But we actually started Saturday's wine touring at Treanna.  This small winery actually produces four labels: Treana, Liberty School, Austin Hope, and Candor. (If you’re looking for entertainment, the url for the Candor label is http://candorwines.com/truth.html.) These are all labels of the Hope Family, producing wine in Paso Robles for over 30 years (according to the web site, anyway).  Most of their wines were bigger than we like (more oak, more tannins, need five years in the cellar).  But we bought a couple of bottles of the Candor Zinfandel Lot 1 ($20).  My notes say spice and blackberry on the palate.  Also needs about a year aging.  We can wait that long.
