Wagner 1998 Ice Wine Riesling
- $18
Orange, apricot and pineapple aromas ride over a deep bass note of earth and spice. The earth nearly takes over on the palate, providing a rich, complex counterpoint to the fruit-driven sweetness. Could use a touch more acidity to really make the flavors sing.

Exuberant and floral on the nose, this Riesling is intense and fruity on the palate, with concentrated apple-jelly and peach flavors. Brightened by lime-inflected acidity, the long finish extends with a delicious waxy streak.

Wagner 2010 Reserve Chardonnay

Hints of nut and smoke add savory tones to the concentrated flavors of apple and quince in this balanced and luscious Chardonnay. Dry and full bodied, it has sharp, steely acidity, and a finish that bears a flurry of sweet biscuit notes.

Wagner 1998 Ice Wine Vignoles
- $18
Shows off the exotic musky-spicy side of this grape in its peppery, leathery aromas. Turns tropical in the mouth: papaya and mango are joined by zippy citrus-tinged acidity. Finishes long, with some of the peppery notes returning.

Wagner 2007 Meritage
- $23
An impressive effort, with reticent black currant and cassis tones upfront followed by pomegranate in the mouth. There’s good depth of flavor here though the marked acidity and broad tannins require pairing with hearty fare. Better after 2010.
