Very good Dry Creek Zin, robust and dry and spicy. Really gets the tastebuds watering, with its tart flavors of sour cherry candy, red currants, blueberries, tart raisins and oodles of peppery spices. Drink this lusty wine with barbecue.

Pretty soft for a Pinot Noir, and lacking the structural integrity the variety needs. Nonetheless, the flavors of black and red cherries, cola, orange zest and spices are delicious. Drink now.

There’s not much, if any, oak on this Chardonnay, leaving the fresh, clean fruit flavors to star. Shows a rich array of pineapples, Meyer lemons, yellow apricots and peaches, with spicy, vanilla overtones. Elegant, and a good buy at this price.

Here’s a juicy, deliciously drinkable Cab. It’s wonderfully ripe and rich, showing flavors of wild blackberries, black cherries, mocha, anise and cedar, with a wild, herbal streak of chamomile tea and peppermint. One of the best Cabs of the vintage from Dry Creek Valley.

This wine doesn’t miss not having any oak, because the flavors are rich enough on their own. Backed up with crisp acidity, it offers a wealth of Meyer lemons, pineapples, ripe pears, peaches, lemongrass and spices. Try with a salad of bitter greens, shallots, grapefruit and garlic shrimp.

Appeals for its dryness, crispness and overall balance. Really elegant, with low alcohol and tantalizing citrus, gooseberry, pepper and vanilla flavors. The price makes it a good value.

An eccentric Chardonnay. It’s certainly not shy, offering a blast of pineapple, Meyer lemon and Asian pear fruit flavors, brightened with good acidity and elaborated with oak. The trick with this kind of Chardonnay is to make it finish dry. This one doesn’t.

A good Pinot, ripe and fruity and dry. It shows real elegance in the silky texture and crisp acids, as well as rich flavors of raspberries, cherries, cocoa and spices. Drink it now for maximum enjoyment.

On the hot, sweet side, with high alcohol, caramelized oak and residual sugar combining to make the cherry and raspberry flavors taste like jam.
