Aromas of beeswax and lemon oil, the flavors following along with tangerine, orange and peach. Very dry, with exceptional concentration of fruit, and well-integrated flavors of cracker and grain. This was barrel fermented, and delivers a long, concentrated finish.

Though not noticeably sweet, the residual sugar is listed as 1.6%—it’s masked by the crisp acidity. This has a firm core of citrus and light tropical fruit, good penetration and a lingering finish. The sweetness kicks in at the finish, with a suggestion of honey and tea.

Rich and full bodied, despite the relatively low alcohol, this supertart and luscious Riesling is loaded with sour candy flavors of lemon and lime. Quite refreshing, pure and dry.

Packaged in a lovely, Champagne-like bottle (but without a cage), this is very pretty, with a hint of cherry candy. The palate is round, full and forward. This is a wine to set on the table for a special occasion—but don’t wait too long.

Bright and sweetly fruity, with blackberry and black cherry fruit matched to vanilla-flavored oak. A bit high-toned, soft and fresh, with lots of immediate drinking appeal.

Tart and juicy, this nicely balanced Riesling mixes fruit flavors of orange, Meyer lemon and tangerine. The acids are natural and tangy, and the overall balance is just right.

Done in a solid, straight-ahead style, this estate-grown Cabernet pushes its ripe cherry flavor front and center. There is a pleasing sweet-sour snap to the mouthfeel.

Clean and leesy, this estate-grown Pinot Gris has a crisp mineral underpinning. Light celery and green melon flavors are balanced, showing good length and some finishing complexity.
