A bit of rhubarb marks the nose of this otherwise cherry-fruited wine. Despite 14.5% alcohol, it’s not really full bodied, showing creamy tannins but not much depth. Pleasant, soft and easy-drinking. 1 Note

A straightforward hitter, not superlayered and nuanced, but what is here is enjoyable. Pink grapefruit and peach flavors persist through the finish, where there are some nut and mineral accents. Imported by Boutique International. 1 Note

Shows peanutty, brambly aromas, and a smooth texture on the palate. Sour cherry flavors dominate at first, but open to encompass plummy, wheaty notes, too. 1 Note

Nicely blends ripe peaches with wet stones to give a wine that has something for fruit- and rock-lovers alike. It’s medium- to full-bodied, finishing with accents of dried spices. Drink now–2010. 1 Note

This is a medium-bodied, well structured Cabernet that looks set to reward at least 3–4 years of cellaring. It already shows a complex array of flavors, ranging from coffee, leather and earth to plum, blackberry and dried spices. It just needs some time for the firm tannins to soften. 1 Note

Plantagenet’s 2008 Chardonnay is an ambitiously worked effort filled with toasty, nutty notes and hints of vanilla, sweet corn and tropical fruit. Drink this medium-bodied yet round wine over the next year or two. 1 Note

Rather lean, with a slight hint of eucalyptus to the tart plum flavors. Picks up some cedary notes on the finish, but although this medium-bodied, smooth-textured wine is pleasant enough, it could use more complexity and lushness. 1 Note

Though the nose is really sexy, with cinnamon and lush berry aromas, the palate isn’t revealing its best yet. Fruit is sturdy but still tight, and the oak unintegrated. In three years, this score could look stingy. 1 Note

Crisp, racy and minty; I liked this wine more than I generally like HP’s very earthy Scotsdale bottlings. This Shiraz is probably just as earthy as the rest, but is balanced out by eucalyptus, black pepper, curry, black cherry and plum flavors. Medium-sized, with a smooth feel.
