Mild citrus blossom and a hint of mineral make for an average, quiet nose. The palate is equally standard, with midland white fruit flavors and green melon. Soft, light and short on the finish. Drink now or wait for the 2010.

Nail polish and mulchy fruit don’t do a lot to help the wine along. The palate is sweet, cloying and creamy, with milk chocolate flavors on top of simple plum and cherry. Sweet and a bar-worthy red at best.

Smells good, with berry- dominated aromas. The palate is solid but acidic at the core, with sharpness on the palate that creates a juicy, crisp set of raspberry and plum flavors. Flattens out on the finish, where moderate oak-based butter notes rise up.

Clean and full for starters, with big berry aromas and hints of freshly poured tar as well as minerality. The palate is pure and hits the nail on the head in terms of feel. Flavors of blackberry and plum are dark and generous. Finishes with pepper, espresso and chocolate. Very good wine for the price.

Fiery and clipped on the nose, but then it settles onto red fruits and candy notes. The palate shows good grip and a proper but basic feel, with generic red berry and currant flavors. Solid on the finish; good in a common way.

Medicinal and feral on the nose, then heavy, thick and extremely creamy and soft in the mouth, with bland, flat flavors of milk, carob and vanilla. Short on fruit, acidity and purpose.

Jammy and a bit scratchy on the nose, and also sort of dull and earthy. In the mouth, it’s tangy and citrusy, bordering on sour tasting, with pie cherry, plum and light savory notes. Finishes red and juicy, but with a tomato accent.
