McKenzie-Mueller 2004 Reserve Pinot Grigio (Carneros)

  1. $16
There’s no oak at all in this wine, so what you get is pure lime, kiwi and nectarine fruit flavor and high, bright acids. It’s bone dry, with absolutely no sugar on the finish. What a refreshing wine.  — S.H.  (2/1/2006)

McKenzie-Mueller 2001 Cabernet Franc (Napa Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $28
Nice and ripe, with black cherry and vanilla flavors and a mouth-warming feel that's partly the result of the body, partly due to soft tannins and acids. Brings to mind those luscious, likeable wines of Chinon.  — S.H.  (7/1/2005)

McKenzie-Mueller 2001 Merlot (Carneros)

Comes down on the rustic side, but offers pleasant flavors of cherries, roast coffee and cocoa, in a dry wine.  — S.H.  (7/1/2005)

Clean and decent, but hard to recommend. Bone dry, astringent and heavy in coffee and cherry flavors.  — S.H.  (7/1/2005)

Harsh and difficult, with dry tannins and a gluey mouthfeel that makes the blackberry flavors taste medicinal.  — S.H.  (7/1/2005)

Harsh, with burnt cherry notes that make the tannins and acids stick out. No major flaws, but it's hard to like.  — S.H.  (7/1/2005)

Flawed. Smells and tastes dirty and funky, with medicinal cherry flavors.  — S.H.  (7/1/2005)
