Imagery 2001 Sunny Slope Vineyard Merlot (Sonoma Valley)
  1. $29
Imagery has worked hard with this vineyard, and in this near-perfect vintage has crafted a very good wine. It’s young, thick and juicy, with elaborate fruit flavors and oak, and a touch of brashness. Best to leave it alone for a few years.  — S.H.  (10/1/2004)

Imagery 1999 Sunny Slope Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon (Sonoma Valley)
  1. $35
A good, richly flavored Cabernet that shows proper varietal character without any special qualities. Flavors of blackcurrants drink dry, wrapped in smooth tannins. May improve a bit with a few years in the cellar.  — S.H.  (8/1/2003)

Imagery 1999 Sunny Slope Vineyard Merlot (Sonoma Valley)
  1. $29
Dark and extracted, with jammy berry flavors and a strongly earthy component, including tobacco, sage and tree bark. In the mouth this wine is very dry and pretty tannic, although the acidity is soft. A bit awkward, and not likely to improve in the cellar.  — S.H.  (8/1/2003)

  1. $35
Good as it is, this wine is having acidity problems, meaning it’s overly soft and melted. Yes, it has delicious flavors of black cherries, chocolate and oak, and the tannins are smooth and luxurious, but what about balance?  — S.H.  (12/15/2005)
