A bit too oaky for balance, with a strong toasted wood aroma and flavor that smothers the underlying fruit flavors of currants, cherries, blackberries and plums. Pretty tannic, too, but doesn’t seem to have the stuffing for ageability. ——S.H.(12/15/2008)—— 85

From the longtime winemaker at Thomas Fogarty in the Santa Cruz Mountains comes this lush fruit bomb from Mendocino. Cedar and vanilla mark the nose, but the palate couches ripe plummy fruit in a cradle of vanilla. Finishes with a touch of heat. The bad news? Only 76 cases made. ——W.E.(9/1/2005)—— 88
