Vinen har en rustikk, låveaktig karakter som kanskje vil forsvinne over tid. Foreløpig er frukten dempet og lagvis med tørre tanniner og syre. Den kan utvikle seg, så vent til 2017.
Alle de fem røde Bordeaux-druetypene er representert her, med de største andelene av Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot og Malbec, i nesten like proporsjoner. Grillrøyk kommer først inn i bildet, med e…
Søvning og tanninrik, denne vinen er unnvikende i frukten både aromatisk og på ganen, og viser mer grønne, urteaktige karakterer enn kirsebær eller bær. Likevel er den svært fyldig og kraftig pakket…
Even for the rich 2015 vintage, this is an excessive wine. Made from superripe Merlot with high extraction, it adds dark chocolate flavors to its rich, juicy blackberry jelly fruit, feeling too big a…
Firm tannins and overripe fruit dominate this wine. It will not develop well, with those tannins remaining tough.
Earthy smelling, with black-fruit aromas that sit heavy in the glass. The palate pushes black cherry flavors and outsized acidity, and it only gets sharper on the back palate and finish. Flavorful an…
Even at six-plus years, and despite its origin in superstar grower's Beckstoffer's vineyards, this Cab has an imbalanced sweetness. The sugariness of the blackberry flavors accentuates the tannins, m…
Soft and sweetly gentle, this everyday wine has likeable flavors of black cherries, raspberries, chocolate, dates and black pepper. Blend is Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, Petite Sirah.
Medium-bodied and nearly completely dry, this is a stony, minerally expression of Riesling that even folds in some slightly earthy-peaty notes. Hints of citrus fall a bit short on the finish.
Tasting of lemonade, this Lodi Chardonnay veers sour in uneven layers, finishing in toasty vanilla oak. A perfect wine for casual get togethers.
At this price with Pinot Noir, you never know what you're going to get. Chime's track record is all over the board. With this 2012 vintage, their California Pinot Noir is average, and fairly priced.…
The 16% by volume alcohol on this Zin is high even by Wilson's standards. It gives the wine a burn that it does not wear well. The body and flavors aren't rich enough to carry the heat, the way that…
Veteran chef Puck lends his name here to a quaffable wine. It's a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and several other varieties. The mouthfeel is soft with luscious flavors veering toward cherry pi…
Saucy aromas of stewed plum and tomato ragu lack clarity. This is midlevel Cabernet, with a light bounce to its step. Generic cherry, cassis and licorice flavors finish with acidic kick but no sense…
Ripe and rich, but rather heavy and softly sweet, this wine lacks the vibrancy and elegance you want in a fine Pinot Noir, especially at this price. It's a decent everyday wine, with cola, rhubarb pi…
A tough, gritty wine, with hard, scoury tannins and the kind of brambly, briary wild berry flavors you might find in a Zinfandel. Finishes with peppery, sandpapery roughness. Might develop in the bot…
Shows the dry astringency, sharp acidity and bitterness of a fine, young Petite Sirah, with currant and pepper flavors accented with smoky oak. Doesn't seem likely to develop, so drink now with heart…
Oak dominates this wine, towering over everything else and offering a strong dose of caramel, hardened by wood tannins. There are some good cherry and red currant flavors, but they're swamped by the…
Moderate red cherry aromas are about as expressive as it gets, while the palate has a sharp scour to it even if the wine avoids outright tartness. Snappy and crisp at all check points, with a spot of…
Morande is the biggest producer of Pinot Noir in Casablanca Valley, and this entry-level bottling is a good value to boot. Earthy, forest-fire aromas coat black cherry notes in the bouquet; the palat…
This Bordeaux white is heavily oaked, and it's therefore overloaded with coconut aromas, creamy custard and pear flavors, and a taste of banana on the finish. At every point along the way the wood to…
An interesting Chard that offers quite sweet notes of stewed peaches, orange marmalade and overripe honeydew. Big and a bit clumsy in the mouth, more vibrancy and freshness is needed to keep things i…
Hard and inky on first blush, with aromas of shoe polish and wild, aggressive fruit. A far more narrow and acidic wine than we expected to find, with racy, short, blue fruit flavors. Bright and chopp…
