Made from Cabernet Sauvignon, this dessert wine has flavors of blackberries and currants. It’s sweet, but not super-sweet, with sturdy tannins.

At the age of more than eight years (!), this newly released Cab still tastes young. It has jammy flavors of berries and chocolate-covered mint candy, and is dry. Drink now.

At the age of 5-plus years, this Petite Sirah remains tough in tannins. It has very ripe fruity flavors of currants and mocha that veer into raisins and prunes. Needs rich fare, like barbecue.
