Distant aromas of melon, lemon and apricot are subtle and fail to stir the pot. This feels weighty, with pithy flavors of peach, papaya and melon. On the finish, flavors of white pepper and bitternes…
Nutty, oaky aromas along with a gold-brown maderized color indicate a wine past its prime. In the mouth, there's not much fruit left but there is a whole lot of weight and resiny oak. Lead flavors of…
Spice and dusty fruit aromas are equalized by saucy, funky, leafy notes. This is full in the mouth, with flavors of brown sugar, baking spices and baked cherry. This finishes with mild spice and oak…
Aromas of blueberry and boysenberry are active and come with a whiff of animal fur. This feels chunky but not to the point of collapsing on itself. Flavors of plum, blackberry and juniper finish with…
Spiced raspberry with overtones of bramble patch and barnyard aromas. The light-bodied palate is a bit darker in nature, with dark cherry and vanilla rooibos flavors.
Gritty berry and plum aromas are blocky. This feels choppy, almost rocky, while baked berry flavors ramble towards a spicy, sappy finish with stewed fruit notes and some residual heat.
This easy-drinking Pinot leads with bright aromas of red currant, raspberry and strawberry hull, all leaning slightly sour. The palate is light and tangy, with tart red-berry flavors that finish clea…
Saucy aromas of stewed plum and tomato ragu lack clarity. This is midlevel Cabernet, with a light bounce to its step. Generic cherry, cassis and licorice flavors finish with acidic kick but no sense…
Ruddy peach and melon aromas take on a slight dusting of mineral on the nose. The palate is rich, heavy and round in feel, with buttery lemon and melon flavors. Lactic notes carry to the slightly hot…
Nice enough on the nose, with spunky berry aromas mixed with modest spice and vanilla. The palate is angular yet fresh, with tight acidity producing bright but choppy cherry and plum flavors. Cleansi…
A low-intensity wine with dull apricot aromas and mild oxidization. Riesling is the base grape, but the wine is mildy Sherried and honeyed, with burnt orange as the lead flavor. Heavy orange and apri…
Moderate red cherry aromas are about as expressive as it gets, while the palate has a sharp scour to it even if the wine avoids outright tartness. Snappy and crisp at all check points, with a spot of…
Morande is the biggest producer of Pinot Noir in Casablanca Valley, and this entry-level bottling is a good value to boot. Earthy, forest-fire aromas coat black cherry notes in the bouquet; the palat…
This Bordeaux white is heavily oaked, and it's therefore overloaded with coconut aromas, creamy custard and pear flavors, and a taste of banana on the finish. At every point along the way the wood to…
Made in the full-blown, barrel-fermented and -aged style, this wine shows off the cooper's art in its bold toasty-caramelly-vanilla aromas and flavors. Some peach fruit manages to sneak through the w…
A buttery, by-the-book Chardonnay that's heavier on oak than on fruit, this Maipo Valley offering has apple, toast and cream flavors and oak, spice and ripe pear aromas. More of the same flavors pop…
Bulky, chunky lemony aromas come with a touch of green hay, or is it alfalfa? The mouth is entirely grapefruit and orange, making it citrus all the way. A stony, gravelly quality to the finish could…
Odd aromas of peanuts and asparagus are a bit offputting. And in the mouth, the vegetal character is overriding. This wine has its qualities, but nonetheless it's just loaded with too much green vegg…
Pale in color, with delicate Pinot-like aromas of strawberry, beetroot, coffee and hard spices. Drinks lightly fruity, spicy and dry. It's a simple, one-dimensional wine, but a very pretty one, and n…
Raspberry aromas, cherry and strawberry flavors, and a strong hint of milk chocolate throughout best define this Gallo-owned wine. Some raisins and a touch of buttery oak appear late, rendering it a…
Heavy aromas of burnt leaves, rubber and compost overshadow any berry fruit notes, while the palate is creamy in feel, with basic flavors of spiced, earthy cherry and berry. Fairly oaky on the finish…
Hard and inky on first blush, with aromas of shoe polish and wild, aggressive fruit. A far more narrow and acidic wine than we expected to find, with racy, short, blue fruit flavors. Bright and chopp…
Racy and tight-bodied red wine, with a strained, herbal set of aromas and a high-acid, razor's-edge palate of lively red fruit flavors and an offset of drying oak. Too generic and tough on the cheeks…
