Tastes exaggerated in overripe fruit character, with currant and shriveled raisin flavors. Although the wine is totally dry, its dessicated taste leaves much to be desired.

Marked by big, ripe, juicy blackberry, raspberry and currant fruit, this single-vineyard Syrah is saved from simplicity by two things. There are complex notes of bacon, sautéed mushrooms, black pepper and smoky oak, and the tannins are wonderfully rich and ripe. Really delicious. Probably best soon, though, before the fruit fades.

Young, thick in the mouth, and sweet in briary fruit, this Syrah could be a sleeper. It’s really too jammy now, with its wealth of cherries, berries, currants, chocolate and pepper. Unless you like this kind of immediate fruity pleasure, give it a sleep in the cellar. Better after 2009.

Here’s a big, tough, gritty Zinfandel that will please fans of the style. It’s extremely ripe in jammy blackberries, currants, cherry pie filling, anise and pepper, and finishes sweet in fruity richness.

Too porty and tart to earn a higher score. Shows sour cherry candy flavors.

This sound, Port-style wine is made from Zinfandel. It shows briary flavors of wild red and black berries, milk chocolate and Christmas plum pudding, with spices of cinnamon, anise and nutmeg. Could use greater structure, as it’s a bit soft.

Spice, leather and cherry mix with a slightly alcoholic, floral nose in this single-vineyard Zin. The spice joins forces with a little toast and smoke on the palate, which enhance the cherry aromas and flavors, but which also cause the wine to finish with a bite of tannin. This is one that could benefit from another year or two in the rack.
