Vinanmeldelser

This wine's strawberry jam aromas lead to a palate dominated by tannins. It's dry and missing fruit.

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…

This lightly sweet and simple wine tastes straightforward, very fruity, soft in texture and light to medium in body.

Dry, firm and tough, this wine lacks the fruit fruit to come through the structure. It's a wine for those who like plenty of wood.

Prune, grilled herb and a whiff of salted-game aromas carry over to the light-bodied palate along with dried black cherry and a hint of clove. It's über-simple, with loose fleeting tannins.

This crisp blend of Arinto and Fernão Pires is light and fruity. Acidity and a lively mousse make for an attractive bright wine, with toast and almonds at the end. Drink now.

Firm tannins and overripe fruit dominate this wine. It will not develop well, with those tannins remaining tough.

Heavily wood aged, this wine is tough and dry, with aggressive toast flavors. The concentration is there but is not from fruit.

Overripe, jammy fruit aromas and flavors spoil this wine. It's oddly balanced: soft on the one hand and tough on the other.

Smoky aromas from wood aging show again strongly in the tough wooden plank notes that dominate this wine. It's a shame, because the fruit is there.

Stalky black currant fruit aromas and a spicy, stalky character on the palate define this tight, dry wine. It's young and tough now, so give it another year and drink from 2018.

Strong spicy meaty aromas and equally assertive oak and char flavors threaten to overwhelm the fruity aspects of this dry wine but it has enough concentration to match the firm tannins. Best after 20…

Showing a bit of evolution, The Turk features hints of leather and beef alongside blackberry and cassis. It's reasonably complex for the price, but dries out a bit on the finish, suggesting it may be…

Balanced wine, the tight tannins fitting well into the black currant fruits, the texture coming from plum skins, damsons and some fresh, bright acidity.

A solid effort, this basic red blend features mint accents layered over slightly herbal cassis aromas and flavors. It's medium-bodied, with silky tannins on the finish. Drink now.

Grassy floral aromas are aromatic but unrefined. This sparkling Chardonnay tastes of lime and wild flowers, with bitterness to the back end of the flavor profile. A sulfuric note of scrambled egg ris…

This is a typical sweet rosé from Anjou. A light and fruity blend of Groslot and Gamay, it is sugary but has attractive acidity to balance the sweet wild-strawberry flavors. Drink now.

This wine is dark, sweet and slightly effervescent in texture. It has an inky color, aromas like Concord-grape juice and roses, and jammy flavors.

Finely balanced, simple Sauternes with light apricot and honey flavors. With just a touch of botrytis dryness, the aftertaste is more sweet.

You get decent value and plenty of intensity in this 90-10 Sangiovese-Cab blend. The wine offers bright tones of fruit and toasted nut, while the mouthfeel is simple and a bit thorny.

A classic Portuguese blend of Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz and Touriga Franca, this is a medium-bodied wine with good structure and presence of tannin. Bright fruit flavors of red currant, cherry an…

Lightweight, with more dryness than richness, this wine is lightly sweet, hinting at botrytis, with apple and cream flavors touched by honey.

Apple and spice aromas come in front of a soft palate. Melony flavors are short on zest and finish abruptly.

Made from Pinot Noir, this is an orange-tan color and offers dried, oxidized aromas of orange and tangerine. Foamy and coarse on the palate, with a sour-orange flavor, it finishes without much verve.
