2013 Estate Vineyard Chambourcin
Medium garnet color. Fruity, minerally aromas and flavors of spiced mulberries, stewed prunes, star anise, and flint with a slightly chewy, lively, medium-full body and a peppery, intricate, medium-length finish with well-integrated, earthy tannins and a suggestion of oak flavor. Nice nose, flavors follow with a lingering finish.

Bright light garnet color. Fruity, toasty, funky aromas and flavors of dark berries - mulberries, sandalwood, raspberries, and fruitcake with a supple, soft, dry-yet-fruity full body and a warming, intricate, medium-length finish with well-integrated, woody tannins and light oak flavor. Nice rich round flavors and the finely grained tannins.

Nearly opaque dusty ruby color. Toasty, yeasty, fruity aromas and flavors of scorched earth, black licorice, and ripe mulberries with a slightly chewy, crisp, dry-yet-fruity full body and a peppery, refreshing, carefree finish with earthy tannins and a suggestion of oak flavor. Round rich flavors, especially in the mid-palate.

Golden straw color. Earthy, fruity aromas and flavors of green nectarine, waxy lemon, and grassy leafy earth with a silky, bright, fruity light-to-medium body and a seamless, interesting, medium-length finish with accents of delicate spiced apple and lychee, sweet cream, and praline with fine, fruit tannins and no oak flavor. A tasty, delicately floral white sipper.
