A single-vineyard wine from a top site in Gols. It is darkly solid, a powerful wine that exudes dark figs, firm tannins and big, rich fruit. There is an impressive muscularity about this wine, the ac…

This is a food-friendly Cab. It's made in an elegant style, with fine acidity and firm tannins that frame black and red currant, plum, mocha and cedar flavors. Lovely now, but so balanced, it should…

There is power here, the weight of fruit packing white peach and currant flavors structured around a mineral core. The wine is for aging, with its strong texture, its edge of apple skins and its laye…

This new Syrah from Betz is medium-bodied and displays light details of herb, olive, sage, a hint of lemon verbena, and tight red currant and berry fruit flavors. There is a pretty, finishing kiss of…

Always an interesting wine, Talbott's '03 Diamond T is so distinctive, it's almost eccentric. The candied apricots and cinnamon flavors have a baked pie-filling taste. With high acidity and a mineral…

It's no surprise that excellent icewine is being made in the Niagara region of Canada, but this Vidal offering from Jackson-Triggs is a pleasure nonetheless. With its layered aromas and flavors of or…

This Red Mountain cuvée falls nicely between the winery's Columbia Valley and single-vineyard offerings. Raspberry and cassis fruit, young and compact, is underscored with chalky minerality and sugge…

This substantive Pinot shows definite toasted oak character along with ripe fruit, full body and firm tannins. Hints of oak smoke and caramel waft over the ripe plum aromas. The flavors go to dark ch…

This elegant Barolo shows tight astringency and firm layers of red fruit, spice, crushed stone and tobacco. It needs a few more years to find harmony. Drink after 2018.

A fresh and textural wine, this puts a spicy spin on citrus rind, peach and apricot flavors. There's an intriguing hint of white pepper as well, and an overall sensation of density, intensity and exc…

Intriguing notes of honey, poached pear, apple with drizzled caramel and a light touch of marzipan show on the nose on this bottling that leans somewhat sweet in aromas. But the sip is dry, with Asia…

An aromatic hint of quince dances over the various zesty citrus flavors on this slender, crisp and light yet expressive Riesling. The palate is governed entirely by lemon zest freshness and lingers b…

An almost apple-like and appetizing contrast between crunchy acidity and ripe fruitfulness makes this a compelling propostion. Primary fruit shines here and is very pure. This is like a crisp crunchy…

A rather neutral nose leads to a brisk and citric palate that is buffered by leesy texture and just a touch of smoke. This is so subtly done that there is quite a thrill between lemony, bright freshn…

This compelling wine comes largely from The Rocks District. Seeing just a kiss of new French oak (25%), it offers exquisitely fresh, rich aromas and flavors, with notes of plum, pipe tobacco, leather…

This red blend commences with aromas of red currant, black berries, spice and blue flower. The spicy palate delivers black pepper, nutmeg, sour cherry and ripe raspberry sensations that are restraine…

From the producer's dry-farmed estate vineyard, and supported by small amounts of Merlot and Cabernet Franc, this wine is elegant in sage and black cherry, silky on the palate in satisfying ways. Sav…

Relatively affordable for its appellation and variety, this wine offers classic notes of cassis, currant and clove, punctuated by eccentric bursts of gun powder and espresso. The devilish characteris…

Laurence Féraud, the stylish power behind Domaine de Pégaü in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, also produces her own négociant line of wines. This Gigondas is a top example, boasting intriguing scents of sweaty…

This is a keeper. Smoky, charred aromas, rich dark-fruit flavors like blackberry and boysenberry and meaty, peppery accents fill up this full-bodied and very firmly textured wine. It will get even mo…

This winery not only makes a bunch of single vineyard bottlings, but also tries to show off different styles. This one shows sweeter white peach, ripe cantaloupe, lush mango and a touch of vanilla on…

En rik og innbydende nese av bærfylte bakverk, tørkede jordbær, stuede kirsebær og salviekratt starter denne lagdelte vinen. Smaken viser smakfullt knust svart pepper sammen med jordbær, plomme og sv…

Fra et av de beste vinmarkområdene i Pouilly Fumé, er denne vinen rik, konsentrert og med et stort lagringspotensial. Strukturert og med gule frukter over de friskere, sitrusaktige smakene, den er fo…

Denne trivelige vinen har en saftig og lys kjerne, en blanding av krydret cola-kirsebær og skogbunn som ligger i faste, integrerte tanniner som fungerer sømløst på ganen. En fyldig vin med både kraft…
