Ram's Leap 2007 Shiraz (Western Plains)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $14
Dark and earthy, with modest plum fruit framed by ample vanilla. The wood tannins come on strong on the tart finish, but don’t hold onto it expecting positive evolution; pair it with foods that will work with the astringency, like rare steak or burgers off the grill.  — J.C.  (2/1/2010)

Ram's Leap 2004 Shiraz (Western Plains)

  1. $11
Every other inhale, you’ll smell either leather or sweet fruit. On the palate, taut plum and rhubarb flavors dominate. A closed, somewhat disjointed wine, but it has an interesting rocky texture and some complexity.  — D.T.  (11/15/2006)

Ram's Leap 2005 Shiraz (Western Plains)

  1. $12
This is a rustic style of Shiraz, with hints of beef bouillon and cola layered over earth and plum notes. Chewy tannins bring it home, suggesting a pairing with rare roasts.  — J.C.  (11/15/2007)

Ram's Leap 2004 Merlot (Western Plains)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $11
Displays ssome pretty aromas and flavors of white pepper, mint and mixed cherries and berries, but the tannins are firm and drying, the mouthfeel hard and ungenerous.  — J.C.  (2/1/2007)
