Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Cherries, blackberries, spicy figs, dark chocolate and licorice are just a few of the flavors you’ll find in this intricately layered wine. It’s fully dry, with powerful but softly sweet tannins. Cabernet Franc is a real success story of the Sierra Foothills, as this polished wine demonstrates.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Cooked or burnt black currants and caramelized oak are the flavors you’ll find in this tannic wine. It feels heavy-handed, and is unlikely to develop with age.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Shows all the hallmarks of a fine young Petite Sirah. Dry and full-bodied, it’s a tannic, acidic wine in its youth, packed with muscular black currant, coffee, caramel and spicy chocolate flavors. Fans of the variety will love its typicity, and if you’re into aging your wines, this should develop for at least 10 years.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Soft and rather vague in character, this average quality wine has modest cherry-berry, chocolate and sweet vanilla flavors. Drink now.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
“The Three Young Ladies”––Viognier, Roussanne and Marsanne––don’t seem to be getting along in this golden-colored wine, which tastes a bit closed and simple, not as lush as Naggiar’s estate Viognier.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This Roussanne, Marsanne and Viognier blend is named for a cousin gifted in the art of matchmaking. It’s a touch sweet, a little closed still, with notes of tar and caramel and the promise of lightly flavored apples and honeysuckle in the body of the wine.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
What you get with this wine is a lot of cherry pie flavor along with a fairly heavy, soft mouthfeel and some gritty tannins. Drink now.

Naggiar Sangiovese - 2003

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Here’s a wine with briary, wild-berry flavors and substantial, somewhat astringent tannins. But the flavors are rich, like very ripe blackberries, raspberries and logan berries picked on a hot summer day. Very nice, especially with a good steak.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An austere Viognier with diesel and graphite aromas that delve into more pleasing apricot midpalate, then drops off a bit on the finish.
