Dark and juicy, with a bright edge to the red berry and black cherry flavors, hinting at chocolate and chile pepper as the finish rolls on easily against crisp tannins. Best from 2014 through 2019. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 560 cases made. —Harvey Steiman
This muscular red is full-bodied and structured, with powerful tannins supporting a smoky, toasty character that's harmonious but austere. Hints of cherry, vanilla and rose emerge on the finish. Needs some time. Best after 2014. 4,500 cases made. —Thomas Matthews
The dense, racy flavors of raspberry ganache are finely textured, with tobacco and pleasant herbal undertones. Powerful yet graceful, in need of decanting or short-term cellaring. Best from 2014 through 2020. 12,500 cases imported. —Nathan Wesley
Ripe and focused, with boysenberry and toffee aromas, offering layered huckleberry, pepper and fresh sage flavors. The tannins sneak in on the finish. Drink now through 2018. 5,114 cases made. —Tim Fish
Fresh and focused, this is nicely finessed to deliver intense currant, red berry and goji berry flavors against hints of white pepper and clove. Gently slides its tannins into the finish. Drink now through 2019. 966 cases made. —Harvey Steiman
