Dried sage and a hint of saddle leather highlight this dry, dusty wine noteworthy for its bright, buoyant acidity and layering of red currant. It delivers plenty of full-bodied flavor within a complex, approachable experience.

Complex, integrated and soft, this wine from fellow winemaker Mike Officer's historic site is lightly spiced in cinnamon and pepper. Dollops of vanilla and blackberry make themselves felt on the palate amid the zest.

Too sweet. Whether that's because of leftover sugar, high alcohol or both, this Zin is more like a Porty dessert wine. It's delicious and rich, but the sweetness has to be counted as a defect.
