Hoodsport 1998 Reserve Chardonnay (Yakima Valley)
- $17
Smells oakier and fruitier than the regular bottling, with pretty peach and green-apple notes. There's a fair amount of richness on the palate. The fruit is spicy and ripe, and the oak adds spice and a sappy sweetness. Very balanced and likable, and certainly a nice food wine.

Hoodsport 2002 Syrah (Yakima Valley)
- $27
Ultraripe blackberries carry a suggestion of briary-brambly stemminess in addition to the jammy fruit flavors. Creamy and supple in the mouth, ending on a soft, easy note.

Hoodsport 1998 Lemberger-Cabernet (Yakima Valley)
- $11
A fruity pop-style wine that tastes like cherry cola, only it’s well made, clean and balanced. The acidity seems high--it even feels a little prickly on the tongue. The mix is 67% Lemberger, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Hoodsport 2002 Pinot Noir
- $27
Simple, with a soft, creamy, mint and vanilla aroma. Tart rhubarb flavors, or perhaps strawberries and cream, fill up the middle.

Hoodsport 1998 Gewürztraminer (Yakima Valley)
- $9
Has dense, heavy aromas of jasmine, cinnamon, rose petal, chocolate and citrus. Fruity and fairly sweet, with flavors of ripe peaches, nectarines and orange sherbet. Acidity is okay, but there's a heaviness, a thickness to the wine that makes it a bit awkward on the palate.

Hoodsport 2006 Chardonnay (Columbia Valley (WA))
- Online Exclusive

Generic Chardonnay, almost invisible, with some suggestions of soap and flowers and a bit of heat in the finish.
