Very ripe and forward in lush cherry and cocoa flavors, with a soft, velvety texture. The tannins are rich and smooth.

Just terrific, a dark, dense and full-bodied Rhône-style wine of immense charm. Based on Syrah, it shows intense blackberry, leather, bacon and cedar flavors, with a blast of black pepper, wrapped into sturdy, ripe tannins. Now–2012.

Extremely high alcohol shows up as heat throughout, especially in the finish. That aside, this Rhône red blend has lots to like. It’s dry and full-bodied and soft, with complex flavors of blackberries, currants, chocolate, leather, anise, black pepper and sandalwood. Drink now with rich meats and cheeses.

Here’s a dark, rich, ripe and full-bodied southern Rhône-style wine that personifies Paso Robles reds. A blend of Grenache and Syrah, it offers gobs of cherry pie filling, anise, bacon and peppery spices wrapped into soft tannins. Finishes a bit hot. Drink soon.

Feels a bit one-dimensional now, showing fruit and oak sweetness and ripe, forward cherry pie and spice flavors. Could age, but the simple structure suggests otherwise. Drink this southern Rhône-style blend now.

A bit one-dimensional, with jammy red cherry pie filling flavors that taste sweet and glyceriney. Tasty, but cloys after a few sips. Ready now.

This 100% Syrah is dark and dramatic looking, with a glyceriney sheen to the inky purple color. Feels soft and voluptuous, and very oaky, too. But the oak works well with the oodles of ripe blackberry, blueberry, cocoa and anise flavors.

Here’s a nice, easy Rhône blend based on Grenache. Ready to drink now, it’s dry and rich in red and black cherries, Dr. Pepper cola, bacon and sandalwood flavors, with smooth tannins.

A bit hot in alcohol, and glycerine gives a sugary-sweet edge to the blackberries, black cherries and oak. There might even be some residual sugar. If you like your reds soft and on the sweet side, and lots of people do, it’s for you.
