Make this wine a little drier and the score would rise. As things are, it's just too sweet and one-dimensional in jammy raspberries and cherries, while oak brings buttered toast and roasted coconut f…
A brawny, cherry flavored Zinfandel, big shouldered all around with dense, leathery spicy aromas and flavors, with hints of licorice and bittersweet chocolate. Estate bottled and grown in Napa's Chil…
An attractive price for a straightforward, Amador County Zin, full-bodied and tasting of ripe blackberries and cocoa.
This unusual blend of Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Viognier combines the attributes of crisp acidity and fruitiness. The result is a delicious, fine wine, rich in citrus, apricot and pear flavors…
Another Best Buy Merlot from Bogle. The wine is just as you want a nice Merlot to be, rich and soft and flavorful in cherries, with a kiss of smoky oak.
Prominent oak and butter aromas and flavors give this medium-bodied wine a sweet impression, and its mouthfeel is smooth and soft. It smells like caramel and tastes like pears.
Tartness and moderate tannins lend plenty of mouth-puckering grip to this medium-bodied wine, and that tartness comes off as a touch of raspberry vinegar on the palate. It has an appealing earthy, ir…
Chocolate-covered strawberry meets rich brown sugar and cola notes in this medium-bodied wine that's moderately structured and round. It finishes in a plume of subtle smoky oak.
Candied apple, cantaloupe, plumeria and bubblegum touches show on the nose of this ripe blend of 39% Marsanne, 38% Roussanne and 23% Grenache Blanc. There are strong tropical notes on the palate, inc…
Cedar and resin notes rise to the fore in this full-bodied wine that's basic and hearty, with blackberry and dried herb flavors.
An acidic, bone-dry Chardonnay, brilliant in fruit, that doesn't seem to have been touched by oak. It's so pure in zesty Meyer lemon, lime and kiwi flavors, with a mouthwateringy clean finish.
This is a tasty Pinot Noir, but it's not particularly characteristic of Doctor's Vineyard or Santa Lucia Highlands. It's soft, ripe and sweet, and while the raspberry, cherry and red currant flavors…
Light and pretty with watermelon and faint strawberry notes, Frisk is just slightly fizzy. Its aromas almost trick one into expecting a wine that's sweet, but it finishes dry and is in balance. Made…
A good, if standard, wine that will satisfy Chardophiles who like their wines lush and ripe. It's rich in honey, pineapple, Meyer lemon and peach flavors.
You'll find oaky aromas and flavors of buttered toast, sweet vanilla and butterscotch on this Chardonnay. The underlying fruit is pure and intense, suggesting ripe apricots, green apples and limes, b…
This is an interesting and useful wine, and the price helps make it a bargain. It's pretty close, in texture and flavor, to Pinot Noir, with silky tannins, brisk acids and cherry, cola and cranberry…
After the initial hit of intensely sweet blackberries and oak, there's not a whole lot going on in this 100% Cab. It's high in alcohol, with sweet glycerine and some heat co-starring. The tannins are…
Tastes unusually lush and soft for a Napa Cab. While it's officially dry, sweet, caramelized oak and raspberry-jam flavors, along with a slick, glycerine mouthfeel, makes it as rich as a candy bar.
Lodi-based Michael David turns to Lodi, Sonoma's Dry Creek Valley and Lake County to craft this white wine, mostly Sauvignon Blanc with a drop of Sémillon too. Ready for a summer's day with subtle Ma…
With lemon, orange, apricot and green melon flavors, this is a fruity wine, with tart notes of green gooseberries that make it savory. There's a lot of honey on the finish that makes you wonder if it…
Made from 100% Cab Franc, this is a soft, rather one-dimensional wine. It has complex flavors of cherries, red currants, cola, white pepper and herbs, but is short on structure and interest. Drink no…
There's a tough, gritty feeling in the mouth with this dry, tannic wine. Although it has some rich flavors blackberries and blueberries, it's astringent and hard. Give it a good long decant and drink…
A good, standard Pinot Noir, dry and crisp in acidity, with cherry, cola and pomegranate flavors accented by smoky oak. Drink now.
Lighter than Malibu Oak's Cabernet Sauvignon, this Cab Franc shows the variety's characteristic herby notes and is otherwise easy and light, with enough depth to pair well with a range of meats.
