Winery - One Hope
* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Sweet and simple, with citrus, apricot, spice and vanilla flavors. Shows nice acidity, but too sugary-jammy to earn a higher score.

Dry and scoury in texture, this everyday Merlot has flavors of cherries, currants, cocoa, and cedar. It has some real richness.

A little tough and gritty, but okay for everyday fare. Shows blackberry, currant, tobacco and herb flavors that turn sweetly fruity on the finish.

Sweet and simple, with sugary vanilla cream, pineapple jam, apricot and spice flavors. But there’s good acidity, and the alcohol is low.

With underlying pineapple and lime fruit, this wine is overoaked. It’s all about buttered toast, caramel and butterscotch flavors, saved by crisp acidity.

Tastes like a sweet and sour sauce mixed into white wine, with pineapple, sugar and lime flavors and an alcoholic buzz.

Half the proceeds go to charity, but this Cab is not without problems, especially at this price. It’s a country-style wine, rough in tannins and overripe in raisiny flavors. But it’s dry, clean and finishes long and spicy.

A modest wine that has much to be modest about. It’s dry and rather simple, with candied cherry-berry, cola and spice flavors.

Rugged and harsh in the mouth, with very modest berry flavors, and a touch of green, stemmy mint. Not much richness, but it’s dry. Half the profits go to charity.

A simple Pinot Noir, light-bodied and spicy, with some nice cherry-raspberry flavors. Half the winery’s profits go to children’s hospitals.
