Soft and fairly sweet in what tastes like residual sugar, this wine has blackberry, cola, clove and vanilla flavors. Everything about it is nice, except that sugary finish. The alcohol level isn’t really a problem in terms of balance.

Drinks too hot for balance at the table, a dry wine with a jalapeño pepper edge to the blackberry jam and mocha flavors. It’s not a bad wine, but this was a very hot vintage and things evidently got out of control.

High in alcohol, frankly sweet, this wine was a victim of the excessive heat of this record hot vintage. Too bad, because the cherry flavors and polished tannins are really nice.

A Bordeaux blend with all five varieties. The vineyard is in the cooler Oak Knoll region. But coolness is relative; the vintage was blazingly hot everywhere, and the wine is almost Porty.
