Bourassa Vineyards 2005 Reserve Petite Verdot (Napa Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $48
Quite an interesting wine that shows the hallmarks of a fine Napa Cab, but is a bit lighter in body, and more cherried. Dry and velvety, with smooth tannins, it will play well against a grilled steak with mushroom sauce.

Bourassa Vineyards 2006 Reserve Petite Sirah (Napa Valley)
- Online Exclusive
- $39
A fine young Petite Sirah, although it needs some time to mature. Even at the age of nearly 4 years, it shows fresh, jammy flavors of crushed blackberries and cherries, like it just came out of the fermenter. But it’s balanced. Better after 2012.

Bourassa Vineyards 2004 Symphony 3 Proprietors Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $50
Shows the ripeness and soft tannins of Napa Cabernet, but also firmer acidity than many, which gives it a good grip that’s food-friendly. The flavors of cherries, blackberries, currants, cassis and dark chocolate are accented by oak. This stylish young Cab will be best over the next five years.

Bourassa Vineyards 2003 Sauvignon Blanc (Napa Valley)
- $16
Aggressive in green grass, wheatberry and gooseberry aromas and flavors, but has a creamy edge of fig and melon to soften. Appealing for its crisp acidity and balance and lingering finish.

Bourassa Vineyards 2005 Zinfandel (Napa Valley)
- $28
With its blast of briary, brambly wild berries and black pepper, this is a classic Zin. The lusty flavors range through blackberries and cherries and mulberries to cola and root beer. Despite the hefty tannins, it’s ready now with grilled meats or pasta with tomato sauce.

Bourassa Vineyards 2004 Symphony 3 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $60
It may be that this wine needs time in the cellar, but right now, it’s tough and tannic. There are some fine blackberry, cassis, spicy plum and cedar flavors, and it could blossom after 2008 for a few years.

Bourassa Vineyards 2005 Symphony3 Proprietor's Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
- $60
A good Cabernet for drinking now, with polished tannins and candied flavors of blackberry pie filling, sour black cherry Lifesavers and sweet, smoky sandalwood.
