* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Rich, creamy and fruity, with a blast of pineapple, peach pie, green apple butter and Asian spice flavors, it’s dry, with refreshing cool-climate acidity.

Shows the ripeness and oakiness that have characterized previous vintages, but considerably greater structure. The jammy pears and pineapples are there, but the wine isn’t as sweet as last year, and is firmer in acidity. Good value for the price.

Gentle and soft, with modest flavors of cherries and cola that are dry, with zesty acidity. This is a nice, everyday Pinot.

This is a pretty good wine. It has the ripe peach, tropical fruit and oaky flavors, creamy texture and oak of top Chards, although there’s a homespun rusticity that shows.

A simple, kind of rough and earthy Cab, thin in fruit, which accentuates the tannins. It’s dry and spicy on the finish.

Racy and irresistible, a Zin that sings out with bright flavors of cherries, blackberries and raspberries, fresh as the summer sun. Soft, sweet tannins and a smidgen of oak add interest.

This is a very fruity, dynamic Zin with concentrated cherry, raspberry, blackberry and cola flavors, generously spiced. It has the dryness and tannic structure you want in a nice Zin, with a touch of oak.

Super-tasty in blackberry, cherry and chocolate flavors, this Zin couldn’t possibly be riper or fruitier. On the other hand, it could be crisper. Those flavors, while delicious, feel a bit syrupy, due to insufficient acidity.

Young and jammy, this is a Cab that tastes like it just came out of the fermenter. It’s all grapy, primary fruit blackberries and cherries, with an undertow of smoky vanilla.

Thin, with cola and root beer flavors and a richer dash of cherries. It’s clean enough, just one-dimensional.
