Let me show you how this is done. First thing, hold the glass up and examine the wine against the light. You're looking for color and clarity. Just, get a sense of it. OK? Uhh, thick? Thin? Watery? Syrupy? OK? Alright. Now, tip it. What you're doing here is checking for color density as it thins out towards the rim. Uhh, that's gonna tell you how old it is, among other things. It's usually more important with reds. OK? Now, stick your nose in it. Don't be shy, really get your nose in there. Mmm... a little citrus... maybe some strawberry...

This is one of the really small “Garagistes”  producers of California Page/Revolver, I will never forget the first tasting with Bryan Page when after tasting each wine he would tell me he made 95 cases of this one and 120 cases of that one,  each wine was very good and to make such a tiny amount of them I just could not believe that he could make a serious living but he has been at it for 20 years now!!

Join us as we welcome Bryan to South Florida for a tasting of his newest releases here at Wine Watch.  There are only 16 spaces available for this event and the fee is $75+ tax.  For reservations call 954-523-9463 or e-mail andy@winewatch.com.

The idea of creating Page Wine Cellars happened in the summer of 1996. The opportunity opened up for Bryan Page to tour many Chateaus throughout the Bordeaux region, falling in love with their incredible wines. After his culinary tour in Europe ended, he returned home to California. He simultaneously worked at several restaurants ‘saving every penny’, while apprenticing at a few Napa Valley wineries, with the goal and desire of making his own wines, under his own label.

In 1997 Page Wine Cellars officially began. The first vintage of Proprietary Red produced only 36 cases. His journey from culinary school student and server, to chef and Sommelier, then onto winemaker had begun.

This is not just a winery where a “consultant” winemaker produces the wines then the family name is labeled on the bottle. Page Wine Cellars is about brothers Bryan and Chris Page, hands on crafting our unique and remarkable wines.

Our Wine Style…

The term “Garagistes” refers to a group of innovative winemakers in the Bordeaux region that produce “Vins de Garage” or “garage wine”.

In this tradition, we produce our wines in our warehouse, concentrating on the wine and not the surroundings. For our wine this means an elegant mouth feel with edgy flavor profiles. This “elegance with an edge” style shines thru with the cult following of our Revolver Cabernet Franc “The Fury” and our Revolver “The Stash”, a limited Cabernet Sauvignon.
