USA, California, Central Coast, Paso Robles Adelaida District
Medium yellow in color, clear, moderate aroma intensity showing some age. Primarily notes of lime, and oak/musty quality. Off-dry, medium to full-bodied, and fresh acidity. Shorter finish.
Medium straw color, weak aroma intensity but shows some age. Butter, green apple and oak on the nose. Moderate finish, overall well balanced and a good value.
medium salmon color, weak aroma, smells like ripe strawberry and roses. Sweet, medium body, flabby acidity. Tastes like watermelon jolly ranchers. I hope this isn't what I'm into 40+ years from now.
Medium salmon color, moderate-weak aromas of lemon and tart cherry. Off-dry, with light body and lively acidity. On the palette, sour grapefruit. A little tart on acidity and flavor.

Deep garnet color, moderate aroma intensity. Shows some age, with notes of moss/sweet fern, a little smoke, and tart blackberry. Dry, with light body and fresh acidity. Moderate, soft tannins and flavors of tart cherry, cloves, and cedar. Moderate finish. Could have used a bit more backbone of acidity for my palette!
Medium garnet, moderate aroma intensity showing some age: notes of plum, oak. Dry, with medium body, lively acidity, and moderately weak, soft tannins. Flavors of cranberry-rasberry. Well balanced, and long finish.
deep ruby color, moderate aroma intensity showing some age. Earty notes, warm spices like cinnamon, and a hint of green pepper. Dry, medium bodied and lively acidity. Moderately strong, astringent tannins. Wonder if it might benefit from further aging/decanting?
