Almost jet black, this is a tough chewy wine with just enough blackberry fruit to punch through the tannins. Aging does not seem to have worked in its favor, so best to drink soon, aerate aggressivel…
Bright and fruity, this has a good balance of lemon and ripe pear flavors. It is a light wine, crisp but with a richer seam that gives it concentration. A great apéritif wine, it's ready to drink.
In some vintages (such as 2004) the extended bottle age given to the Citation Pinot works in its favor. In this latest release, it has subtracted from, rather than added to, rather ordinary fruit fla…
Bramble, wild cherry and touches of dill and bay leaf show on the nose of this bottling. The palate, which is thick with tannins though not too rich, shows damp and dewy flavors of marjoram and orega…
A reductive, bitter rubber component stubbornly dominates this wine. There's cranberry and rhubarb fruit, ample acids, and otherwise all is in balance. But that burnt rubber note carries right throug…
The wine has simple red-berry flavors and a light layer of tannins. The acidity is probably too intense—a product of the vintage. But it is an attractive wine to drink now, finishing with its crisp a…
An earthy vein in the aromas and flavors keeps this wine from being a classic. Nonetheless it has ripe fruit flavors and a relatively smooth texture in spite of the variety's typical firm tannins.
Light-bodied and lacking in tannin, this is a more traditional Barbera, with attractive mixed berry fruit on the nose, followed by forest floor and graham cracker flavors in the mouth. Drink now.
For everyday consumption, this is good Cabernet with rousing fruit, body and pulse. The nose has smoke, rubber, pepper and cured meat to go with berry and cassis aromas, and the palate is very fruity…
Inviting raspberry and cherry aromas have a tiny level of volatility, while the palate is chunky, bold and edgy, with big berry flavors leading the way. Full on the finish, with some oak and vanilla…
Black cherry, mocha and pepper lead on this easy-drinking red from Chaddsford. On the palate, soft cherry fruit, cedar spice and chocolate give the wine a luscious edge. Pair with Mexican mole, spice…
Ungainly, with stiff, puckery tannins giving a hard astringency, and unintegrated oak sticking out. Somewhere inbetween are modest cherry, anise and herb flavors. Pretty good, but not likely to go an…
Subtitled Vin de Lune, moon wine, because the grapes were harvested at night. That has allowed the wine to preserve its freshness with lively acidity and fresh red currant flavors.
Crafted from an intriguing blend of Nebbiolo, Barbera and Petit Verdot, this Langhe blend delivers dense, forward fruit in a compact structure with firm tannins and luscious blackberry fruit. Moderat…
Aromas like new leather and wet earth, then flavors like pomegranate give this medium-bodied wine a funky, off-beat character. It feels firm in texture from fine-grained tannins, and should work well…
The bright, lively nose of citrus spray, white peach, red apple and gooseberry carries through to the light-bodied palate. Tart green-apple tones keep the flavors spritely in this easy, enjoyable whi…
From a cool site high above the coastal town of Jenner, this 100% varietal wine is made in small amounts and given almost two years in French oak, only a quarter of it new. Intense, it exudes baked a…
There are very distinctive botanical aromas on this wine, from salted orange peels to juniper bush, almost like a gin. The palate is also incredibly herbal, with dried dill, marjoram and basil, which…
This is a soft and fruity wine, ripe with red-berry fruits and perfumed acidity. A light touch of caramel and tannin give the right structure, and the aftertaste is bright and fruity.
Candied apricot dominates on the nose and palate of this vineyard-designated wine that is fleshy and reflective of its five months in new French oak. Creamy and round, it finishes ripe and rich.
This elegant and flavorful wine has a vivid salmon color. Aromas combine cherries and a slight earthiness, paired with a luxurious texture from the tiny bubbles and slight sweetness. Attractive layer…
Smakt to ganger, med forskjellige resultater; 86-poengsvurderingen reflekterer gjennomsnittet av begge flaskene. Den ene flasken virket for tung, med en merkelig blanding av jalapeñopepper og honning…
Livlige aromaer av grapefrukt, hvite blomster og mineral leder inn i en lett, fruktig, men ganske enkel gane som tilbyr lime, grønne urter og stein. Alt i alt er den enkel og ren, men litt utvannet.…
Du må bare elske navnet (det har vært laget Henry II, III og IV, med forskjellige blandinger av druer). Denne er 43 % Cabernet Sauvignon, 24 % Merlot, 19 % Cabernet Franc, 9 % Syrah og 5 % Malbec. Ne…
