What's love got to do with it? This is pure lust, driven by a blend of mostly Cabernet Franc and Merlot. Huckleberry is fill the glass, with additional aromas of lilacs, leather and black ink. Blackberries dominate the palate, joined by dollops of orange citrus, nutmeg and black tea. Zippy acidity holds it all together. Michael Alberty

What Is Blind Tasting?

All tastings reported in the Buying Guide are performed blind. Typically, products are tasted in peer-group flights of from 5-8 samples. Reviewers may know general information about a flight to provide context—vintage, variety or appellation—but never the producer or retail price of any given selection. When possible, products considered flawed or uncustomary are retasted.
