Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The delicate cherry-berry flavors of this lightweight Pinot can’t quite stand up to the oaking it received—the result is a toasty, cedary wine with a slightly hollow midpalate.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a typically snappy New Zealand Sauvignon featuring mildly vegetal aromas along with the required touch of cat pee and grapefruit. Bold lemon and tangerine flavors comprise the citrus palate, which leads into a tangy acid-driven finish full of lemon and grapefruit. Tart, juicy and pleasant.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A heavier style, seeming almost slightly oxidized in its ripe apple and honey flavors. Picks up some interesting mineral and sage notes along the way to a long, spicy finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Smells of vegetable oil and farm-fresh sweet corn still in the husk, but the flavors are more like what you expect from a Riesling: green apples and underripe Asian pears. The finish is a bit metallic, but otherwise features fresh lime zest.
