Here’s a good Cabernet to drink now. It’s soft and gritty in tannins, with ripely forward blackberry, cherry and currant flavors, coated with sweet, smoky oak.

Even people who like lots of buttered toast and smoky vanilla in their Chards might find this one a little over the top. It’s a good, rich wine, with lots of bright tropical fruit, but it would score higher if it were just a little less oaky.

Shows lots of dryness and austerity, with acidity, minerals and herbs accompanying the citrus and oak flavors. Not a flamboyant Chardonnay, but a controlled one that offers complexity. A good companion to fresh crab, with buttery garlic bread.

A little tough and gritty in the mouth, but the flavors are rich, and the wine finishes long and spicy. Underneath the edgy tannins is plenty of black cherry, currant and plum fruit. Drink now.

Made in a lighter, earthier style, but still showing plenty of class. It’s dry and silky, with sour cherry candy and spice flavors. Good value for a Pinot of this elegance.

Give this soft, simple Cab a little time to blow off some unpleasant odors. After a while, it clears, and the wine turns acceptable in berry-cherry flavor.

Good price for a Cab of this quality. Shows a gritty, tannic toughness that will play well against a nice steak. The blackberry, currant, herb and cedar flavors are just fine. Drink now.

This is exactly what Merlot should taste like, and you get it for a pretty nice price. Dry and velvety, it has immediately likeable flavors of red cherries, smoky bacon, violets, peppery spices and a lovely coat of sandalwood. Drink this lush, smooth wine now.
