Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a decent, everyday red wine. It’s sharp and dry, with blackberry flavors and a hit of winey acidity that calls for meat or cheese.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Racy acidity gives this wine a clean, bracing mouthfeel. Then the fruit kicks in, filled with pineapples, green apples, lemons, limes and pears. But with a sugary finish, it could be drier.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Crisp and citrusy. Treads predictable grounds for California Sauvignon Blanc, but in a superior way. Flatters with pineapple and Meyer lemon flavors that are ultraclean and racy.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Way too sweet for a table wine. Hard to tell if it’s the 16% alcohol or residual sugar, maybe both. Too soft.

Hanna Zinfandel - 2004

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A rich, jammy style that shows off hints of spice, black cherry, blackberry, coffee, chocolate and herb flavors. Licorice dominates the finish, which is slightly astringent but with good length.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Dark, spicy and deeply flavored, this Cabernet is dense and concentrated in blackberry and cassis flavors, with a stony minerality at its core. The fruit is so ripely expansive, it tastes sweet on the finish, yet the wine is utterly dry. It’s good now despite the hard mountain tannins, but should begin to blossom after 2014.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Almost all the oak is new or one year old, and the wine tastes and smells over-oaked, with clove, vanilla and caramel notes dominating. Underneath is a high-alcohol wine, whose cherry and blackberry flavors taste hot, sweet and jammy. Impresses for sheer volume, but is unbalanced, and not going anywhere.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This medium-weight wine offers cassis, bacon and olive on the nose, with herb notes and flavors of currants, black cherries and plums. Finishes oaky, with touches of chocolate and coffee, soft tannins and low acidity.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Blackcurrants and berries. Olives and chocolate. Dry. Lavish smoky oak. Dusty, refined tannins. Velvety smooth mouthfeel. Good stuff, but it could use more life. Higher acidity would help. We’re supposed to rate regardless of price but sticker shock is a fact of life. This is good but not great wine, and seriously overpriced.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
There’s something ponderous about this wine. Yes, it makes all the right moves, from the ripe blackcurrant fruit, the dusty tannins, and the overlay of smoky oak, although it’s kind of soft. But there’s a heaviness that’s hard to ignore.
