Palmina tasting

We went to Wade's Wines in Westlake Village on Saturday afternoon for a tasting of Palmina's wines. One of the owners, Chrystal Clifton (wife of winemaker Steve Clifton) was there pouring the wines.

2004 Palmina Ashley's Vineyard & Thompson Vineyard Santa Babara Pinot Grigio
2003 Palmina Bien Nacido Santa Maria Valley Tocai Fruiliano
2003 Palmina Bianca Santa Barbara White Wine
2005 Palmina Botesea Rosato Rose
2005 Palmina Santa Barbara County Barbera
2005 Palmina Santa Barbara Dolecetto
2000 Palmina Stolpman Vineyard Santa Barbara County Nebbiolo
2003 Palmina Nebbiolo
2005 Palmina Alisos Tuscan Blend
2003 Alder Alisos Vineyard Santa Barbara County Syrah

All of the wines were great, and we ended up buying a bottle of the Alder Syrah and the Palmina Bianca. I would've loved to buy the 2000 Palmina Nebbiolo, but the price was a little high and money is tight :)

It was our first time to Wade's as well ... nice little store with great selection. If it wasn't so far away I'd go more often.
