This is very solid, with a gutsy core of plum, blackberry and raspberry fruit that gets tamed by sweet spice and a melted licorice snap note on the polished finish. Approachable, but with the stuffing to cellar a bit as well. Drink now through 2015. 1,000 cases imported. —James Molesworth
Rich and lightly toasty, with firm, citrusy acidity framing the quince paste, kumquat, brioche and spice notes. It's lightly creamy and refined in texture, with a nut-tinged finish. Drink now through 2020. 4,000 cases made. —Alison Napjus
Lively and fresh, this focused red offers plum, mineral, sanguine and tobacco notes backed by firm tannins and good acidity. Though supple, this drives through the spicy finish. Drink now through 2020. 2,000 cases imported. —Thomas Matthews
A rich, creamy style that features ripe fig, peach and honeydew melon, with broad, expansive texture and good length. Retains its elegance and finesse, ending with a smoky roasted marshmallow note. Drink now through 2018. 2,723 cases made. —James Laube
Supple, with a tinge of tannins around generous cherry, orange peel and black tea flavors, finishing with refinement. Drink now through 2017. 500 cases made. —Harvey Steiman
