* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

Absolutely lovely. Throws off complex cherry, rhubarb, cola and oak aromas, and then turns into the quintessence of cherry flavor, rich yet airy and lilting. Best consumed in its flashy, seductive youth.

A gorgeous Pinot Noir, dry and crisp in cool-climate acidity, with a silky texture housing complex cherry and raspberry fruit flavors. Oak adds lush vanilla and toast notes. Really lovely now, and should develop over the next six years.

Extraordinarily rich and ripe, showing sweet raspberry and cherry fruit flavors, enhanced with the vanilla and buttered toast of oak barrels. Brilliant acidity and wonderfully soft tannins make this Pinot instantly drinkable, yet it should age over the next 6–8 years.

Lots of zesty, crunchy acidity marks this wine, giving it a brisk mouthfeel. Beyond that clean dryness, you’ll find complex raspberry fruit flavors, enhanced with sweet oak and vanilla. Drink this vineyard-blended, elegant wine now.

This is one of the best rosés in California. It’s totally dry, crisply acidic and delicately structured, with subtle, complex flavors that run from cherries, cranberries and rose petals to dried herbs and peppery Asian spice. Hats off to consulting winemaker Paul Hobbs for mastering the essence of rosé.

A really beautiful wine, softly crisp and silky, with gorgeously ripe flavors. Raspberries and cherries that were baked into a pie flood the palate, accented with sweet vanilla, toast and cinnamon spices. The acidity is clean, vibrant and perfect. Drink now and over the next six years.

An interesting wine. The tomato edge it shows would normally be considered a sign of unripeness, but in this case it’s a delicious Heirloom variety. Conjoined with black cherries, cola and exotic mulberries, dusted with rich, Indian spices, and finished with sweet oak. Don’t drink this dry, tannic and complex young wine now. It needs 5–6 years in the cellar, and could go the distance.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

Elegant in construction, with fine acidity and a sleek mouthfeel. What really stars are the flavors. Massive in raspberry and cherry pie filling, cola and pomegranates, with lots of peppery spices and a smoky oak envelope. Should develop bottle complexity over the next six years.

Brilliant acidity, dryness and tangy minerality mark this Chardonnay. The grapes come from the estate vineyard in the cool, southern part of the valley. Shows tangy, steel-tinged flavors of pineapples, oranges and honeysuckle, with an extraordinary richness that finishes dry.

Superrich in pineapple, lime, kiwi and tropical fruit flavors, this lovely Chardonnay has a rich, balanced overlay of sweet, smoky oak. A blend of Lynmar’s various vineyards, the wine’s brisk acidity and minerality shine through, making the richness bright and clean. A brilliant Chardonnay to drink now.
