Aging California 0-7 Year

Aging California 0-7 Year

The New World styled big fruit wines have yet to demonstrate whether they will be ageworthy or not, so one should stick to the classically made California reds of which a few of the excellent choices are Chateau Montelena, Ridge “Monte Bello”, Joseph Phelps Insignia, and Dominus. Robert Parker and The Wine Spectator’s James Laube have recently begun tasting mature examples of wines they reviewed 10-15 years ago and the results of their predictions are quite mixed concerning California’s age-worthy reds of the last 20 years, and their revisionist scoring in quite illuminating for those attempting to understand and gauge California wine’s age worthiness.

Central Coast Tous Les Jours Syrah
ST90
The Syrah for this wine came from Paso Robles and their Estate vineyard. This is the 8th vintage of this wine. This wine was aged for 11 months in a mix of new and 1-3 year old French oak barriques. This inky-hued, full-bodied wine has lots of fruit and spice and is highly drinkable right now, however, it will reward the patient with another couple years of aging.

Cloverdale Ranch Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
The 2007 vintage of our Cloverdale Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon is classically structured with the unmistakable aromas of currents, black cherries, tobacco, and violets. That classic structure supports all this complexity and promises elegance over the next 10 years.

The 2007 growing season was marked by a warm end of summer which brought the fruit to a near-perfect level of ripeness by early September. All the wine was fermented in small open-top fermentors and punched down twice daily during the three-week maceration. After pressing, the wine was racked to a combination of French, Hungarian and American oak where it spent the next 19 months.
2007 $21.99

Santa Ynez Valley Estate Grown Syrah

Lightly gamy, faintly brushy and just a bit sharp in this nose, this coarse and very dry wine suffers from a real shortfall in fruit and winds up dull and bitter with an oddly tangy edge to its finish.

California Zinfandel   Zinfandel
Fragrant floral notes of black fruit, spice and black pepper set the stage for this lush old vine Zinfandel. Extremely rich and well structured with more exotic fruit characteristics than most Zinfandels, the wine’s profile is centered on a core of ripe blackberry and boysenberry with notes of cherry kirsch, clove and pepper. The extremely approachable finish displays dense layers of boysenberry jam and cocoa powder.

Small amounts of petite sirah and alicante bouschet add texture and color to the field blend and the winery chooses to hand-harvest late into the season when some of the berries have raisined, intensifying the wine's character.
