Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Dry and rather raw, with a green, minty sharpness to the berry-cherry flavors. Would benefit from greater fruity concentration.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Too sweet, with sugared blackberry, blueberry and cherry jam flavors, and lacking balancing acidity.

Dry and easy, with refreshing acidity framing pleasant flavors of pineapple sour candy, lemon sorbet, buttered toast and vanilla. The alcohol is nice and low.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Here’s a wine with some real charm. It’s dry and smooth, with nice flavors of cherries, violets, bacon, sweet herbs and charred oak. Decant it for an hour or two before serving.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Nicely dry, and rich in fine, chewy tannins, with blackberry, cherry and tobacco flavors. Suffers a bit from sharpness and a green, stemmy taste.

Lots of ripe pineapple jam and oak flavors on this sweet, creamy wine. Nothing complicated, but good enough to satisfy fans of the variety.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
There is a lot going on in this affordable Cabernet. It shows real character in the dryness, firm tannins and classic flavors of blackberries and cedar, with a tug of herbs. A full-bodied red wine, and a great restaurant pour.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Good value in a solid Napa Valley Cabernet blend with plenty of upscale character. It’s dry and firm in tannins, with complex flavors of blackberries, black currants, herbs and cedar. Drink now.

Q Meritage - 2008

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Racy and dry, this delicious Pinot Noir offers very pleasant flavors of cherries, currants and cola. It feels silky in the mouth, with zesty acidity for balance. A great value, but case production was only 1,000.
