Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Robust tannins and a nice character of plum, cherry and spice recommend this wine, though it has a slightly one dimensional simplicity to it. Pair with burgers and grilled lamb to bring out the good spice notes.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
While the nose on this medium-bodied Cab is eminently fruit forward with scents of lush black cherry jam and spice, the palate is remarkably fresh with herbs, bramble and bright sour cherry. Supple tannins and a tart midpalate lead to a long finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Curiously perfumed with notes of roasted hazelnuts and fresh apples, this is a savory, dry Chardonnay. Full bodied in style with notes of nut oil and nut skins throughout, it ends with a hint of wood sap astringency on the finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Bright cherry and vanilla aromas lead this plucky, ageable Cab Franc from the Finger Lakes. Flavors of pepper, cherry and spice on the palate are balanced by a good acidity and the wine ends on a spiced note. Pair with cheeses, poultry.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This wine has a nose of black fruits, mocha and toffee, and on the palate, warming spices, tart cherry and a touch of sweetness. The flavors aren’t overly complex, but the wine is appealing, and the finish lingering.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Spice and menthol notes accent the nose on this dark, black cherry-perfumed Cabernet Franc. With intensely concentrated fruit on the palate, it’s plush with a rich, full-bodied texture, but balanced by wonderfully soft tannins and a vibrant sour cherry acidity that carries through to a long finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Starts a bit chemically, but that blows off to reveal minor fruit notes of red apple flesh and mushy melon. Light and prickly in the mouth with a medium-length finish. Growing a little tired; drink now.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Greenness prevails on the nose and palate of this Finger Lakes red, overshadowing the more elegant flavors of raspberry, spearmint and spice in the wine. It has character to be sure, but its angularity is also present.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A snappy nose of grass, grapefruit and graphite leads on this fun wine from Shaw. On the palate, lemon, citrus and spice follows. Solid and food-friendly, with a lingering, racy finish.

Shaw Sauvignon Blanc - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A beautiful late release from winemaker Steve Shaw, this multifaceted wine is redolent with white flowers and hints of smoke, stones and slate. Dry, but softened by a touch of white peach and limeade sweetness, the palate is refreshing and floral, but balanced by bracing acidity and a backdrop of petrol, smoke and minerality.
