2019 Sandlands Red Table Wine Contra Costa County
9/26/2023 - malbrecht wrote: 91 Points
Nice balance, some tannins, good acid. Nice fruit up front with notes of blackberry, cherry, and raspberry, transitioning to herbal and some savory notes. 12.8% ABV. Like many of the Sandlands offerings I've tried, this was deftly made and lighter in style than one might expect.

2017 Franz Hirtzberger Riesling Smaragd Setzberg

Notes of apple, lime zest, some salinity, with some flight floral notes. Nice complexity with good acid balance. Everything in place here, probably has at least a decade ahead of it.

2019 Cape Charles Wines Cabernet Sauvignon Columbia Valley

Opens with concentrated notes of blackberry transitioning to toasty vanilla and baking spices. The overall impression was one of blackberry pie, though not as sweet as that. Obviously new world in style. And with plenty of oak treatment. This is perfectly drinkable and is on the sweeter side. It is 14.4% ABV and the lack of substantial tannic structure means that this might be favored by those looking for something "smooth".
