Really like the less-common boysenberry and lingonberry fruit that’s familiar yet new. Nice smooth finish, but not much in the way of secondary notes. Good value versus the single vineyard Hobbs options.

Garnet color and just a touch thin across the tongue. Nice cherry fruit, tart at the end, and some strawberry on the second day. Earthy secondary notes that reclaim the finish from tartness. Well done restraint.

Light ruby color, not rose, but headed that way. Cherry and strawberry fruit with a nice ripeness that belies the color. Some secondary cola notes. Nice, clean, short finish. Could be the poster child for a good table wine, and I mean that in a good way.
