Smells a bit green—mint or dill perhaps—as well as fruity. Big, vibrant blackberry and black currant flavors follow up on the palate, finishing crisp and clean.

Opens with bright, tart fruit displaying berry, cherry and rhubarb qualities. This north-country candidate has good scale and mouthfeel. Berry, earth and leather flavors, smooth dry tannins, and a dusty earth note on the finish close out this medium-weight and balanced offering. Drink now through 2008.

Attractive aromas of cedar and blueberries are layered with pine and tar. Flavors of toasted almond, milk chocolate and juicy blueberries make this full-bodied yet elegant. —C.S.

Much work evidently went into crafting this wine. It’s intense in black currant flavors, with a beautiful polish of chocolate and green olive. The tannins are softly rich. There’s good balancing acidity, and a sweet jacket of spicy oak. This is a Mendocino Cab worth watching.
