While this is dry, it is enormously rich in orange and guava flavors, with an oaky overlay that tastes sweet in buttered toast and vanilla. Salmon or lamb with a fruity tapenade or salsa should make…

Sourced from the Boushey Vineyard, this includes 10% Roussanne. One-third was barrel-fermented, resulting in an especially rich mouthfeel, with a lush core of melon, tangerine, pineapple, papaya and…

Tangy and somewhat austere on the nose, this wine is made from a majority of Cabernet Sauvignon, softened by Pinot Noir, Sangiovese and Zinfandel. Floral in rose petals, the flavors lean toward straw…
