This has interesting spice in both the nose and the mouth, a bit like sniffing fresh pine needles. There is also a whiff of rose petal and a streak of those floral flavors in the back of the palate. Just under 13% alcohol, this pretty white wine would pair up nicely with a delicate seafood dish.

Front-loaded, herbal, earthy and a bit dull. No fruit.

Fresh, spicy and crisp, this deft Malbec shines with pretty raspberry fruit and sharp acidity. Focused and clean, it’s a big step forward for this winery.

Light and simple, this has moderate flavors of pear and apple, a whiff of spice, and a rather thin finish. Just a lick of butterscotch suggests some sort of oak treatment was used.

Short and sharp, this “Proprietor’s Limited Release” is simply a plain, generic style, with a bitter finish.

Petit Verdot is not an easy grape; here it turns volatile, the grapes pruney, and the finish tannic and short.

This Zinfandel tastes barely ripe; there is little or no fruit flavor, just a leafy, light, generic wine that quickly disappears from the palate.

This “Barrel Select” Syrah has been ripened to pruneyness, yet remains short, hot and simple. It could be any red grape left to hang late and fermented at (perhaps) high temperatures.
