Waxy stone-fruit aromas come with a shot of butterscotch but also a whiff of chemical cleanser. In the mouth, this blend of Viura and Malvasia is full-bodied and braced by sharp acidity. Flavors of w…

Smells sort of furry and earthy initially, with notes of graphite and woodspice. Feels narrow and grabby, with pointed acididty framing red plum, cherry and lightly oaky, minty flavors. Fits the defi…

A yeasty, bready nose and a fairly flat palate are not all that vibrant. This cava tastes yeasty like the aromas suggest, but also offers a bitter melon flavor component on the way to a soft, wayward…

An almost colorless luster and oily aromas of green apple set the stage for this stony, lean SB. Briny, citric flavors are common but limited, while the finish is similar, only lighter.

A fruity Port, with plum and spice character, very jammy and sweet. Touches of tannin and acidity give balance to make the wine ripe, soft and full in the mouth.

This wine, for Maule PN, is a consistent, proven value. It's lightly perfumed and peppery on the nose, with herb and leather hints. Has a good body, smooth tannins and acidity, and earthy flavors of…

Aromas of sweat and sea water are more pyrazine-based than fruity. This is racy and sharp in feel, with briny salty flavors of lemon and green herbs. Throughout, this cutting SB is more salty tasting…

Herbal plum and olive aromas come with dry spicy oak notes. All in all, this holds up well on the palate, which offers herbal spicy plum flavors. A minty finish with a black-olive character doesn't h…

Saline aromas, celery notes and mild citrus scents make up the nose on this slightly round SB. Herbal green-fruit flavors finish with controlled pyrazinic bitterness.

This is a good yet basic Merlot with baked berry aromas. The mouthfeel is more lively and raw in feel, with modest berry and spice flavors that hit quick and hollow at just as quickly. A standard fin…

From a warm year, this smells toasty and oaky more than anything. In the mouth, core acidity is driving and creates a sharp, racy feel, while woody flavors of tropical fruits and melon finish with oa…

From a hot year with an early harvest, this Sauvignon smells green and ashy, like asparagus mixed with green tobacco. In the mouth, spunky acidity suggests sharpness, while tangy flavors of nectarine…

Kind of big for a value wine, with aromas of plum and berry along with shoe polish and chocolate. The palate has some richness but not too much depth or weight, while the flavors of blackberry and ba…

Despite a mild green character, this is mostly a solid, saturated wine. The nose has lettuce, pepper and berry scents, and the palate is racy and snappy, with red fruit and herbal accents. It's compe…

This is a dry, firm wine with concentrated tannins along with dark chocolate and bitter coffee flavors. It is going to need some time, so wait to drink until 2018.

Dry, leathery aromas precede a grabby but fresh palate. Tomato and plum flavors are in the lead, with herbal, soupy notes running close behind. Similar to the primary attack, this finishes herbal and…

Full, rik og på den tørre siden, denne er full av modne bærsmaker, og den har en kjerne av faste tanniner og et hint av syre. Den avslutter tørt.

Mørke, sprø aromaer av krydderkirsebær, mynte og svart oliven leder til en livlig, frisk gane med sterk syre og eike-, myntebærsmaker blandet med toner av johannesbrød og svart pepper. Oliven, urter…

Varietal riktige aromaer av hvite blomster, litchi og tropiske frukter gir en saftig, kremet smak som har mistet noe av kraften den trolig hadde da den ble tappet på flaske. Smaker av melon, banan og…
