Somewhat herbal and earthy, with peach, apple, citrus, tobacco and spice flavors generously influenced by smoky oak. The creamy texture gives it generosity. Drink now. From the veteran winemaker, Kent Rasmussen.

Rather heavy for a Pinot Noir, and soft, too. The flavors veer toward coffee, cherry and cola. Finishes simple and dry.

A lovely Pinot Noir for drinking now. Light-bodied, dry, crisp and silky, it has complex flavors of cherries, cola, Dr. Pepper, orange zest and peppery spices.

Dry and earthy, this wine has a silky texture and very modest fruit flavors. It’s a nice introductory Pinot Noir but too expensive.

Too dark and heavy for a blush wine, with jammy flavors of cherries, vanilla and spices. Lacks lightness and intricacy.

The winery says this high-alcohol wine, made from Muscat and Verdelho, was aged for ten years in barrels. It has a floral, Sherry taste, with that distinctive yeasty flavor undergirding quite sweet pineapples, oranges, apricots and white chocolate.

Very sweet and honeyed, which makes it easy to drink despite a certain lack of body. Shows rich, exotic flavors of orange tart, tropical fruits, honey, vanilla, crème brûlée and candied ginger. A blend of Muscat and Verdelho.

A lean, crisp, herbal Chardonnay. Lacks richness, but the structure is dry and elegant. Shows tobacco, sage, cedar and citrus fruit flavors.

A nice, easy-drinking Merlot, with herb, blackberry and coffee flavors a a full-bodied mouthfeel. A little rough around the edges, but a pretty good value for a Napa Merlot.
