Pretty and polished, this Merlot has well-ripened cherry, cocoa and blackberry flavors, with a nice swoosh of wintergreen. It’s dry, with decent acids, and is quite balanced. Will make a good, versatile food wine.

A touch of dust, dried sage, clover and dried tobacco accompanies the peach and apricot flavors in this wine. The finish is semisweet, and a bit soft.

This is a big, gutsy, muscular Merlot marked by hard, dry tannins. That doesn’t mean it’s not rich. It is, in black cherries, black currants, mocha and oak, but it remains a tough, hard wine despite being nearly six years old. Not going anywhere.

Lots of good flavor in this dry wine, with blackberries, black currants and herbs. But it’s very hard in tannins, with a drily astringent mouthfeel that no amount of age is likely to mitigate.

Dry and rough in texture, with berry, cherry, tobacco, herb and spice flavors wrapped into edgy, slightly green tannins. Turns sharp on the finish, and not likely to age.

A simple Chardonnay whose overdose of French oak does little to enhance the thin, reedy flavors of citrus fruits. The wine, which is nicely crisp and dry, would be better unoaked.
