This is a lively, fruity wine, crisp as can be, and finely textured. Drink now for its bright, fresh character.

While this wine is certainly dry, it holds a hint of honey in the baked-apple flavor and tight texture. It's still very young and needs to open up until 2015 to give a less shocking, more rounded aci…

Refreshing and crisp, this is a light, citrus-flavored wine. Great shots of acidity course through the wine to give an intensely fresh and fragrant aftertaste.

Lifted citrus- and pear-scented refreshment describes this wine's purpose. Zesty lemon peel balanced by lots of green pear fruit makes a winning combination.

Stony, minerally aromas are a touch dusty and suggest melon and peach. The palate is round and juicy, while flavors of lime, green melon and gooseberry finish mellow and easy, with a touch of residua…

Fresh, clean aromas of lime chiffon, just-sliced nectarine, light jasmine and honeysuckle greet the nose on this bottling from the longtime producer. Limestone and chalky minerality mark the palate,…

A white Meritage of just over 53% Sauvignon Blanc with the remainder Sémillon, aged in neutral French oak, this wine has a full body and a balance of crispness and weight. Lemon, lime, pear and honey…

Well made in large quantity, this wine offers fleshy tropical papaya around a structure of toasty oak and vanilla. Medium in body and length, it's balanced with a crisp finish.

This is an ambitiously lean style for a widely available brand, showing reserved tension. Aromas of yogurt and freshly-cut apple and nectarine give way to a steely palate of lime pith, flavors much m…

Wild berry, moist soil and a hint of menthol lead the way. The silky, easy-drinking palate shows polish and charm, offering juicy wild cherry, white pepper and a hint of anise alongside sleek tannins…

A candied-cherry nose meets with cinnamon stick, nutmeg and turned earth on the nose of this blend of 78% Grenache, 18% Syrah and 4% Mourvèdre. Dried strawberry and dark cranberry show once sipped, w…

Full of blackberry fruits and ripe tannins, this wine is spicy and with a perfumed character. It does have a dry core of structure to it along with rich fruits and the smoothing effect of wood aging.…

This wine offers very ripe and vivid fruit in the aromas and the flavors, like blackberries and dark plums picked when they're just beginning to shrivel. The texture is broad and the body full, but t…

This 50/50 Duras and Syrah blend from father and son Jean Paul and Nicolas Hirissou is a ripe, fruity wine that is attractively mature. It is finely integrated with berry fruits that are lifted by th…

Graceful acidity balances the big flavor and salty oak of this wine, awash in bite-worthy green apple, tart quince and lemon. The body is medium but expertly textured, providing intense length and we…

Aromas of wild berry, moist soil, menthol and a hint of dark cooking spice lead the way on this fresh, easy drinking red. The medium-bodied palate doles out juicy wild cherry, anise and herb accompan…

Good and dry, with rugged, dusty tannins and fine varietal flavors. Shows real elegance and class, with cherry, red currant, cedar and spice flavors. Drink now–2013.

Spicy, minty aromas and rich flavors like dark chocolate and black cherries add up to a bold, full-bodied wine from the Lange Twins. It has a deep color, moderate tannins to add grip to the texture a…

This blends 51% Merlot with 29% Zinfandel, 15% Petit Verdot and 5% Petite Sirah, combining nicely for a full-bodied expression of chocolate and dried dark cherry. On the palate, it becomes dusty and…

Black-cherry and currant flavors are concentrated but restrained in this full-bodied Bordeaux-style blend. Smoky, woody and a bit savory in style, it's abundantly oaky but should balance out neatly f…

Forward and fruity yet balanced and composed, this bold red blend is made from a kitchen's sink blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Syrah. Luscious black-che…

A structured and concentrated wine that is packed with tannins. It does have some black fruit under this dry structure although the wine misses out on richness. It will be ready to drink from 2017.

Aromas of citrus peel, rubber, spice, and iodine lead to a tight, drawing but full-feeling palate. This tastes herbal, spicy and oaky, with carob accenting black fruit and berry flavors. A minty, oak…
