Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a very dry, richly textured Cabernet, vast in blackberry, black currant and cedar flavors, with the smooth, complex tannins Oakville is known for. However, there’s a noticeable sharpness to the mouthfeel that may never go away.

Meyer Family Cabernet Sauvignon - 2005

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Feels tough and leathery, like beef jerky, with background notes of blackberries, blueberries and smoky cedar. But it’s very dry, and there’s a certain nobility of structure. Could well age. Try toward the end of 2010.

Meyer Family Syrah - 2005

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Marked by extreme dryness and tannic astringency, this 100% Syrah might benefit from time in the cellar, although there can be no guarantees with an unknown producer. It has a good core of black currants, black pepper and baker’s chocolate. Try after 2009.

Meyer Family Syrah - 2004

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Solid blackberry, black currant, bacon, black pepper and sandalwood flavors in this dry wine. The grapes come from a small appellation in Mendocino County. It’s too soft, lacking structure, but has a certain opulence.

Meyer Family Syrah - 2006

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Satisfies the basic Port requirements of sweetness, firm tannins and crisp acidity. Quite good in blackberry, black currant liqueur and chocolate flavors. Needs an extra layer of richness and complexity, though.
