Il Vino di Mese

"Wine of the Month"

Due Palme

Some of our finest old vine cabernet grapes are merged with 20% our estate Merlot to make a full bodied, slightly earthy wine that bodes well with red meat or veal. 

Due Palme is truly our signature wine.

 

Showdown

Our merlot produced from old vines in the Carmel Valley region has a flowery taste with a hint of spiciness.  The label exemplifies the region as it exhibits two cowboys in a "showdown" to see who the best is.

 

Bocce D'Oro

This blend is our finest fruits of the zinfandel, syrah, cabernet, and merlot vines, hence being the "best" or gold of a blended wine.

 

We have an In House Sommelier that selects all our fabulous selections.  If you have a question about any of our wines send an email to: bocce@campodibocce.com

If bocce gains recognition, 2008 would be a qualifying year and in 2009, bocce would be an official game of the "Senior Olympics" in San Francisco, CA. This would go a long way toward getting our sport the notoriety it deserves.  Not just only for the Senior Olympics, but for the Olympics on a National and International stage.
