by Roger Petri of Mac & Ray's:
Jordan "J" Sonoma County ...

is remarkably intense and com-
plex, displaying fruit and spice
on the palate and a full, flavor-
ful finish. This would be consid-
ered full bodied with a creamy
texture. Approximately $23.
****Outstanding.

caise" Champagne NV Brut ...
One of France's foremost cham-
pagne producers, Taittinger pre-
sents this light-bodied, elegant
champagne which offers hints of
apple, spice and vanilla on the
palate. It is lively and has finesse
in a lingering finish. $38.
****Outstanding.
Rutherford Hill Zinfandel Port
1990 ... This American port is
made from the native Zinfandel
grape. With berry, pepper and
spice, the full-bodied red wine
makes for a delicious aperitif and
is drinkable now with hints of
tawny oakiness. $15. ****Out-
standing.

continues to make blockbuster
cabernets at a reasonable price.
This one has it all — full body,
rich black/ruby color, with hints

toasty oak. Moderate tannins
give this wine a long, velvety fin-
ish. $17. "t"Classic.
