This wine is soft and rounded. It does have plenty of acidity but that is only a part of a ripe, smooth whole. The lemon fruitiness and touch of spice give the aftertaste a great lift.

This red blend from Hungary is garnet in color with aromas of cranberry and black cherry. Flavors suggest tart cherry and pomegranate juice, with grippy tannins and an acidic finish.

Possibly too rich, this is a full, sumptuous wine. It has great weight, density, a smooth, wood-aged character that shows through the sweet plums. For what it is, a very rich wine that shows some pep…

A fresh and fruity wine with soft tannins and black currant fruits. The wine has the warmth of the vintage, giving some roundness the texture and stalkiness which would be more apparent in a lesser v…

Firmly tannic, the wine shows the structure of the vintage well. It also brings out red berry fruits, with a herbal character that cuts the richness. The wine needs time, so drink from 2015.

A sweet blend of Gros Manseng and Sauvignon Blanc, this wine boasts smooth, attractively honeyed fruit, along with a penetrating burst of acidity. Pineapple, peach and apple flavors blend well togeth…

Not very expressive, but this wine's fragrance does reveal delicate aromas of rose and berry, which carry over to the palate. It doesn't have quite enough fruit richness to support the vigorous, almo…

Bacca Bianca from the vineyards of Tenuta di Budonetto, is a blend of Inzolia, Grecanico and Chardonnay. This wine is slightly muddled aromatically, but it does possess a fresh, zesty mouthfeel.

Seems as though this medium-sweet Viura-Malvasia blend has gotten better in recent years as the winery has dialed down the sweetness and weight. Lately, this vintage included, Satinela has been fresh…

The tough conditions of the 2008 vintage are reflected in this scratchy wine. Plum is the key fruit aroma, and that's followed by a tight, firm body with toasty oak, black fruit flavors, herbal notes…

A terrific value wine, La Piazza (in a screw cap bottle) is a blend of Merlot and Nero d'Avola. Bright aromas of cinnamon, Spanish cedar, mocha, black cherry and bitter almond have a raw, vinous qual…

Not really dry, but off-dry to semi-sweet, with pleasant flavors of citrus fruits, peaches, brioche, vanilla and spice. Nice with fresh fruit and sweet country ham.

A blend of all five Bordeaux varieties, this wine is dry and a bit rustic. It shows pepper and thyme-infused flavors of blackberries and currants, finished with some astringent tannins. Drink soon.

This is an over-soft wine, without real bite or crispness. It is pleasantly creamy, with almond flavors and a full mousse, but the soft character continues right through to the finish.

This Cuvée Royale delivers candy-like notes of sweet honeysuckle and butterscotch. It is a luminous and fresh wine with a clean and simple mouthfeel backed a touch of tangy spice that is driven by th…

Full-bodied, tannic, juicy-fruity and dry, this red blend has flavors of blackberries, plums, dark chocolate and anise, with spicy, earthy notes of tobacco. Made from Primitivo, Zinfandel and Terolde…

This is a mature, wood-aged wine. It is rich in yellow fruits and toast flavors. It does retain a crisper, citrus side that keeps it fruity. The wines are vegan (no animal products in production). It…

The fact that there is 60% Cabernet Franc in this blend gives the wine a real perfumed attractiveness. It is fruity and light, with a crisp lively character. Red berries and plenty of acidity leave a…

The wine is full of bright fruit and acidity. It does still have a dry tannic core that gives it a firm character. The juicy acidity and crisp texture show it is still young. Drink from late 2017.

A Sauvignon Blanc-dominated wine that is crisp while also having some weight and fatness from the Sémillon in the blend. It is full of fruit, with lemon and crisp apple flavors. The aftertaste is tig…
