Vinanmeldelser

Rene, friske bæraromaer leder inn i en slank, læraktig smak med syrlig kirsebærfrukt og stramme, astringente tanniner. Det er ikke en dårlig vin; men den er definitivt tynn som en strå og tørrende. U…

Dens sitrus- og melonaromaer får dessverre også en ekstra og uønsket lukt av rengjøringsmiddel. Munnen er syrlig og slank, med mye sitron. Den avslutter på den sure siden. Riktig avkjølt og med passe…

Ganespaletten viser moderat sitrusaktig syre som legger grunnlaget for en smaksprofil av svovel, grapefrukt og mandarin. Pyraziner og bitterhet dominerer i avslutningen.

Aromaer av tomatblad, bakebønner og stuet plomme gir en smal, stram gane. Smaker av urteaktig bringebær og rød plomme har en grønn, mintaktig komponent som starter tidlig og varer til en tørr, rå avs…

Aggressiv i starten, denne Garnacha lukter kornete og grov. Tydelig fatlager gir en kremete munnfølelse, mens urtete og grønne bærsmaker avsluttes bittert.

Gummiaktige, medisinske aromaer antyder jod og latex. Denne blandingen av Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon og Syrah er tung og slapp, med bakte, urteaktige smaker som avsluttes saftige og viser noter av to…

A soft, open wine with only light tannins. The fruit is just as light, with strawberry and some spice. For drinking now.

Baked and raisiny smelling, with kirsch. In a word, it's stewy. Ditto for the mouthfeel, which is chunky and heavy. Features thick black plum, herb and carob flavors and feels beefy on the finish.

Funky aromas of nutty, briny citrus fruits and apple come with a whiff of skunk. This is flat in feel, with sugary, creamy flavors of green melon. A foamy, flowery finish tastes candied and feels bor…

Hard, rubbery cherry and berry aromas lead to a raw, underdeveloped palate. This wine made from the local Valencia-region grape variety Forcallà is outright tart and tomatoey, with a touch of red-plu…

It is the Fernão Pires that gives this wine its class and freshness. The Sauvignon Blanc in the blend, with its herbaceous character, seems to clash. The wine is crisp with lemon flavors and brings a…

Lychee, lemon-lime and bath soap aromas set up a foamy, rough, coarse palate. Flavors of soapy tropical fruits seem almost artificial, and so does the finish, which is sugary sweet.

On the nose, this is fully oaked, charred, spicy and familiar. In the mouth, however, it takes a dive; brutal, scouring acidity and killer tannins create a rugged, lemony mouthfeel. Flavors of toasty…

Leafy aromas of tomato and green herbs pile on the pyrazines. This distinctly herbal Cabernet is full and chunky in feel, with flavors that follow the nose: bell pepper and spicy tomato lead the way.…

Cherry, plum and spice aromas are lively, but the palate is highly citric and acidic. Short, drying sour cherry and plum flavors turn hot, peppery and ultimately bitter on the finish.

A bright cranberry color, this is fruity and dry, simple and ready to drink immediately. It brings some slightly bitter tannins into the finish.

Mint and jammy plum and raspberry aromas are a touch spicy. This is astringent in feel, with dry, oaky red-berry and tomato flavors. An angular, tart finish fades quickly.

Aromas of apple cider are oxidized and grassy. This offers mealy peach flavors that, like the nose, seem oxidized. A bland but not bad finish sends this Viura-Verdejo blend on its way.

Dry, saline-like overtones on jumpy plum and berry aromas and a hard, tannic palate make for a tough beginning. Equally tough berry fruit flavors have skins and bitterness issues, while the finish is…

Stewy, muddled, herbal aromas come prior to a chunky, chewy palate. Flavors of compost, nutty berry fruits and turned earth lack freshness, while a stewed finish tastes mulchy and feels tannic.

Burnt, edgy and stemmy/stalky from start to finish. The nose gives off a charred nut and asphalt character, while the palate is edgy, hard and bitter, with briary flavors of roasted fruit and stems.…

Uncommon exotic blueberry aromas are lean and grassy. In the mouth, this is high in acidity and scouring. Flavors match the nose, meaning this tastes sour and exotic, while the finish is sharp and sc…

Sappy volatile berry and plum aromas lead to sharp citric palate. This tastes of sour plum and herbs, while oaky spice and clove notes rise up on the finish.

Aromas of freshly picked roses, vanilla and peach entice you into this Moldovan sparkling wine made from Muscat. There are flavors of dried apricot and honeydew melon with a slightly sweet finish.
