Canyon Wind 2001 Cabernet Sauvignon (Grand Valley)
- $20
An impressive product from Colorado winery Canyon Wind. Deep and dark aromas of plums, grilled meat and chocolate are followed by an elegant blend of dark cherry, clove and coffee flavors. Balanced nicely, this wine has some heft but is smooth and easy to drink.

Canyon Wind 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon (Grand Valley)
- $26
Tones of black cherry and cassis are pure and pristine on this fresh, herb-infused Cabernet. Vibrant acidity and soft, furry tannins on the midpalate give way to a finish that’s flecked with spice and menthol.

Canyon Wind 2006 IV Red (Grand Valley)
- $100
While ripe with black fruit and hints of caramel, forest bramble and black pepper, this Bordeaux-style blend (with a hefty dose of Petit Verdot) boasts an elegant structure and clean acidity with just a hint of green on the finish.

Canyon Wind 2002 Merlot (Grand Valley)
- $18
An appealing smoked sausage and clove spice nose on this wine leads to a flavorful, though slightly dry, array of berries, plum and smoke on the palate. Impressive structure and complexity but the wine should probably age 2–5 years for maximum enjoyment and to take off that tannic edge

Canyon Wind 2009 47-Ten Red (Grand Valley)
- $13
Sweet and savory are juxtaposed on this bold, full-bodied Red Blend. Plush, sweet black fruit and violet petals contrast the briney, soy sauce notes and big, chunky tannins that drive to a finish that ends just a tad hot.

Canyon Wind 2004 Chardonnay (Grand Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $15
Kudos to Colorado winemaker Canyon Wind Cellars for making wine in an area not known for grapes, and on first pass, this seems a rather friendly, accessible Chardonnay. A floral nose of pear and apricot is followed by spice and lemon on the palate. There is also oak to weigh down the zip. But it's a bit wiry and lacks dimension.

Canyon Wind 2006 Sauvignon Blanc (Grand Valley)
- $15
Pleasant aromas and flavors of grass, grapefruit and flowers recommend this likeable wine from the Grand Valley appellation of Colorado. Paired with seafood or Asian cuisine, the wine is an interesting alternative for everyday sipping.

Canyon Wind 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon (Grand Valley)
- $25
Initially a bit funky, this wine opened up to offer pretty cassis and fresh blackberry fruit couched in a bed of medium acid and soft tannins. Mushroom and plum tones on the finish hang around for just a bit. Drink up.
