Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An exotic style of Grenache, with classic cherry fruit compounded with earthier, almost Burgundian notes of sweet old leather, sautéed mushrooms, balsam, soy and peppery spices. With its silky texture, it could almost be Pinot Noir. Drink this savory wine now.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A nice interpretation of this variety, and one of the best from Santa Barbara County ever. It’s bone dry, big in tannins, full-bodied and juicy, in the way of a young Petite Sirah, with blackberry, currant, cola and cedar flavors. Shows real finesse, in a wine that can often be awkward. Now–2015.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Good acidity on this clean, vibrant wine, with interesting pineapple, orange, pear and honeysuckle flavors. If you like your wines a little sweet, try it as an interesting alternative to Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Gris.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Feels too soft and rather one-dimensional, although the flavors are very good. The best thing about the wine, aside from dryness, is the richness of tannins. The fruit veers toward blackberry marmalade and currants. Doesn’t seem like an ager, so drink up.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A Southern Rhône-style blend of Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre. Shows great flavors of berries, currants, cured meat, spices and sandalwood, and finishes dry and smooth. Could have a firmer structure, as it’s a little soft and melted.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A lovely, fragrant wine that shows the spices and exotic floral and tropical fruit notes of this variety. Crisp in acidity, it finishes just a little off-dry.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A nice approach to Mourvèdre. Almost as light and silky as a Pinot Noir, but a bit more full-bodied, with complex flavors of cherries, bacon, licorice, dried herbs and pepper. Drink now.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Delicious flavors in this dry Syrah. Erupts with blackberries, blueberries, carob, smoked meat and spices, wrapped into sturdy but fine tannins. Feels a bit too soft, though. Drink now.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A lovely wine, with the clean, limpid mouthfeel of mountain spring water. It’s fundamentally dry, showing delicate flavors of cherries, peaches, minerals, vanilla and spices, brightened with tangy acidity.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Dark and jellied, with raspberry and vanilla flavors accompanied by zesty acidity. Rustic, but okay with cold cuts, or a chicken taco.
