  This wine is explosively juicy in black cherry and pomegranate, finding a way to offer fruity tartness alongside an intensity of savory complexity. Big boned and concentrated, the layers of flavor are complemented by a luxuriously velvety texture.

  From a sloped vineyard in Green Valley, this impressive wine is spicy in cardamom with plenty of forest floor character, a tanginess dominant on the full-bodied palate. Orange zest and cranberry accent fine-tuned tannin and subtle oak.

  Exceptionally rich and ripe in raspberry and cherry jam fruit, brightened by crisp acidity and housed in dusty tannins. Gains extra points for earthy, mushroomy complexity. Give it up to six years in the cellar to resolve its youthful difficulties.

  Like Talisman's other 2008s, this is an easy, gentle wine, marked by ripe, candied raspberry and cherry fruit, enhanced with the sweet caramel and vanilla of oak barrels. Drink now.

  A lovely Pinot Noir, dry and silky and rich, with complex flavors of raspberries, cherries, Dr. Pepper cola, sandalwood and white pepper. Easy to drink now for its sleekness and elegance. Only 296 cases were produced but a single-vineyard wine worth seeking out.
