Rich in acids, ripe in fruit and balanced, with a silky texture, this is a very pretty Pinot Noir for drinking now. It has ripe, dry flavors of wild forest raspberries and cherries, bacon, sautéed mushrooms and cola.

Acidity, minerals and lower alcohol combine to make Gordon’s ’08 far superior to the 2007. There’s a bracing steeliness to the pineapple and green apple fruit, which is cleansed with racy acidity. The oak is a little strong, but this is a lovely, complex Carneros Chardonnay to drink now.

Sugary sweet in caramelized oak, pineapple jam and green apple flavors. Acidity fortunately provides some balance, but this is still is a pretty obvious wine meant to appeal to popular tastes.

A clumsy wine at this, or any, price. It’s over-extracted in jammy cherry and red currant fruit and over-oaked, and there’s an overripe, raisiny sharpness throughout.

Rich blackberry purée, blueberry jam, raspberry pie, cherry tart and cedar flavors in this Cab. Rather direct in its appeal, and a bit too sweet, but its solid New World style will appeal to some.

Fruity and oaky and very soft, a wine made in the modern cult style meant to appeal to everybody. Tastes like an explosion in a jelly factory. Drink now.
