"..Dark roast, dark fruit sweetness, chocolate, slight alcohol warmth, and some lingering hops ..Very well matured, extremely smooth and palatable. An absolute classic, with a lot a kick.."

"Wonderful aroma of coffee, malt, chocolate, raisins. Flavor is a well balanced mix of caramel, toffee, sweet and bitter chocolate, roasted malt, warming alcohol. Mouthfeel is thick and smooth..."

"The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Kayli Morgan Vineyard is generous and textured from start to finish. Layers of dark red fruit, espresso, new leather, spices and sweet savory herbs are some of the notes that take shape in the glass. High-toned floral notes and the silkiest of tannins frame the striking finish. This is a great showing."

"Bright violet color. Powerfully scented with blackberry and blueberry, with a more serious licorice character coming up in the glass. Flavors of dark berries, bitter cherry and mocha show both depth and verve, sweetened by a touch of vanilla. Gains firmness with air and finishes with good clarity and length. Definitely shows the polish I've come to expect from a Ben Riggs wine."

"...The flavor was of hops, coriander, and citrus...Not as refreshing as other wit/white beers, but still a good beer worth trying..."

"Bright and luminous to the eye, with orchard fruit and spice on the nose. Apples and vanilla on the palate, with citrus suggestions and minerals emerging in the finish. This is textbook Chardonnay that displays a surprisingly broad range of flavors, and is a diamond in the rough at this price point."
