“Following the success of the organic white wine we released one year ago, we are pleased to release the
second wine from CottonWood Creek Cellars, a 2010 red table wine made from organic grapes,” said Joey Franzia
of Panther Rock Wine Company, “There is high consumer demand for red wine. So, we have worked hard to
produce the lowest priced certified organic wines available. As a company we are proud of the quality of our wines
which over deliver for the price.”
Winemaker John Allbaugh said, “This is a classic red wine with a dark ruby color. Fresh fruit is present with
hints of berries. Silky tannins are accompanied by a sweet, subtle amount of toasted oak. The nuanced flavors of
this wine never stop, not even after the long, luscious finish.”
Just as Earth Day was established in 1970 to inspire awareness and appreciation for the earth’s
environment, CottonWood Creek Cellars makes environmentally-friendly wines created to compliment the earth’s
bounty.
