Rosa d'Oro 2009 Barbera (Clear Lake)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
A deep, dark, robust Lake County Barbera, tame by Barbera standards, with softened tannins but lots of black licorice, fruit—rustic plum, mostly—and a hint of baked bread. Worth a try with meaty pasta dishes.

Rosa d'Oro 2009 Roumiguiere Sangiovese (Clear Lake)
- $20
This Lake County Sangiovese tastes slightly green and acidified at first before its bright, tight red cherry fruit makes its way through.

Rosa d'Oro 2009 Estate Primitivo (Clear Lake)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
Either this producer is one of the most honest when it comes to listing alcohol levels or this is as close to Port as it gets, a Primitivo that’s got some cherry brightness to it, but gets bogged down by its own bigness.

Rosa d'Oro 2001 Barbera (Lake County)
- $17
Still a tough, bitter wine at 4 years, with a slightly sweet finish. Not going anywhere.

Rosa d'Oro 2002 Syrah (Lake County)
- $16
A little too sweet, too rustic and too soft for a higher score. There are also notes of over-ripeness.

Rosa d'Oro 2008 Estate Grown Primitivo (Clear Lake)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
So acidic it’s sour, and the fruit flavors disappear in a tart swirl of wintergreen. Acceptable, but just barely.

Rosa d'Oro 2001 Primitivo (Lake County)
- $18
Odd and medicinal, with a harsh, burnt taste.

Rosa d'Oro 2008 Estate Grown Barbera (Clear Lake)
- Online Exclusive
- $20
Too sweet in sugary blackberry jam to earn a higher score, but if that’s your liking, go for it.
