"Good bright, deep red. Cool aromas of black cherry, licorice, tobacco and tar. The palate shows a restrained sweetness to the flavors of cherry, spices and loam (I got a note of Rutherford dust here). Broad and fairly full, finishing with substantial tongue-dusting tannins and a slight dryness."

"An enjoyable crisp dry white wine with a wonderful fruit-forward palate and a delicate long finish. Garganega and Pinot Grigio are both widely grown grapes from the Veneto region of Italy. The combination of these two grapes, results in a wine with white flowers on the nose and well-balanced juicy fruit on the palate. This wine is delicious on its own as an aperitif and it makes the perfect complement for seafood, poultry, and salads."

"Tightly knit, focused by racy acidity and a streak of minerality, this offers subtle notes of white peach, anise, biscuit and kumquat. The refined finish echoes a smoky note."

"Well-balanced, exhibiting flavors of light toast, Gala apple, honey and ginger, with smoke and mineral notes underscoring hints of tropical pineapple and tangerine fruit. There's lovely texture, with a firm backbone of juicy acidity"
