Clay Station 2003 Shiraz (Lodi)

Price $13

This is a very dry wine, and full-bodied. It has blackberry, pepper, spice and herb flavors, and some firm tannins. The finish is clean and fruity. From Delicato. — S.H. (3/1/2005)

Clay Station 2004 Old Vine Zinfandel (Lodi)

Price $12

This and the Gnarly Head bottling exemplify the kind of wine we’ve come to expect from the Indelicato family. Ripe berry fruit leads the way, but picks up enough earthy complexity along the way to show real character. Shows a bit of heat on the finish, but also some welcome spice. — W.E. (8/1/2006)

points

Clay Station 2003 Viognier (Lodi)

Price $13

A nice, balanced Viognier that showcases the variety’s exotic edge. Mango, cantaloupe, honeysuckle, coffee and vanilla flavors finish a little sweet. — S.H. (12/15/2004)

points

Clay Station 2004 Pinot Gris (Lodi)

Price $13

Simple and clean, this wine is dry and acidic, with the flavor of grapefruit juice. It’s a good sipper with grilled veggies and goat cheese, or by itself. — S.H. (2/1/2006)

points

Clay Station 2005 Pinot Gris (Lodi)

Price $13

Good, drinkable vin ordinaire here, but nothing to get worked up about. It’s just a clean, fruity, vibrant house white. — S.H. (12/1/2006)

points

Clay Station 2001 Cabernet-Petite Sirah Red (Lodi)

Price $13

This fruity wine has some rough tannins and is a bit jagged, but the blackberry, coffee and chocolate flavors are delicious. Fully dry, but finishes with lots of ripe fruit. — S.H. (12/15/2004)

points

Clay Station 2002 Malbec (Lodi)

Price $13

Jammy in dark stone fruits and espresso, sharp in acids and tannins and rough, but clean and focused. Best with rich meats and strong cheeses. — S.H. (12/15/2004)

points

Clay Station 2003 Malbec (Lodi)

Price $13

This is a junior version of those big, rich Argentine Malbecs. It’s something like a California Zinfandel, medium- to full-bodied and dry, with brambly berry flavors and a robust, gritty mouthfeel. — S.H. (12/15/2005)
