2006 ANCIENT PEAKS CABERNET SAUVIGNON 
 
Dear Wine Friend,
 
Every year at this time I announce my pick for "Best New Discovery Wine of the Year".
I bestow this honor on the wine I judge to have the best "QPR" (Quality to Price Ratio) in the market place. Past winners have included wines from Patassy, Mantra, Melipal, and Obsidian Ridge. Last year, I found no wine worthy, as my good conscience prevailed, and I decided to forego any selection.  
 
2006 was the first vintage for Ancient Peaks Winery, but you might be familiar with the label, if you were one of the lucky ones who purchased its 2006 Zinfandel from me earlier in the year for about $14 a bottle (aka "Daddy's BBQ Wine").  I had sold about 30 cases when the Wine Spectator awarded it 93 points to tie with the 2007 Seghesio as the highest rated Zin of the year (later named the #10 Wine of the Year).  Only 491 cases of the Ancient Peaks Zin were produced, so remaining inventory sold out instantly.
  
After Ancient Peaks' winemaker Mike Sinor sampled me on his 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon from the winery's estate Margarita Vineyard, situated in the southern most corner of the Paso Robles AVA, I knew immediately we had the BARGAIN OF THE YEAR FLYING UNDER THE RADAR!!  Thank goodness it has not been rated yet!
 
List Price is $16.95.  My "HAPPY HOLIDAY" price to assist you with your gift shopping is NOW ONLY $13.75 A BOTTLE!!   
 
SERIOUSLY!  If there is one wine to purchase from me this year....THIS IS IT!
