Impressively flashy, an opulent wine that immediately offers a blast of blackberries, cherries, currants, red licorice and cedar. But it’s quite astringent in tannins. Age this Cabernet-based Bordeaux blend for 5–7 years.

Feels hard in tannins, with firm acidity. Not a wine you want to drink now for this tough astringency. Buried deep down inside is a core of blackberries, currants, minerals and oak. This 100% Cabernet was grown at the 1,800 foot level of Diamond Mountain, whose red wines are notoriously tough in youth. Give it 6–8 years.

Very rich and classically structured, a wine that shows real Merlot personality. The red cherry, cola, red licorice, sandalwood and peppery spice flavors are almost Pinot Noir-like, except for the tannins, which have the weight of Bordeaux. Should develop through 2012.
