Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Sweet and nutty, like a chocolate-covered black cherry power bar with roasted almonds. Tasty, if simple, and a good price.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A little sweet, like a vanilla wafer, but with its crisp acidity and tangy pineapple, lime and roasted almond flavors, it’s a good value.

Basic everyday Pinot Noir. It’s dry, with simple cola and cherry flavors, and a grating acidity.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This textbook Paso Cabernet is soft, although fairly tannic, with very ripe flavors of blackberries, chocolate and coffee. It’s simple, but so balanced and clean, it’s just yummy.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Tastes a bit stewed, with raisiny, pruny flavors, but on the plus side, it’s dry and silky and possesses Pinot Noir’s personality.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This simple wine opens with plum sauce and oak aromas, then turns soft, dry and heavy in the mouth. It’s fully dry. Not bad for less demanding occasions.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Lots of oak flavoring on this modestly fruity wine. It’s dryish, with the flavor of canned peaches and vanilla.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Simple and rather sweet, with sour candy flavors of cherries, red currants, vanilla and smoky oak. Easy to drink with everyday fare.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This wine will fly out the door for both its price and quality. Silky, crisp and fruity, it has flavors of limes, pineapples, peaches, green apples, nectarines and flowers, with a stony minerality. The finish is just a little off-dry.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Harsh and thin, with a bitter mouthfeel and minty wintergreen flavors that barely suggest cherries.
