Here’s a softly smooth, polished Cabernet for drinking now. Blended with 20% Merlot, it has approachable flavors of berries, mocha, cassis and toasty oak.

Fresh and jammy in raspberries, cherries and blackberries, this wine trades complexity for sheer fruity power and lusciousness. Drink now.

Mostly Merlot, with some Cabernet Sauvignon, this blend starts out a bit angular, so give it some air before drinking. Although it’s not an ager, it shows pleasantly ripe blackberry, cherry, mocha, herb and spice flavors.

This is a good, everyday Sauvignon Blanc. It’s sweet and jammy in pineapples, grapefruits, peaches and tangerines, brightened with crisp acidity.
