DeLorimier’s reds all have tasted sugary-sweet to me lately, which has got to be a conscious decision by management. It’s baffling, because the estate fruit is good, and Alexander Valley is capable of producing superb reds that are fully dry. So what’s going on? ——S.H.(6/1/2007)—— 83

After a good 2000 vintage, DeLorimier's '01 Merlot is a letdown. It's sharp and oaky, and the cherry fruit tastes unnaturally sweetened.——S.H.(8/1/2005)—— 83
