Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
No oak to interfere with the ripe, opulent flavors of pineapples, lemons, limes and tangerines, which are brightened and heightened by crisp acidity. The price is right on this balanced, savory Chardonnay.

Toad Hollow Chardonnay - 2008

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a lean, acidic and disagreeable wine. It’s unripe and minty, and even slightly vegetal, although there’s just enough cherry-berry fruit to squeeze by.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Dry and harsh, with green, minty flavors and sharp acidity. Clean, but not showing much in the way of fruit.

Toad Hollow Cabernet Sauvignon - 2005

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Juicy in tutti-frutti blackberries, cherries, plums, raspberries and milk chocolate, this soft, smooth Zin is also very peppery. It’s a somewhat rustic wine to wash down with barbecue.

Toad Hollow Zinfandel - 2007

0 out of 0 people thought this note was helpful.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A little one-dimensional, but otherwise a nice, everyday Pinot Noir with good varietal character. With a silky texture, it has dry, clean flavors of cherries, cola, spices and oak.

Toad Hollow Pinot Noir - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Good, but overly soft and simple, with a taste of melted cherry pie, cola and licorice. Needs greater structure and liveliness.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Thin in flavor, with watery tea and cola flavors and a few drops of cherry essence, this wine has the benefit of extreme dryness and crisp acidity. Those latter qualities go a long way in making up for a lack of fruit, especially at this low price.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
One of the more successful Pinot Noir rosés, this one is dry, as the label promises, and crisp in acidity. That makes the strong raspberry and vanilla cola flavors feel clean and bright.

Toad Hollow Rosé - 2009

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Good price for a dry, crisp, clean and versatile rosé. With mouthwatering acidity, it shows pretty flavors of red cherries, cranberries, Dr. Pepper cola, vanilla and spices.

Toad Hollow Rosé - 2008

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A bit harsh and green in tannins, with menthol-infused blackberry and cherry flavors that finish in a scour of pepper. Drink now.
