A really great mountain Zinfandel that shows luscious power and fruit at a fair price. The flavors of blackberries, cherries, currants, oranges, cloves and white pepper flood the palate and are just wonderful to experience. At this price, buy this Zin by the case.——S.H.(10/1/2008)—— 88

A superb value, the 2004 Zinfandel Pokerville (a blend of 90% Zinfandel and 10% Grenache) is a California rendition of a French Cotes du Rhone. Medium ruby-hued, soft, and pretty, with copious notes of pepper, black cherries, and raspberries, it is a well-made, clean, medium-bodied Zin to enjoy over the next year. Tel. (209) 245-3922

I love this wine for its smooth, full-bodied exuberance, the way it just takes over the palate and rules. Flavors of wild berries, bitter dark chocolate and coffee are fat and fleshy, and best of all, totally dry, without being overly alcoholic. This is one of the best Zin buys of the year.——S.H.(3/1/2006)—— 89

Earthy and peppery, with grilled meat and dried cherry notes. You’ll find pleasant cherry flavors in this dry red wine——S.H.(3/1/2005)—— 85

Karly has turned out a super value with their offering called Pokerville. It is a straightforward, richly fruity, full-bodied Zinfandel bursting with fruit, glycerin, and heady alcohol. While there is not much complexity, the wine is immensely satisfying, as well as mouthfilling. Drink it over the next several years. No one can deny that Karly's Zinfandels offer a lot of bang for your buck. Tel. 209-245-3922.
