Sort By:

Hidden Cellars 1998 Eaglepoint Ranch - Mendocino Heritage Petite Sirah (Mendocino)

Price $25

Looks so dark, you could fill a fountain pen with it. They take “Pet” seriously in these parts and vinify it the way the red soil grows it: fiercely strong and pushy. This is an enormous wine, massive in berry flavor, bone dry, sappy and juicy. It will probably age forever. The most amazing thing is the alcohol, a modest 13.5%, which makes it balanced. —S.H. — S.H. (5/1/2002)

Hidden Cellars 1997 Medocino Heritage Zania-Hitzma Zinfandel (Mendocino County)

Price $28

Winemaker Dennis Patton’s penchant for single-vineyard reds is kept going with this elegant, rich and delicious wine. Notable for its balance despite the huge flavors. The tannins are soft enough to drink tonight. — S.H. (9/1/1999)

Hidden Cellars 1996 Sorcery Zinfandel (Mendocino County)

Price $28

Another successful and complex red wine from Dennis Patton. Mainly Zinfandel, but with 15% Petite Sirah and 10% Syrah. A big wine, with rich fruit in a velvety soft package. A long, dry, spicy finish. — S.H. (11/1/1999)

Hidden Cellars 1997 Sorcery Zinfandel (Mendocino)

Price $28

A complex and immediately likable red blend with all sorts of berry and stone-fruit flavors. Spicy, dry and rich. Exuberantly Californian in its sun-ripened size. Contains 75% Zinfandel, 15% Petite Sirah and 10% Syrah. — S.H. (5/1/2000)

Hidden Cellars 1996 Mendocino Heritage Eaglepoint Zinfandel (Mendocino County)

Price $28

Yet another single-vineyard Zin from Patton, showing intense fruit and soft tannins that make it instantly appealing. — S.H. (9/1/1999)

Hidden Cellars 1997 Mendocino Heritage Pacini Vine Zinfandel (Mendocino County)

Price $28

For fans of cedary or eucalyptus notes. More tannic than their Zania-Hitzman bottling. Rich and silky. A different style showing the distinctions of terroir. — S.H. (9/1/1999)

Hidden Cellars 1997 Syrah (Mendocino)

Price $15

Nice wine. Bold, rich and ripe, with plenty of bright fruit and oak. Notable for its balance—big wines stuffed with ripe, spicy fruit can be unbalanced, but winemaker Dennis Patton handled this one deftly. Quintessentially Mendocino in its size and strength. — S.H. (5/1/2000)

Hidden Cellars 1997 Deep Valley Zinfandel (Mendocino)

Price $30

A medium-full wine, with an appealing mix of nut, cocoa, anise, oak and black fruit on the palate. Opens with paprika and cinnamon, plus cocoa aromas; closes with a definitive vanilla-anise-oak tang. — D.T. (3/1/2002)
