Cola, graphite, and cranberry come through on the nose. Black cherry cola leads, followed by plum and graphite. These are brightened with a touch of cranberry on the mid-palate. The deeper flavors flow through to the finish. Drink with black bean burgers. Recommended. 87 Points. WHO: Vineland Estates Winery WHAT: Pinot

This is all about the mouth-feel, silky, soft, and luxurious. Flavors start with blueberries and elderberries, soft dark fruits. Moving toward the mid-palate it evolves, turning first to cherry pie, then moving up to the edge of the pie to the sugary pastry edges. Tannins a very soft, laying gently

Hugely floral, violets fly up from the glass, followed by black fruits and graphite. Black fruits and violets lead on the palate, followed by the same pencil lead and grippy tannins. Red currants show on the mid-palate, a bright acidic lift that brings the violets back into focus. Drink with

The nose is interesting, showing black fruit, blackberry and elderberry, sweet cherry, and charred wood. Blackberry and raspberry are together with black pepper on the palate. More shows on the mid-palate, as sage, lavender, and then smoked meat come through. The florals, spices, and meat flavors linger on the finish.

This is a white wine that seems to kaleidoscopic around as you sip it and as you pair it with different foods. It begins with a piquant, herby nose.  When the wine warms a little, some rich, tropical fruit appears in the aroma and flavor.  And the finish evolves too,

Black cherry and raspberry tart in a glass. This lovely Merlot is sweet, tart, and bright, with gently affirmative tannins and seamless structure. A mix of red fruits balance sweet juicy flavors with bright tartness, floating above a vanilla pastry crust with a pinch of nutmeg. The Cabernet Franc adds
