This is well-priced for the quality in the bottle. Aromas of thoroughly ripe black currant carry a whiff of shoe polish, picking up hints of dried herbs and coffee on the palate. Muscular and large-framed, with crisp acids to support the alcohol and a long, mouthwatering finish.

A solid wine in every respect; there’s nothing to complain about here. Acidity is lively, and fruit runs the crisp, cool spectrum of black cherry, raspberry, even a citric edge. Black pepper and clay hints complete the picture. 310 cases produced. Imported by American Estates Wines, Inc.

The Langhorne Creek region is becoming an interesting source for high-quality wines at reasonable prices. This 60-40 Shiraz-Cab blend features dark plum and cassis fruit flavors framed by oaky notes of toasted coconut and vanilla. It’s lush and ultrasoft in the mouth, making it immediately accessible. Drink now–2008.

A product of a hot, short growing season, Lake Folly’s 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon shows some slightly overripe notes of cola and prune, but also features a high degree of richness allied to a broad, mouthfilling texture. It lacks nuance, but it is a big, flavorful mouthful that ends with hints of coffee and chocolate. Drink now–2010.

Bold and oaky, this Shiraz-Cab blend starts out with notes of sawdust but quickly turns to guava and roses, backed up by earth and cigar. The muscular tannins and sinewy acidity could use two to three years cellaring to integrate better.
