Smooth, easy to enjoy and crisp in acidity, La Folia's Barbera tastes lighter than its 15.5% alcohol with a mocha kiss on the finish.

Sourced from one of the older vineyards in the region, Mettler has stayed true to Lodi's larger Zinfandel style with Epicenter, a wine that's black as night with notes of dark berry, plum, tar and br…

Extra fruity, packed with strawberry and crisp red currants flavors, this is all freshness, richness and clean acidity. It has some weight but this just emphasizes the fruitiness.

Rich and smooth, this is a good example of the sumptuous 2009 vintage. It is soft, ripe with blackberry and red plum fruits. It is already developing well. It's a medium-term wine, already juicy and…

It's no disrespect to say this is a great family restaurant-style Merlot. Tens of millions of Americans dig into beef at the neighborhood joint, and they want a good red to drink alongside it. At thi…

For Toro, this is earthy and slightly herbal as opposed to ripe and jammy. Aromas of mulch, leather and herbal berry lead into a firm, rocky palate with rooty flavors of burnt leaves, black fruits an…

Dry and firm, this wine just escapes being too toasty. Instead there is room for the fruit to begin to show, with black-currant flavors and fresh acidity. It's not a wine for aging, so drink from 201…

Already balanced, this is a rich wine, packed with jammy fruit and tannins. The concentration contrasts with the intense, fresh acidity. Good depth of flavor comes with a dense texture and a final sh…

This ripe, juicy and fruity wine has plenty of tannins, although they have easily integrated into the black fruits and fresh acidity. The wine is already surprisingly balanced, so although it will im…

All about freshness, this wine has crisp red-currant flavors and bright acidity. The tannins are just a background to the juicy, fruity front. Drink from 2018.

What is so good about this wine is its balance. The producer has accentuated the fruit of the vintage, leaving aside any big tannic structure. The result is a black-currant wine that is juicy, fresh…

From an estate that claims to date back to Roman times and has been revived by the current owners, this attractive wine features dusty tannins and ripe, juicy blackberry-flavored Merlot. A touch of p…

A fifty-fifty blend of Nero d'Avola and Merlot, this polished wine opens with scents of ripe plum, blackcurrant and exotic spice. The round, creamy palate offers juicy blackberry, wild cherry, white…

Made with 100% Moscato grapes, this opens with scents of dried fruit, pressed white flower and a whiff of Mediterranean scrub. On the full-bodied palate, white almond accents candied orange peel, apr…

Huge in structure and monolithic in flavor, this young, rough-cut wine will need until at least 2020 to show its best stuff. This variety is known for aging well, so it's not much of a gamble. The co…

Gossamer-light in texture, this delicate Gewürztraminer seems to whisper tones of apricot, blossom and peach on the nose and palate. A shade off dry, it's an elegant, mineral-toned wine. Drink now to…

This is a concentrated wine, full of blackberry fruits with acidity and spice. The wood-aging character is balancing out well, giving structure without dominating the fruit. Drink from 2020. Grapes a…

Fleshy, primary notes of juicy, luscious plum have little shimmers of white pepper here and there. The palate is soft but not without structure, and the nature of this spells playfulness and fruity f…

This dark garnet-colored blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 45% Merlot and 5% Petit Verdot has aromas of blackberry, raspberry and rose petal. Flavors of black cherry and anise with touches of green pe…

Under the Feather label, this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon styled by Napa's Randy Dunn s the only one pure varietal red wine in the Long Shadows collection. Eucalyptus aromas rise instantly as it's poured…

Here's a vibrant red that has red berry, blue flower and spice aromas, with a whiff of salinity. The juicy palate offers fleshy red cherry and ripe raspberry accented by white pepper. With fresh acid…

This full-bodied wine just lacks that bit of freshness that would've taken it to the next level. Stewed plums, black olives and espresso notes are rich and complex, ending on a long silky note. Drink…

A structured, cool wine that is poised and elegant, it has a lightly creamy texture cut by apple and pear flavors. Definitely mineral, it is textured with fruit skins and flavored with the oak aging.…

Leesy, bready aromas are ripe and fruity. This is soft in feel and a touch heavy, which may be a reflection of the warm 2009 vintage. Nectarine and other ripe flavors finish full and sweet. This almo…
