An excellent value in drink-now Cabernet, Madison Ridge’s 2009 Lot 1232 combines hints of mocha, dried herbs and cherries into a medium- to full-bodied red featuring supple tannins that turn slightly dusty on the finish. Pair with steaks and burgers over the next year or so.

Ripe indeed, with confectioner’s sugar, vanilla ice cream and honey aromas that lead to a light-to-medium-bodied palate with some disjointed oak notes and a slightly oily texture. Short but pleasant finish of figs and candied lemons. Drink up.

This is a slightly confected, fruit-forward, jammy wine that will undoubtedly please many consumers. Its medium weight and soft tannins will allow it to pair with a wide variety of foods, although it may lack the power to succeed with steak. Drink now.

Starts off with scents of black cherry, mocha and a touch of tomato, which intensifies on the palate, picking up a roasted or grilled nuance. It’s medium-bodied, silky in texture and pleasantly dry on the finish.

This medium-bodied, softly structured Shiraz features a peppermint tinge to its plummy aromas and flavors, giving it a slightly medicinal edge. Drink now.

With lovely hints of honey and nectarine on the nose, this Chardonnay offers considerable promise. But the deep color and lack of vibrancy signals a wine that would have been better consumed yesterday.
