What a great color on this ripe, full-flavored wine. It opens with heaps of blackberry and green olive aromas and moderate smoky oak. In the mouth, it has good berry extract, and is most notable for its dry, elegant harmony. Finishes syrupy.

Yummy. Exotically rich, ripe fruit marks this expressive, polished wine. Apple, peach, pear, vanilla, and toast highlight the aroma, and it drinks extravagantly rich without being over the top. The finish is complex and harmonious.

A fine effort, brimming with bright, clean lemony fruit, as well as spiced apple, pear, and vanilla. It’s light on the oak, and drinks very clean and supple, with impressive depth. Low alcohol (12.1%) keeps it light and enjoyable.

This dry, earthy wine succeeds with soft but intricate tannins and bracing acidity, together with a rich, hearty mouthfeel. The fruit could be a little more polished. Nonetheless this wine is complex, and a good companion to a wide range of foods.

Primarily from the High Plains and Hill Country, a fruity-citrusy-figgy wine with a nice cut of smoky apricot. Drinks quite full-bodied and rich, and very dry, with pretty acidity, and then turns tartly crisp on the finish.

Llano Estacado 1999 Passionelle Red
- Online Exclusive
- $9
A Rhone blend of Carignane, Syrah, and Viognier, it has pretty aromas of spicy raspberries and smoky vanilla, with a rich herbaceousness suggesting rhubarb and fresh tomato. The color is a dark rose, and it drinks fruity and soft. You could put a bit of a chill on it.
