There’s a succulent richness to this Burgundian-inspired Chard that makes it delicious. It’s bright in acids, the main ingredient needed to balance the opulent pineapple, peach, yellow apricot vanilla custard and smoky oak flavors. Creamy and dry, it provides pleasure all the way through.

Dry and rather tough in tannins, this may be one to cellar. It shows bitter cherryskin, cola and tobacco flavors, enhanced with oak, in a smooth, complex texture. Could do interesting things over the next five years, but who knows? The appellation, on a high plateau of coastal Mendocino County, has yet to define itself.

Technically, the wine is too soft and hot for balance, but it’s so luscious, so enjoyable, you can’t help but like it. The flavors just swarm all over the palate, offering cherries, blueberries, cola, violets, leather, bacon, carob and Asian spices, and the finish is satisfyingly complex and dry.

A sweet style, with spicy plum, black cherry, spice and herb flavors. Tangy cinnamon and cedar notes are prominent on the finish.

Classic warm-climate Zin, showing a soft, velvety texture housing fruity-ripe flavors of blackberries, cherries, melted milk chocolate, black pepper, anise and cinnamon. Easy to drink because it’s so tasty.
