This is the kind of Brunello you want on a cold winter night by the fireplace. The wine delivers dark concentration with oak spice and tobacco followed by a long succession of bright berry nuances. T…
A soft, rich wine with delicious flavors of pear and red apples, lifted by pineapple acidity. It is ripe, but still young, with touches of yeast and almond. It will age well over the medium-term.
Prestigio is dense and plush on the bouquet, with concentrated blackberry, cassis and cumin aromas that come across entirely positive. The palate is ultra ripe and packed with earthy, baked flavors o…

A Bordeaux-style blend of 56% Merlot, 24% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14% Cabernet Franc, 4% Malbec and 2% Petit Verdot, the Z is typically more immediately approachable than the Fusion V. The structure is s…
Brunello Il Marroneto offers a touch of ripeness in the form of cherry fruit, vanilla cream, cinnamon and caramel. Sharp acidity in the backdrop definitely puts all that soft roundness into perspecti…
This is an upscale Cabernet, rich in black currants, mocha and oak, and framed in sturdy tannins. Shows lots of class despite the statewide California appellation.
Give this dry, elegant Pinot a couple of years to let all the parts knit together. Right now, the oak stands out, and the acidity seems out of balance with the rich raspberry and persimmon fruit. It'…
A stand-out wine among Keuka Lake Vineyard's many excellent Rieslings, the Falling Man is brisk with pineapple and grapefruit flavors accented by lime zest and a distinct crushed-stone minerality. Wh…
La Mannella offers an opulent, modern wine with ripe aromas of black cherry, leather, rum cake and black licorice. The wine is tight and astringent in the mouth with sharp endnotes of sour cherry and…

A real delight for its delicious drinkability, and a revelation for Monterey Merlot. Shows the acidity and varietal purity of the Arroyo Seco region, with intense plum and blackberry flavors balanced…
From one of Champagne's less ageworthy vintages, this is already deliciously drinkable. It has fine acidity that cuts through the mineral texture, shaping the rounded fruitiness. It's dry and crisp a…
Hard, stringy tannins give a tough astringency to this 100% Cabernet. Partly they're from grape skins and partly from 100% new oak barrels. There's a huge core of black currants, however, and the fin…
This is sourced from the winery's steepest and most wind-exposed blocks in their estate vineyard. The wine is dry and fairly tannic, with a rich concentration of raspberries, currants and mushrooms.…
Poggio Antico is one of the best estates in Montalcino but the 2008 vintage doesn't reach the impressive heights of 2006 or 2007 that showed much fuller and more generous results. This edition offers…
Loads of black fruit intensity is backed by soft notes of chocolate, leather and spice. The wine boasts a very plump and round style that makes it a pleasure to savor.
This is a light, bright, nearly clear bringing together of 51% Pinot Noir and 49% Chardonnay, just barely pink in color. It accentuates the beauty of both varieties, from Pinot's mix of cherry and wa…
