Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Soft, semi-sweet and simple, with jellied raspberry, cherry and blackberry flavors, this high-alcohol (15.7%) wine has a problematic vegetal taste throughout.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
With 16% alcohol, this wine has a vegetal edge to the sugary-sweet chocolate and raspberry flavors. They say the vines are 90 years old.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A full-bodied, slightly sweet style that touts a wellspring of tea, coffee and herb flavors at first, then follows with spicy cherry and blackberry notes. Zippy on the end.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Toasty oak frames this plummy, spicy wine. The flavors extend to cherry and herbs as well and offer a smoky, beefy quality on the finish. This wine is a bit on the zippy side at the end.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A big, jammy style, with plenty of up-front plum, black cherry, blackberry and spice flavors. Coffee and chocolate line the edges, with bright acidity at the end.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Kicks off with vanilla and spice notes. The flavors lean toward ripe cherry and plum, though the oak is quite forward and tends to mask the pretty fruit. Tannins are powdery but ripe.
