Floral, grapey aromas and flavors are crisp and focused, with firm tannins and good length, though it lacks a sense of excitement. Drink now through 2004.

A graceful style thatrsquo;s rich and concentrated, with a broad swath of currant, fresh sage, chocolate and black cherry flavors. Firm, herbal tannins and smoky, toasty oak carry through the finish. Drink now through 2007.

Soft and easygoing, with red currant and toasty dill aromas and cherry and herb flavors. Drink now.

Frei has done a very nice job with their 2007 Merlot, an opulent example revealing notions of plums, black cherries, mocha, and coffee beans. With delicious fruit, a full-bodied mouthfeel, and a heady finish, this blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Petite Sirah and Zinfandel should drink well for 4ndash;5 years. It is an excellent value.

Ripe, gentle blackberry flavors fill this wine with an herbal spice. An easy red to pour with beef stew.

Vintage: 2008 01/03/2012

Nicely focused and structured, with appealing black currant and mineral aromas and complex plum, anise and cedar flavors that finish with firm tannins. Drink now through 2016.

The Dry Creek Valley is a warm place to grow Merlot, and this ripe, round, dusty wine ends up tasting more like a zin. A warm and rustic red for cookouts.
