blend is based on Syrah for that velvet mouthfeel and rich fruit, Old Vine Zin for spice and that brambly backbone, and Mourvedre provides some anise and makes the whole blend resonate. If you like the Rhone this wine will blow you away!
2005 "Peasant", Paso Robles (Syrah, Mourvedre, Grenache, Counoise)
This traditional Rhone blend is 32% Syrah, 40% Mourvedre, 17% Grenache, 7% Counnoise, and 4% Tannat. On the nose, smokey black fruit and spice, vanilla crème brulee. On the palate, rich black fruit spice and anise finishing long into sexy vanilla oak. Picture a night with Bridget Bardot wrapped in velvet.
2005 "Loco", Paso Robles, Tempranillo Blend
Tempranillo from the "Tres Cajones Vineyard" in Templeton is blended with Syrah and Grenache. Massive, massive wine. Big fruit, big structure, big balls
in fact three. On the palate, big black fruit that seems to resonate with angst. Huge structure with rich tannins; long, long, long on the mouth; a rich oak finish.
2005 "Phoenix", Paso Robles, Eclectic Red Blend
On the nose rich berry fruit, cinnamon toast and créme brulee... dead sexy. In the mouth big bright red berry fruit leading to strawberry. Excellent structure and shape yet with finesse. Créme brulee and mocha lead into sexy toasted oak on the finish. Don Hofer's Kiler Canyon Vineyard is the star with low yield, hilltop fruit pushed to the max.
