Firm yet fleshy, this Merlot boasts chunky black-cherry fruit swaddled in layers of toast and dark chocolate. It’s medium-weight, graceful enough to drink with food, but it’s still chewy enough to drink on its own.

Strawberry isn’t a typical Cabernet descriptor, but it applies to this wine, which also boasts more classic notes of dried herbs, leather and cedar. Supple tannins make this Cab instantly approachable.

A bit rustic and tannic, but also shows some solid, ripe berry and cherry fruit. Hay, horse and spice notes add nuance without burying the fruit. Lighter-bodied, with crisp acids.

This interesting blend boasts aromas of preserved lemons and fresh herbs, then turns a bit plumper in the mouth, with nectarine flavors joining in. Tart and high-acid on the finish, making it a natural with oily seafood dishes like fresh sardines.

This 60-40 blend combines ripe stone-fruit elements of nectarine and peach with firm mineral notes and a hint of anise on the lingering finish. Slightly herbal, but speaks more of ripe fruit, making for a pleasant, medium-weight sipper.
