Vinanmeldelser

Denne vinen starter med en lett reduktiv note, som i begynnelsen distraherer fra aromaene av pære, bunnfall og krydder. Smaken er medium fyldig, med en kremet og generøs følelse.

Røyk og karamell gir dybde til sprø, slanke eple- og pæresmaker i denne friske off-dry Rieslingen. Den er livlig og forfriskende fra start til slutt, og avsluttes med en fast, bitter limeaktig tone.

Etter mer enn 6 år siden årgangen virker denne vinen ganske moden. Tanninene er myke, mens frukten begynner å få en litt tørket karakter. Andre noter inkluderer melasse, karamell, tørre blader og tom…

Fruit stars in this dry, young Petite Sirah. It explodes with jammy flavors of blackberries, cassis, cherries, licorice and plums, with a generous dusting of cinnamon and cocoa. It's distinguished, w…

This wine is pale peach in color. It starts with aromas of strawberry, herb and spice that lead to juicy, just-off-dry, well-balanced fruit flavors that provide a whole lot of appeal.

Chunky aromas of peach and melon are briny and pickled. With high acidity maintaining shape, there's pinch to the palate. Typical Elqui Valley flavors of mustard and briny apple finish full, viscous…

Blended with 20% Sauvignon Blanc, this wine starts out somewhat aromatically brooding, with notes of melon and toast. It brings plenty of texture and richness, with a creamy feel and a warm finish.

This is a smooth, well-mannered and distinctly varietal wine, richly rewarding in cola spice and earthy black tea, with a juicy finish.

Spice, lees and custard aromas are followed by creamy-feeling fruit flavors that taper slightly toward the finish.

Based in the village of Beaujeu, this producer has made a dense wine that needs time for the fruits to develop. It is juicy with acidity that is beginning to show through the tannins. Give this cru w…

Give this Syrah another year or two in the cellar. Even though it's a 2009, the blackberry and cherry fruit remains startlingly fresh. Yet the acid-tannin structure is balanced. Should start picking…
