From a property that is just below the Montée de Tonnerre Premier Cru vineyard, the 30-year-old vines give a round, easygoing wine. The tight texture is really lost in the fresh pear and apple flavor…

Inviting floral notes open the aromatics of this wine. These evolve into a thick palate of melon and citrus, the finish light and high in acidity. Straightforward and balanced, it's a quaffer.

This wine comes from the original, own-rooted, 1965 plantings. It would be interesting to trace the ancestry of these vines, as such things were far less understood 50 years ago. Soft, round and frui…

Here is a friendly, fruity, medium-bodied wine with light apple and pear aromas. Off-dry flavors are more melony and floral, and the wine has a relatively soft texture. Made from old vines and fermen…

This light crisp wine with its yeasty citrus aromas is juicy, fruity and with fine acidity. Its citrus fruits and touch of pepper have been filled out with the lees aging. The wine is ripe and ready…

Almost clear in color, this wine shows tropical aromas of melon, honeysyuckle and lychee. The light-bodied, high-acid palate is carried by white peach and citrus flavors that finish short but clean.

This is a straightforward wine showing ripe tropical fruits and a melon rind character, while mint and lemon peel ride out in the background. The fruit disappears quickly on the finish but a lovely h…

The fruit is light and a touch sour, with suggestions of watermelon and berry. It fades into a short finish with a citrusy frame.

Yeasty, slightly stalky aromas of melon, citrus and peach are simple yet fresh. This feels solid, pulpy and fleshy, but not flabby; flavors of melon, papaya and white grapefruit finish pithy and slig…

The wine is soft, round and full in the mouth, with balance between fresh citrus and ripe melon and pear fruits. The acidity gives a great lift, adding to the steely texture and final burst of fruit.

A faint hint of pink shines on this sparkler named after the winery owners' dog. Aromas of fresh melon and slight peach lead to a faint cherry note upon sipping and creamy mouthfeel, followed by plum…

This edition of Soave Classico Runcaris offers simple aromas of pear, Golden Delicious apple, stone fruit and melon. There's a drying point of minerality at the back and crisp acidity to boot.

Castelcerino is a broad, thick Soave Classico with mature aromas of melon, apricot and exotic fruit. This is a simple but genuine wine that can be employed in less formal occasions.

Aromas of herbal red-berry fruits, tomato, leather and grass lead to a snappy, tight, drawn palate. Red-currant and plum-skin flavors are racy, while this Rufete, a variety rarely seen, is grabby and…

A yeasty, bready nose and a fairly flat palate are not all that vibrant. This cava tastes yeasty like the aromas suggest, but also offers a bitter melon flavor component on the way to a soft, wayward…

This is a solid Verdejo, with citrusy acidity and pulp to the palate. It shows modest melon and apple aromas and citrus and green herb flavors that finish with no major changes.

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…

From a warm year, this smells toasty and oaky more than anything. In the mouth, core acidity is driving and creates a sharp, racy feel, while woody flavors of tropical fruits and melon finish with oa…

Full-bodied, tannic, juicy-fruity and dry, this red blend has flavors of blackberries, plums, dark chocolate and anise, with spicy, earthy notes of tobacco. Made from Primitivo, Zinfandel and Terolde…
