Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A cheerful sort of Chardonnay with juicy fruit rounded by a touch of oak and a fairly rich, buttery background with good structure The wine was made by Tom Eddy, the Napa winemaker known for big reds. The 1997 is the first national release for Salmon Harbor.

Dark and plum-scented, with a grapey sweetness as well. The flavors are of sweet cherry and strawberry, plump and forward, with a minty finish. It is a hearty, forward, cleanly made wine that offers a great deal of immediate pleasure.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A young wine that smells and tastes as though it leapt from the fermenter to the glass. It’s packed with jammy, ripe fruit and the high acidity that usually accompanies it. Juicy and thick, it’s almost rude in its impertinence. But it’s fun, and the price is right. Best Buy.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Here is another pleasant, budget effort, with a smooth, surprisingly rich palate impression, soft and forward. All stainless steel fermented, though I thought I detected just a wee hint of oak, but it’s clearly made for right-now drinking.
