A simple Chardonnay, with a soapy mouthfeel, lemony fruit and a hint of almond in the finish.

Hoodsport Chardonnay - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is already looking rather brown and tired, with soft scents of prune and coffeecake. The fruit is fading, but if you drink quickly it’s a decent quaffer.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Ultraripe blackberries carry a suggestion of briary-brambly stemminess in addition to the jammy fruit flavors. Creamy and supple in the mouth, ending on a soft, easy note.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Tannic and chewy, this is simple, sturdy and solidly in the herbal camp. Flavors are short and the finish leans into veggies.

Hoodsport Cabernet Sauvignon - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The aromas are watery and very faint, suggestive of kiwi, lime and vanilla. Flavors are similarly very light. What the palate gives is alcohol, acidity and sugar, with just the barest trace of citrus.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Light, soda flavors of raspberry and cherry lend modest appeal to this simple Merlot. It’s a straightforward style that finishes with a hint of chocolate.

This starts out with a slightly reduced, tanky smell, then leads into a green, stemmy, tannic wine with a bitter, green-tea finish.
