A wine that is soft and fruity. The tannins are light, spiked with acidity and some bitter chocolate. The final character is fruity, rich and soft.

A fruity Port, with plum and spice character, very jammy and sweet. Touches of tannin and acidity give balance to make the wine ripe, soft and full in the mouth.

This is a fruity wine with a off-dry character that is balanced by lime and lemon fruitiness. The acidity and the tangy herbal character give the wine an attractive bite. Drink now.

Herbal plum and olive aromas come with dry spicy oak notes. All in all, this holds up well on the palate, which offers herbal spicy plum flavors. A minty finish with a black-olive character doesn't h…

In the spirit that Tejo can grow anything on its fertile soil, this wine is a rounded tropical-fruit-flavored Sauvignon Blanc. It has acidity enough as well as a warm smooth character. It is certainl…

Taut and with its youthful acidity still up front, this wine has good potential. Its crisp acidity and lively, bright character all promise well. Drink from late 2017.

The wine is attractive with its ripe apple flavors and shot of lemon. It is off dry, with a fruity character that makes it a great apéritif wine. Drink now.

Pierre Léon is a selection of different clones from the winery estate. Maybe it's the vintage, but the wine seems dilute. The flavors of tart wild berry, earth and herb have a thin, edgy character; a…

This is a tasty Pinot Noir, but it's not particularly characteristic of Doctor's Vineyard or Santa Lucia Highlands. It's soft, ripe and sweet, and while the raspberry, cherry and red currant flavors…

Possibly too rich, this is a full, sumptuous wine. It has great weight, density, a smooth, wood-aged character that shows through the sweet plums. For what it is, a very rich wine that shows some pep…

Firmly tannic, the wine shows the structure of the vintage well. It also brings out red berry fruits, with a herbal character that cuts the richness. The wine needs time, so drink from 2015.

Lighter than Malibu Oak's Cabernet Sauvignon, this Cab Franc shows the variety's characteristic herby notes and is otherwise easy and light, with enough depth to pair well with a range of meats.

Made from Dão's signature Encruzado grape, this has ripe almonds, yellow fruit and a seductive perfumed character. It's a rounded wine, the acidity well integrated into the ripe character. Drink now,…

This luminous sparkler delivers a polished nose of white flower, crushed peppercorn, stone fruit and citrus. The mouthfeel is characterized by prickly effervescence and a touch of piquant spice on th…

This is an over-soft wine, without real bite or crispness. It is pleasantly creamy, with almond flavors and a full mousse, but the soft character continues right through to the finish.

Grassy, herbal notes add an interesting edge and characterize this luminous sparkling wine. It offers nice, tonic bubbling and focused aromas of lemon, lime and white flower. It tastes lush and crisp…

Despite a mild green character, this is mostly a solid, saturated wine. The nose has lettuce, pepper and berry scents, and the palate is racy and snappy, with red fruit and herbal accents. It's compe…

Lively and fresh with a floral and lemon citrus character in the nose and on the palate, this full-bodied Gewürtz offers lovely aromas and full-bodied flavors. Dry in style with a clean character. Pa…

The fact that there is 60% Cabernet Franc in this blend gives the wine a real perfumed attractiveness. It is fruity and light, with a crisp lively character. Red berries and plenty of acidity leave a…

The wine is full of bright fruit and acidity. It does still have a dry tannic core that gives it a firm character. The juicy acidity and crisp texture show it is still young. Drink from late 2017.

There's hearty earthiness and darkness to this bottling, with black plum, beets, cola, rhubarb, turned earth and a light asphalt character to the nose. The palate is framed by aggressive acidity, sho…

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…

Currant, cola, spice and cherry lead this layered Cab from Delfosse. It's an approachable style but with added character: cinnamon spice, tobacco and black cherry on the palate is integrated and smoo…

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…
