Sawdust and toast aromas lead the nose. The palate offers oak extract, licorice and bitter powdered sage but not much fruit richness. Raspy tannins generate an astringent finish.
This new vintage of the Zena Crown seems already faded. Light, tart strawberry fruit lacks concentration and carries a bit of bitter herb flavor. Tannins are earthy and the finish abrupt.
Inviting floral notes open the aromatics of this wine. These evolve into a thick palate of melon and citrus, the finish light and high in acidity. Straightforward and balanced, it's a quaffer.
This wine comes from the original, own-rooted, 1965 plantings. It would be interesting to trace the ancestry of these vines, as such things were far less understood 50 years ago. Soft, round and frui…
Damp forest and dried cherry with cranberry combine on the nose and palate in this wine, sourced predominantly from Monterey County. Soft and silky it risks veering off balance once the oak begins to…
This light crisp wine with its yeasty citrus aromas is juicy, fruity and with fine acidity. Its citrus fruits and touch of pepper have been filled out with the lees aging. The wine is ripe and ready…
Aromas of vanilla, cocoa and woodspice are at the fore. The palate starts out broadly but then trails as it moves toward the finish. This wine doesn't entirely come together.
There are hints of cream and butter on the nose. They also appear on the palate but are counteracted by very lively frothy lemony fizz. The palate is light and easy with big lively bubbles and a dry,…
Almost clear in color, this wine shows tropical aromas of melon, honeysyuckle and lychee. The light-bodied, high-acid palate is carried by white peach and citrus flavors that finish short but clean.
This is a straightforward wine showing ripe tropical fruits and a melon rind character, while mint and lemon peel ride out in the background. The fruit disappears quickly on the finish but a lovely h…
The fruit is light and a touch sour, with suggestions of watermelon and berry. It fades into a short finish with a citrusy frame.
This cuvée is a barrel selection, fermented with whole berries and aged in 35% new oak. Simple strawberry and raspberry fruit seems almost weightless, and the quick finish carries a strong streak of…
Raspberry and rubber-band aromas lead to a saturated palate with full tannnins and flavors of plum and plum skins. A mildly hot finish with grapeskin residue maintains the high volume this Malbec is…
Produced from late-picked grapes, this 100% varietal concentrates perfumed scents and flavors into a wine that is almost syrupy. The score reflects a slightly bitter flavor that comes up in the finis…
From a cool site near the town of Graton, this is a highly concentrated, slightly cloudy wine with strong Gravenstein apple and lemon-lime aromas. Wild anise flavors season the rich, bold palate, but…
A dusty, yeasty nose is simplistic but friendly. On the palate, this foams up in an aggressive manner, yet orange and peach flavors ride a wave of bubbly foam towards a lightly citrusy but plump fini…
Here's a lively, informal sparkler with aromas and flavors suggesting green apple, white peach and lemon peel. Crisp acidity gives it a clean invigorating finish.
This combines Chardonnay, Malvasia Bianca, Sauvignon Blanc and Chenin Blanc in nearly equal parts. A sweet, floral nose of honeysuckle dominates before apricot jam and vanilla flavors enter the scene…
This special-edition wine carries a striking logo relating to a particular chair that has something to do with the owners. Apart from that, it's pretty standard stuff—black cherry, plum and cocoa fla…
Made from organically farmed grapes grown in an estate vineyard, then cradled in American oak, this delivers subdued aromas of ripe, lusty lemon and big oak. Lurching toward the finish are flavors of…
Pinched and wiry-smelling on the nose, this Garnacha comes around with earthy red-berry aromas in front of a full, chunky, fairly oaky palate. Flavors of blackberry and vanilla are good but common, w…
Dusty aromas include notes of apple cider, cured meat and cumin. A loosely built palate features slightly mealy, lightly bitter flavors of pithy citrus and mango, while the finish is plump but not te…
Yeasty, slightly stalky aromas of melon, citrus and peach are simple yet fresh. This feels solid, pulpy and fleshy, but not flabby; flavors of melon, papaya and white grapefruit finish pithy and slig…
While this is largely neutral-smelling, it's flush in the mouth, with pithy citrus and green apple flavors. Lasting and steady on the finish, this blend of Chardonnay and Muscat is juicy and alert af…
