Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A big, flavorful Chard from a statewide appellation. It’s got lots of coastal influences in the pure, crystalline peach and tropical fruit flavors, and the steely spine of acidity.

Rainbow Ridge Chardonnay - 2002

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
From Lodi grapes, a wine that’s dark as midnight, and big. Plums, blackberries, cassis, tobacco and dried kitchen herb aromas. In the mouth, big, rich, intense and tannic, and dry as dust. It is just a baby, with plummy flavors, and will improve with cellaring through 2011. Notable for its balance, complexity and harmony.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Earthy, with an herbal, tobaccoey edge to the peach, pineapple and oaky flavors. Drinks dry and soft, with a finish of almond skin bitterness.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Here’s a big, jammy blush wine. It’s certainly full-bodied for a rosé, but has a nice silky feeling. The fruity flavor is powerful in cherries and raspberries, with a semisweet finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This blend of Cabernet, Merlot, Syrah and Sangiovese is a country-style wine, rustic and a little sweet on the finish. But it’s a clean, easy sipper, especially at this price.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
With no oak, this is a clean, fruity wine, and dry, with peach and apricot flavors and balancing acids. It feels nice and richly spicy in the mouth.
