Dynamite Vineyards 2002 Merlot (North Coast)

  1. $17
This is a dark, young and impressively fruity wine. It’s massive in plum, cherry and chocolate flavors, but has subtle nuances of dried herbs and flowers that make it complex. Very dry and stylish, with soft, lush tannins that make it instantly drinkable.  — S.H.  (10/1/2005)

Dynamite Vineyards 2003 Zinfandel (Mendocino County)

  1. $17
This is a bone-dry, slightly overripe Zin, with dusty, briary aromas and flavors of raisins, bitter dark chocolate and ripe plums. It’s a serious Zin, a little hot but with plenty of sophistication.  — S.H.  (10/1/2005)

Dynamite Vineyards 2001 Merlot (North Coast)

  1. $17
This wine is big and rich, and feels plush and smooth in the mouth. You’ll find flavors of cherries, plums, herbs and coffee, and thick but ripe tannins. It’s nuanced in its appeal.  — S.H.  (5/1/2004)

Dynamite Vineyards 2000 Red Hills Cabernet Sauvignon (Lake County)

  1. $25
From hill 2,000 feet above sea level, an amazingly ripe and supple Cab. Filled with oodles of cherry and blackberry fruit, with a long, rich chocolatey finish. Very smooth tannins help this delicious, soft wine go down like velvet.  — S.H.  (12/31/2003)

Dynamite Vineyards 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon (Red Hills Lake County)

  1. $15
The fruit got really ripe in this softly tannic wine. It’s nicely dry and subtlely flavored with blackberry, coffee, tobacco and mild oak flavors. With this level of polish and sophistication, it’s a good buy.  — S.H.  (5/1/2008)

Dynamite Vineyards 2004 Zinfandel (Mendocino County)

  1. $17
Nice Zin, rich in wild blackberry, cherry, blueberry, chocolate and coconut candy flavors, with a briary, peppery finish. There’s an appealing fat, round softness in this wine.  — S.H.  (12/15/2006)

Dynamite Vineyards 2000 Merlot (North Coast)

  1. $18
Richly textured, though packing a burned-toast framework on the palate. Hints of cassis, blackberry and herb show through as well. Tangy on the finish.  — J.M.  (11/15/2002)

Dynamite Vineyards 2004 Kelsey Creek Sauvignon Blanc (Lake County)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $11
There's a lovely aroma and flavor of figs in this delicate wine, along with notes of pineapples and sweet lemongrass. It's very dry, with crisp, uplifting acidity. A pleasant wine at a good price.  — S.H.  (3/1/2006)
