Light gold in the glass. The nose seemed to be predominantly cereal/grains with a touch of oak. Medium-full bodied with tangy apple and pear fruit. Seems to finish somewhat oaky and raw to my palate, but per Craig H. this saw only 25% new.

Translucent, slightly cloudy bright garnet in the glass. Stemmy nose with a sharp, spicy black cherry background. Medium bodied with earthy, reticent fruit on the palate. Finishes a little short. This is 80% Pommard clone.

Translucent dark ruby garnet in the glass. Tasting this along side the Rodger's Creek of the same vintage this seems riper and more fruit driven (which I like). Creamy black cherry fruit nose. Medium-full bodied with juicy fruit on the palate. Decent length. 92-93.

Opaque dark garnet in the glass. Somewhat savory aromatically with black currants, tea, and black raspberry. Medium-full bodied and fairly luscious on the palate with nice length and an herbal note in the finish. Good, but pricey IMO.

Opaque dark garnet in the glass. Tasted alongside the 2010 Beckstoffer this is more red currant oriented and generally more fruit driven (and or perhaps a bit less "serious"). Medium-full bodied with a touch of bay/herb on the palate. Pretty good. 91-92.
