Based in the village of Beaujeu, this producer has made a dense wine that needs time for the fruits to develop. It is juicy with acidity that is beginning to show through the tannins. Give this cru w…

Full, ripe wine, with flavors of peach, melon and with an intriguing nutty edge. Its texture is oily, with spice. There is a fresh, green aftertaste. Screwcap.

Front-loaded with cherries, watermelons and pomegranates, with hints of violets, vanilla and spices, this is one of the richer, more full-bodied blush wines out there. Great picnic or beach wine.

This very fairly priced Merlot from the Cosumnes River sub-section of Lodi has a juicy berry roundness that makes it inviting to drink, and softly textured all around. On the long finish is a remarka…

A firmly tannic wine, its dry core surrounded by dark plum skin and damson flavors. It has weight, a potential for richness that will develop over the next 2–3 years. Solid and chunky aftertaste.

Lots of lusciousness in this blush Zin. It may be technically dry, like the label says, but there's a lush fruitiness to the strawberry, watermelon, vanilla and spice flavors. What a great summer bru…

Despite being less expensive, this is more expressive and fruitier than the Crozes-Hermitage. Pineapple, melon and hints of stone fruit and mango are reasonably full and rich for a wine that's labele…

Toasted nut, yellow melon, pear and struck match scents show on the nose of this bottling from a steep, rocky vineyard in the mountains between Malibu and the Conejo Valley. It's tightly wound on the…

Very rich, extracted and soft in tannins and acids, a melt-in-your-mouth Zin with almost sweet flavors of milk chocolate, crushed ripe cherries, licorice, caramelized wood and oodles of black pepper.…

Mellow aromas of lees and white flowers shade simple citrus and melon scents. This is juicy and fresh in the mouth, with citrusy acids pushing tangerine and white grapefruit flavors. A citric finish…

This is citrusy and also a bit tropical on the bouquet, and together the aromatic mix is appealing. A fresh mouthfeel is a bonus, and standard Torrontés flavors of melon, lychee and banana finish wit…

Tropical smelling, with green banana, minerality and firmness to the bouquet. The palate is clean and cleansing, which are two very different things, while the wine tastes of tangy citrus and green m…

This is a big, rich, showy Chardonnay. Barrel fermented and aged in 80% new French oak, it shows buttered toast and charry vanilla bean aromas and flavors. The fruit below is good, if a little heavy…

This is a good, full-bodied, dry Cabernet that delivers with plenty of varietal personality. Shows very ripe, concentrated blackberry, cherry and currant flavors, with plenty of sweet oak, and is tan…

The 2005 vintage of this vineyard designate Nebbiolo scored an outstanding 94 points, but this edition of Barolo Vigna Rué doesn't quite live up to its predecessor. There are some sharper notes of re…

The 80% new oak on this wine really sticks out, giving toasty, caramelized and vanilla bean notes. That makes the underlying cherry, blackberry and raspberry fruit, which is superripe, taste jammy, a…

This Syrah-dominant blend, with 25% Carignan and 5% Grenache, leads with oak-driven aromas of charred cedar, sweet smoke and vanilla bean that envelop the ripe blackberry and cherry fruit tones. The…

The nose isn't very expressive but eventually reveals sawdust, toasted oak and roasted coffee bean. The palate delivers raw red cherry, anise and espresso alongside bracing tannins. Give this time to…

This pale salmon rosé is fresh and clean. It opens with bright aromas of strawberry hull, watermelon rind and citrus peel that carry through to the linear yet vibrant palate. The palate boasts excell…

A blend of Pommard and Wadenswill clones, this was aged in large, neutral puncheons. It's smooth, light and well balanced, showing fruit flavors of watermelon and strawberry. The vintage was challeng…

A very good Mendocino County Cabernet, Kimmel is tightly tannic with an elegant backbeat. The palate is very savory in its cranberry, herb and dark berry fruit flavors. Full bodied with layers of con…

A light earthy aroma and enjoyable savory flavors suggesting dried herbs, bouillon and canteloupe characterize this deceptively full-bodied, dry wine. It has a nervy, crisp texture, great acidity and…

Aromas of animal hide and latex are savory more than fruity. This feels overdone and soupy on the palate, with sticky tannins. Candied, baked flavors of plum, blackberry and black currant are spicy i…

Nesen på denne hvitvinen appellerer fra starten av. Elegante bølger av sitron, appelsinblomst og ferskenaromaer etterfølges av en balansert, men luksuriøs blanding av pære, fersken og hvite blomster…
