Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A sound everyday wine. For a decent price, you get a full-bodied, dry Petite Sirah, with plenty of berry jam and spice flavors. Easy to find, with 10,000 cases produced.

A lusty wine, soft and filled with jammy blackberry, cherry and raspberry flavors. Easy to drink, a great wine for big parties.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Good cherry, cocoa and sweet oak flavors in this dry wine. It’s too soft, lacking structure, but is a pretty good buy for the price.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Comes down on the hard, rough side of the Petite Sirah spectrum, with jagged tannins and dry flavors of cola, green mint, blackberries, bacon and black pepper that turn bitter toward the finish.

A delicious, easy-drinking Pinot Noir for everyday, at a good price. It has raspberry tutti-fruity flavors with lots of vanilla and spice.

Sweet raspberry jam, herb, green pea and vanilla caramel flavors mark this soft, simple Merlot. It’s an easy sipper with a clean, spicy finish.

This is the kind of Cabernet you get served at a big party. It’s fine for everyday purposes, filled with simple, jammy raspberry, cherry and sweet oak flavors.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Great price for a big production (5,000 cases) Chardonnay of this quality. It’s dry and crisp and elegantly structured, with savory citrus fruit, peach, mineral and vanilla flavors. Easily as good as many Chards far more costly. From Don Sebastiani & Sons.
