From Nevada County, this wine is full of black currant flavors and dry tannins. The trick, of course, is to get Cabernet to taste fancy and pedigreed. No sense buying a rustic Cabernet at any price—we have Zin for that.

A completely average wine, with jammy flavors of red and black cherry, spice, and a hint of tarry earth. Tastes soft and mellow, with a thick, syrupy texture. There’s nothing wrong with it, but it’s pricey for what you get.

A Bordeaux blend, it’s dry and balanced, with some nice cherry-berry flavors and a touch of oak. Could use a little more ripeness and finesse.

Rustic and dry, with puckery tannins, this earthy wine blends coffee and herb flavors with a touch of berry.

Well-ripened cherry-blackberry fruit is floating in sturdy, rough tannins that make the mouthfeel rugged. Itís an honest country-style wine, but seems expensive.

A distinctive, old fashioned California mountain Zin. It’s strong in alcohol, very ripe in blackberry flavor, and tannic and rustic in texture, with just a touch of Porty raisins.

The mountains have produced a pleasantly drinkable wine. It has plummy, cherry and licorice flavors with an earthy edge of coffee, and soft tannins. Try as an alternative to Merlot.

A blend of Syrah, Cab Sauvignon, Charbono, Petite Sirah and Zinfandel that lives up to its moniker. It’s rough in its briary, earthy flavors, and ready to drink.

Fully ripened fruit, from four vineyards in four counties, comes together seamlessly to to produce this flavorful red wine. It’s juicy and filled with berry flavors that taste dry, but finish sweet. This country wine is soft and a little short on finesse.

Juicy and ripe. You can taste the sun in every sip of the blackberry, blueberry and black cherry flavors. The wine is balanced and supple, maybe too soft, but that’s nitpicking. It’s Sierra-esque in its rugged, briary way.
