Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Full and overly chunky, but ultimately off-kilter. Too sweet and gummy.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Consistent with the mediocre 2006. This amounts to generic red wine in a catchy, youthful package. It offers basic raspberry and strawberry aromas and flavors along with scouring acidity. It’s bouncy and free-flowing, but hardly what we’d call an elevated premium wine.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Touches of cola, cherry and berry work the jammy bouquet, and the reasonably sturdy body offers up flavors of berry backed by vanilla. There’s ample grab and pretty good balance to this fresh wine.

Hat in the Ring Shiraz - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Aromas of talcum powder, tangerine and melon are decent, while the palate offers round and mildly edgy citrus and passion fruit. Finishes with some zest and pink grapefruit. A legit but limited wine; drink now.

Hat in the Ring Sauvignon Blanc - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Very sweet at first, with aromas of cherry cough drop and crème de cassis. Turns cheesy with air, and once the palate arrives be prepared for tangy pie cherry flavors in front of a starchy, lean finish. Offers the basics but nothing more.
