Hints at peanut butter on the nose, with just a hint of fruit, but in the mouth it opens a little, adding fruity flavors to the nutty ones. Smooth, but with enough acidity to finish crisply.

A run-of-the-mill Chardonnay nose with hints of oak lead to a light, sharp white wine with bright, lively tropical fruit flavors and a touch of mineral. Finishes with oak flavor and high acidity.

Simple and Beaujolais-like, with purple, grapey berry fruit as well as hints of char and leather. Smooth, simple and dry, with berry aromas.

Purple, grapey fruit flavors are simple but good, with hints of clay. Tannins are light, offering little structure. Aromas are a bit muddled, red berry one minute then mint and leather the next, with wafts of weediness.

Rosy colored, but with heavy, chunky aromas. Stalky red fruit flavors lack excitement. A touch of cola is nice, but not enough to stand out and sing.
