The winery says this was the longest hangtime vintage in their history. The fruit is extraordinarily ripe in blackberries and cherries, with a rich coating of smoky oak, but retains a nice tannin-acid balance. Scads of Asian spices make the finish exotic. Drink now.

Sweet in caramelized oak, this Chard also has jammy flavors of pears and apricots.

A little soft and direct, with jammy, pie-filling flavors of pineapples, tangerines, pears and apricots. Drink now.

Feels unnaturally acidic, with an ultra-tart tang to the ripe cherries, cola and smoky cedar. Drink now.

You’ll find luscious flavors of sour red cherries, anise, pecan pie, cola and smoke in this dry wine. But it’s a little too soft, structurally, which will limit development. Drink now.

This is a pleasant, full-bodied Syrah for drinking now. It’s softly tannic and dry, with flavors of red cherries, bacon, smoky oak and peppery spices.

Simple and too oaky, with peach, pineapple, vanilla cream and buttered toast flavors. The toast overwhelms everything.

A little heavy and soft, with jelled raspberry, cola and vanilla flavors. The finish turns sugary.
