More “red” in style, with medicinal cherry and raspberry aromas leading to a fresh, racy palate with tons of cherry and plum flavor along with a hint of cola and cough drop. Clean and lithe on the finish, with no excess weight or oak. The real deal in terms of freshness and purity of fruit. Drink now through 2013.

A really good and clean white wine with all the tropicality and zest that this Argentine variety can give. The nose is crystalline and pure, with white flower scents of jasmine and citrus blossom, while the palate is round, melony and full of lychee and papaya. Smooth on the finish. Drink soon.

Earthy and spicy up front, with modest heat and floral aromas. There’s not much structure or body here, but it’s juicy and just tasty enough due to good candied berry and plum flavors. A regular but steady everyday Cab.

Raspberry, plum and cherry aromas become more thin, cheesy and leathery with time. The palate is hard and narrow, with sheer flavors of generic raspberry and plum. Clacky and rough feeling on the finish.
