Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
You may or may not fancy the blue bottle, but the juice inside is a good example of Yakima Valley Riesling. Tea, honey and lemon flavors are co-mingled; and the 5% residual sugar adds sweetness without becoming grainy or cloying.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The reserve is not particularly oaky; rather it puts the emphasis on straightforward, well-rendered green apple fruit flavors, augmented with some balanced flavors of licorice and vanilla.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a whole different critter than the winery’s quaffable ’99. It is tart and resiny, with a strong scent of licorice. The rustic flavors are earthy and rough, with a bitter, alcoholic finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Labeled off dry but with little or no sweetness, this is a unique effort, a rosé style with unusual length and focus. Chill this wine and drink it as an apéritif. It is most unusual—dusty, musky, and concentrated, with a fine finish that resonates with a Grand Marnier note.

Hyatt Black Muscat - 2009

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is quite far along the aging curve, dark and showing brick along the edges. The nose has some interesting brown sugar nuances, plenty of stiff tannins, and mature, secondary fruit aromas. Smooth, ripe and ready to drink.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Well along the maturity curve, this has a butterscotch base and a very soft midpalate, with hints of strawberry fruit and pepper. The finish rolls into a seamless caramel fog, tasty but diffuse.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Full and fleshy, this spicy, fruity Pinot Gris offers fresh fruit and citrus peel flavors, balanced against tangy acidity. The fruit is a mix of interesting flavors – grapefruit, apple and white peach. Good length and a fine value.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Simple but meaty, this 100% Merlot has substantial weight in the midpalate. There are plenty of powerful herbal flavors, yet the grapes seem ripe enough, offering prune and cassis and a little pepper from aging in American oak.

Hyatt Merlot - 2005

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is all Cabernet, aged in American oak, and it delivers dark and tannic flavors suggesting purple plum and black cherry. Tannins are rugged and the oak seems to have a fairly high level of toast, which translates into flavors of coffee grounds and ash.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
While one taster found this wine disturbingly close to vegetal, others were more enthusiastic, calling it soft and expansive. There’s some red fruit on the nose, but the flavors are darker, more akin to blackberry according to this wine’s proponents.
