Five generations of the Phillips family have worked the land and developed these beautiful wines, dating all the way back to the Civil War era. Michael and David Phillips are the brothers who now run the vineyards, develop the wines, design the labels and even write the poetry on the back label (read the Seven Deadly Zins back label for insight on how they related the Seven Sins from their Catholic school upbringing to the seven Old Vine Zinfandels blended in their wine.) Michael and David have developed a series of really fun, yet seriously delicious wines. Here are two of our favorites:
SEVEN DEADLY ZINS
A sinful blend indeed! This is the flagship Zinfandel from Michael David. The two Phillips brothers wanted to find and develop a blended Zin so captivating that nobody could resist it. In the end, Seven Old Vine Zinfandel vineyards were chosen for their superior fruit and when you taste it, you are rewarded with sweet raspberry pie notes, vanilla, blueberry, cinnamon, and black pepper. This is one rich, full-bodied, opulent, luscious Zinfandel! A journey thru Seven Delicious Delights, in a word, yummy!

PETITE PETIT
We loved this wine so much, that Keoni the Top Chef raved about it last month and we nearly sold out at some locations! Yes, it is hard to ignore the elephant in the room. Like elephants whose size is imposing, Petite Petit is large! Keoni loves it, and I would agree that it’s a joyous explosion of color and fun!
This is a full-bodied, whopper style of wine loaded with pure black fruit and vanilla flavors that coat the palate with purple pleasure. Plus, this is the perfect wine to enjoy with a big juicy hamburger! A summertime barbecue celebration of richness and flavor!
Michael David Winery is known for being innovative, making great wine and having fun. Invite these wines to your next party.
Look for them both on sale today and tomorrow at a really hot price!
Cheers!
