White peach and honey-butter aromas show on the nose of this richly styled bottling from one of the region's bigger producers. Salt and nectarine appear strongly on the palate, which is bound togethe…

This is a one-of-a-kind wine in the state, with 50% of the wine fermented on skins for nine months and the rest aged in concrete and older oak. Pure red- and blue-fruit aromas are followed by bold fr…

Made entirely with Timorasso, this opens with aromas of acacia flower, lemon peel and a whiff of hazelnut. The vibrant palate offers citrus zest, McIntosh apple and a touch of raw almond alongside br…

This blends 84% Merlot, 11% Malbec and 5% Petit Verdot, the three varieties combining to full-bodied effect. Earthy in mushroom and cedar, its texture is leathery, with the palate dotted in tobacco a…

The blend of 60% Grenache and 40% Syrah mixes notes of black cherries with hints of red raspberries to create a delicious tension. Dried spices and mocha add nuance, while the tannins are firm at fir…

A nose with jammy red-fruit and scented-soap notes is milder than the raw, rugged palate this shows, but that's what 2013 was about in Ribera del Duero: tough wines. Plum, blackberry and savory oak f…

Just a touch of dried herb adds a surprising element to the intense honey, white flower and sweet tangerine flavors on this beautiful late-harvest Riesling. Striking lemon-lime acidity and a shower o…

Swathes of green herbs add a blast of freshness to ripe, rich stone-fruit and quince notes on this bone-dry, single-vineyard Riesling. It's remarkably complex, with layers of crushed-stone minerality…

This is a robust, full-bodied Zinfandel. It's so ripe that the blackberries have a raisiny, Porty note. High in alcohol and spicy, this is a wine that defines a particular style of warm-climate Sonom…

What sets this wine apart are the cooling aromas of chopped mint and white licorice. It delivers tangy layers of black olive, resin, tar, tobacco leaf and sweet cinnamon stick.

Crisp and vibrant, this is also rich and flashy. It has the essence of ripe, wild raspberries that are spiced and smoked up in oak, leaving you dazzled by its allure.

The oak is very present, so give this a few more years of cellar aging for it to integrate. Chocolate, Christmas spices, leather, toasted almonds and coffee grounds make a grand first impression. As…

Veins of sweet cinnamon and chocolate run through the body of this thick, concentrated wine. Exceedingly soft and supple, it has penetrating endnotes of cherry preserves, blackberry pie and Middle Ea…

Bright, fresh and fruity, this is loaded with citrus—especially grapefruit—goodness. There are layers of pears and peaches, making this a big, fruity, mouth-filling wine.

This is a blend of Corvina, Oseleta and Cabernet Franc that shows some of the intensity of an Amarone, but with more defined tannic structure on the finish. The bouquet offers blackberry and dark spi…

Nothing is out of place in this wine: It's intense, but it's not too strong, and the bouquet shows a balance of sweet fruit and savory spice aromas.

Firm red currant and raspberry fruits dominate this smooth wine. The tannins, which lie underneath, give this round Pinot Noir essential firmness. This needs to age for 2–3 years.

Notes of sweet quince preserves, lilac and lavender gently perfume this aromatic late-harvest Riesling. Quite voluptuous in body, with rich fruit flavor and a lush, creamy texture, it finishes long,…

Here's a delicious dessert wine made with dried Moscato grapes. It has an intense fragrance of orange blossoms, citrus and herbs. The dense palate delivers honey, lemon drop, sage and mint. Pair this…

This is the finest of the winery's three new rosés, and kudos to them for specializing in blush. The vineyard is in the Green Valley, and the wine shows long hangtime raspberry and cherry fruit, brig…

This is a ripe, full and fruity wine that is typical Savigny with its warm red fruits and gentle tannins. It's a rounded, already attractive wine that's full of strawberry and bilberry flavors. It ca…

This is the most balanced of the winery's many 2011 Zins. It's also half the price of the vineyard designates. With raspberry, cherry and cola flavors set in a flurry of spices, it doesn't have the m…

Made with Sangiovese, Locorosso has an intense fragrance of wild cherry and underbrush accented by tobacco and spice. The palate is dense and delicious, delivering black cherry layered with carob, co…
