Even better than the excellent 2008 Acrobat, this ups the alcohol to about 13% and gives the impression of dryness, though there might be a trace of residual sugar. In any event, it’s loaded with pretty pear fruit flavor, lightly dusted with cinnamon spice, and fills the mouth with its body and gentle hint of spritz. A fine summer sipper.

This pleasant Pinot Gris is value priced, and has slightly more residual sugar (.66 percent) and less alcohol (12.2%) than the King Estate bottling. With ripe, fresh, spicy pear flavors and crisp natural acids, it’s a sure-fire food wine.

A new label from King Estate, this forward, fruity, aromatic Pinot Noir offers tart cranberry, raspberry and black cherry, backed with moderate tannins, baking chocolate, caramel and toasted hazelnuts. A lot of flavor for the modest price.

This is dusty, and scented with earth and pine needles. Quite young, it tastes very tart, almost like cranberry juice. With significant breathing time it begins to broaden out and hint at a dusty, chocolate undertone. Good grip and medium body.
