Previous vintage tasting notes

Tanzer 90 points "Medium red. Smoky red berry and cherry compote aromas are complicated by sassafras and herbal notes, along with a hint of cola. Fleshy and round, offering sweet black raspberry and candied cherry flavors, supple tannins and slow-building spiciness. Clings impressively on the finish and strongly repeats the cherry note."

Lemelson's Thea's Selection is a blend of fruit from Lemelson's six vineyards. The wine is heavily scented and has fresh, sweet fruit flavors.

"Thea's is the measuring stick of our success as growers and vintners. As a blend from blocks in each of our vineyards, it expresses the vintage and our values more than any other wine. The 2006 Thea's is more fragrant than we remember. The nose combines floral aromas of roses and violets with raspberry, framboise, boysenberry and briary, earthy tones. The palate is sweetly fruited with plum, black cherry and blueberry showing on the rich mid-palate, while the finish remains lively and fresh with subtle tarragon and earth." - The Winery
