Vinanmeldelser

Way too ripe, with raisined flavors, including raisin-skin bitterness and alcholic heat on the finish. The dominant variety is Sangiovese.

Made with undisclosed grape varieties, this rustic, softly sweet wine has apricot, honey and herb flavors.

This forceful Mencía blend pounds away with heavy oak, lemon and violet aromas. The palate is scorching, scouring and short on balance. Inky berry and bitter flavors come with overpowering oak-based…

Apple and lime aromas are basic and distant. This is light on the palate, while green melon, lime, apple and green-bean flavors finish grassy, leesy, tart and bitter.

A Lake County blend of 45% Syrah, 41% Cabernet Sauvignon and 14% Merlot that starts sour before turning into a mouthful of caramel molasses.

This blend of Savatiano and Roditis is very popular in Greece and perhaps a bit too exotic for mainstream palates, but it's easy drinking and priced well. Aromas of citrus and melon are followed by p…

A little strange and unusual on the nose, with a mix of grass, citrus and corn-like aromas. The palate is wayward and slightly citrusy, with a hint of grapefruit and also some vegetal flavors. Pretty…

This is the kind of wine you'll find sold at pizzerias, taco joints and Chinese restaurants everywhere. It's soft, simple and fruity, with cherry and cola flavors.

A dessert wine based on 100% Chambourcin, this sports warm flavors of brandied blackberries and pastry spices that also mark the palate, which comes with dusty tannins and a truncated finish.

Diminished scents of rubber, dried cherry and raspberry translate onto the nimble, glossy palate. The acidity becomes jumpy on the finish, leaving the wine feeling tense and asymmetrical.

The nose on this blend of Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon is a bit tight, with subtle notes of cocoa powder, raspberry and angel food cake. On the palate, fine tannins give struc…

There's a tannic flatness to this 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, with 12% Malbec and 12% Petit Verdot blended in. The crunchy blackberry and cassis fall somewhat flat on the palate.

With sharp acidity, a hot mouthfeel and rich flavors of cassis liqueur and chocolate-covered raisins, this Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend tastes more like Port than a dry table wine. Lots of new Fren…

For 10 bucks you get a decent, 10 buck wine. Nothing fancy, just fruity, off-dry and crisply drinkable.

This is a simple wine with candied raspberry, mint and toasted oak notes.

This rosé is quite ripe tasting, like a white-sugared tropical-fruit-juice blend, with alcohol. On the plus side is clean acidity.

This is harsh and scoury in the mouth, with thin blackberry and caramel flavors and some vegetal notes.

With an eye for all the commercial sweet-spots, this is a Rosato sparkling wine made primarily with the fragrant Moscato grape (with 15% Malvasia). The wine is sweet in a saccharine, artificial way.

Stalky, slightly green aromas blend with generic berry scents to form a marginal bouquet. This is tannic and rough on the palate, with buttery oak flavors along with candied berry fruit notes.

Denne eiendommen på 24 mål har produsert en intenst ristet vin. Med brent eik som helt overdøvet frukten, er det vanskelig å se at denne vinen blir attraktiv å drikke.

Tilsynelatende søt, med Lifesaver-kirsebær og bringebær-smak samt syrlig friskhet, denne enkle vinen passer fint til hverdagsmåltider eller fester.

Med en lite frastøtende oransje farge virker denne Rhône-stilen-blandingen søt, med smaker av appelsin, aprikos og vanilje.

Denne gamle vintreet Zinfandel med et dryss av Petite Sirah og Tannat i blandingen er gryterettaktig, myk og ganske enkel.

Aromaer av eplesaus og hvete gjør umiddelbart denne vinen litt lite tiltalende. I munnen føles den boblende og fruktig, med smaker av kandisert eple og appelsin, etterfulgt av en ettersmak som er en…
