“93 points. This wine exhibits plenty of plum, black cherry and blackcurrant fruit, mocha and coffee bean in a lush, delicious and opulently textured style. It is drinking beautifully already and will continue to evolve for another decade or more.” – Robert Parker, Wine Advocate

"Complex aromas of black berry fruits, black stone fruits, chocolate, tobacco, spice and floral notes with a mineral overtone. On the palate the wine has a big silky mouth feel, well balanced, with flavors of berries, fruit, cocoa, cassis, and spice, and a long spicy finish." - Brix26

"94 points. The resulting wine is a big, world-class red wine capable of improving with bottle aging for 10 to 15 years... On the palate, the wine has a big silky mouthfeel, well balanced, with flavors of berries, fruit, cocoa, cassis, and spice, and a long spicy finish." - Brix26

"94 points. The Merlot is once again a blend of Estate Merlot and Estate Cabernet Sauvignon. The resulting wine is a big, world-class red wine capable of improving with bottle aging for 10 to 15 years... On the palate the wine has a big silky mouth feel, well balanced, with flavors of berries, fruit, cocoa, cassis, and spice, and a long spicy finish." - Brix26

The 2017 Paloma Cabernet Sauvignon shares multiple layers of dark fruit, anise and rich tones of cocoa.  The alluring aromas are followed by a rich, silky mouthfeel with subtle notes of pomegranate.  This beautiful expression of Spring Mountain fruit offers immediate enjoyment and promises continued pleasure.  Enjoy this offering with a sumptuous meal of barbecue pork and crème brûlée for dessert.

The 2017 Paloma Merlot fills the glass with luscious aromas of dark, ripe plum, blackberry, and hints of thyme. On the palate, the wine presents a rich, hearty mouthfeel, with consistent notes of ripe, black fruits and a pleasingly, lingering finish. Showing beautifully in its youth, this offering will evolve seamlessly, offering years of enjoyment. While an ideal candidate for pairing with a broad range of rich foods, the 2017 Merlot is a meal in itself.  

The 2018 Paloma Cabernet Sauvignon emerges from the glass with beautiful waves of dark, black fruits, anise, and subtle notes of flint and black pepper. This is a rich, concentrated wine that presents a dense texture while filling the mouth with deep, lush flavors of ripe plum, dark cherry liqueur, and cocoa dust. The wine completes the promise with a silky, smooth, lingering finish. Given the heritage of Paloma Spring Mountain fruit, one should expect this Cabernet to offer many years of total enjoyment.

The 2018 is a luscious Merlot. In the glass, the color exhibits deep garnet tones. On the nose, you're greeted with notes of violet, dark fruit, black licorice, and pepper. On the palate, you'll note signs of hearty ripe plums, black olives, anise, and a finish of rich, dark chocolate. This would pair beautifully with grilled steak, portobello mushrooms, and strong-flavored cheese!

The 2018 Paloma Ode to Barbara is the perfect homage to Barbara Richards. The backbone of 54% Cabernet in the final blend reminds one of Barbara's strength, work ethic, and dedication to the vineyard, while the 44% Merlot reminds us of the soft-spoken woman who politely welcomed visitors into her home to taste wines on the deck with a swarm of hummingbirds dancing in the background. The wine opens with an exotic nose of blueberries, anise, ripe plum, and eucalyptus. On the palate, this is a full-bodied offering that entices with flavors of bing cherries, black licorice, black pepper, and a hint of cumin. Very approachable on release and easy to consume, the taster's patience will be rewarded by revisiting the wine multiple times over several hours – engaging in the friendly tug-of-war between the Merlot and Cabernet components. It's only appropriate, as Barbara was never one to back down during a spirited debate. Brava, Barbara Richards.
