Thin and sweet, a rustic wine with the flavors of canned pineapples, peaches and apricots. Crisp, balancing acidity helps.

The underlying wine shows real Santa Barbara Chard character of crispness and ripe, juicy fruit, with flavors of pineapples and peaches. But a huge, major flaw is excessive oakiness. All that caramel and butterscotch throws this otherwise likeable wine out of balance.

Filled with bright, zesty fruit, this Sauvignon offers lots to like, such as forward pineapple, cinnamon and vanilla flavors that finish just a little sweet. High acidity provides much-needed balance.

Decent everyday Merlot. Although you can criticize the thinness of fruit, it’s got a nice, smooth texture, and is very dry. Shows just enough cherry and mocha fruit to be properly varietal.

Upfront cherry, blackberry and chocolate flavors hit with some nice, furry tannins, and the wine is basically an everyday, by-the-glass sort of Merlot.

Soft and rustic; very low acidity and simple, semi-sweet cherry cough medicine flavors.

As tart in acids and zingy as cool-climate Chard comes, with bright, mouth-stimulating lime and kiwi flavors that finish dry and clean. There’s a tiny bit of oak, but the fruit really stars in this tasty, affordable wine.

Smells and tastes raw, weirdly combining green, minty flavors with slightly sweet medicinal ones of cherry cough drops.
