  Smoky tar and oak meet baked huckleberry in this soft, textured and lengthy wine from this great family of grape growers. Moderate acidity allows for a ripe, full-bodied expression of the variety.

  Light and clear in color, this wine opens with a reduced barrel expression, but settles down to reveal soft, earthy and tangy layers of persimmon, cranberry and black tea. Lengthy and medium bodied, it shines most in terms of texture, falling somewhere between silky and velvety.

  Earth and mushroom dominate this lighter-style wine, offering aromas and flavors of forest floor and fresh soil, and even a taste of black tea shyly dancing in the background. Well-balanced and complex, it has a silky texture and long, smooth finish.

  This is for drinking now with chicken or beef tacos. It defines the approachable style of drink-me-now Pinot Noir, with rich, complex flavors of raspberry and cherry jam, vanilla, buttered toast and cinnamon. The silky texture and vibrant acidity are nearly perfect.

  Delicious is the word for this single-vineyard wine, which is a rich blast of raspberry and cherry pie, cola, milk chocolate and sweet, caramelized oak flavors. The alcohol is quite high, but the wine wears it well. Give it a few hours of decanting.
