A blend of Syrah and Grenache from organic vineyards gives a herbal, very southern taste to this ripe wine. It is still young and showing both acidity and a firm structure. As it develops further, it…
Still young with attractive fresh fruits, this wine needs to age. With its bright acidity and white fruits, it's just beginning to hint at the mineral structure behind. Drink from 2018.
Light orange-pink in color, this wine is boosted by 2% Syrah, 1% Mourvèdre and 1% Grenache Blanc. It shows squeezed lime and pressed watermelon on the nose, proving quite Provencal in style. The cott…
MBV's Te Tera bottling is “essentially a declassification,” says Paul Mason, the winemaker. It's certainly much more supple than the classic bottling, with attractive layers of black cherry, cola and…
Aromas of beeswax, acacia, chamomile and stone fruit mingle in the glass. The rich palate delivers juicy yellow peach, mature apricot and a candied ginger note alongside fresh acidity and a hint of m…
Tender but rich notes of damask rose dominate the nose. They are joined on the palate by a textured, almost phenolic mouthfeel in which fresh citrus vibrates and swings along with just off-dry notes…
This appealing wine offers aromas of apricot, pineapple and vanilla. The flavors are lighter in style with vanilla, caramel and straw notes that linger, showing a pleasing mixture of fruit and barrel.
Barrel fermented and aged in 100% new French oak, this wine brings aromas of toasty barrel spices, peach and lemon curd. It's full bodied and creamy in feel, with the alcohol poking through and provi…
Tart, penetrating notes of lime, green apple and greengage plum accentuate the cool, crisp quality of this dry Riesling. It's zingy and lean in constitution, but concentrated and complex in flavors,…
While intensely mineral and strikingly brisk with acidity, this delicate dry Riesing also boasts pretty notes of blossom, white peach and pear. It's a keenly four-square wine that's zingy, fresh and…
Coming from a big, popular vineyard now owned by the Chumash tribe, this exciting wine shows very salty apples, dried yellow rose and green grapefruit rind on the nose. The flavors warm up toward coo…
This wine certainly packs in the flavor. It has lots of jammy, grapy aromas, and flavors that drip boysenberry and blackberry, followed by baking-spice accents. It has a full body, an almost thick te…
Assorted blue fruit, coffee, green tea and barrel-spice aromas lead to full-bodied fruit flavors that carry a touch of warmth.
The oak (two-thirds new French and American) leads, with aromas of cocoa, cinnamon and spice followed by plum. The palate shows an elegant styling but with good intensity to the flavors.
Situated close to the city of Bordeaux, this estate has produced a Cabernet-dominated wine that has some firm tannins and a dry core. The black-currant fruit shows well, with fresh acidity giving a j…
The enthusiastic use of wood for this wine gives a dark, spicy character that masks any fruit. Less new wood would have helped highlight the natural fruitiness of the wine. Leave it until 2020 and th…
This wine is full of bright fruit and attractive acidity. It's been made to take advantage of the fruitiness of the year and is likely to develop quickly. Drink from 2018.
While the tannins are still firm, this has the potential to be a fruity wine with attractive acidity. A juicy character will allow the wine to develop quickly. Sylviane Garcin-Cathiard also owns Clos…
While showing too much wood at the moment, this wine has potential. The red berries and black currants promise a fruity future with good tannins in support. Give the wine a few years and drink from 2…
After the promise of the wine at its initial barrel tasting, this bottled wine is less exciting. Berry fruits are muted by the extracted tannins. It's likely the wine will develop quickly. Drink from…
While this wine has wood aromas, the palate also shows plenty of fruit. That combination gives it weight, spice and red-currant flavors along with juiciness. The wine has plenty of development ahead.…
This wine is perfumed with a high proportion of Cabernet Franc, giving structure and tannins as well as blackberry fruits. Like all the wines of the vintage, it is fruity although it balances that ch…
This is a dense wine, full of blackberries and ripe tannins. Juiciness gives the wine the fruitiness that's typical of the best of the vintage. Acidity at the end emphasizes the freshness. Drink from…
Usually Terrunyo exudes blatant ripeness, but this cool-vintage rendition smells stalky, rubbery and herbal more than ripe and lusty. The palate is chunky and extracted, but shallow. Herbal blackberr…
