En fin, hverdags Sauvignon, preget av den friske, syrlige syren og sitrusfruktene som kjennetegner druesorten. Smakene av sitrongress, lime og grapefrukt blir rikere av lag med fiken og søt peppermyn…

Ved fem års alder beholder denne Cab Franc fortsatt en solid kjerne av søt, saftig kirsebærfrukt, og er aksentuert med et dryss av sort pepper, malt nellik, kanel, kakao og vanilje. Den har også et s…

Kjennetegnene ved denne blandingen av Cabernet Sauvignon og Franc samt andre Bordeaux-druer er en myk, mild tekstur og moden, fremtredende frukt. Smakene av kirsebær, solbær, krydret lakris og røkt e…

Med en svak sødme til smakene av bringebær, kirsebær, rosa grapefrukt, nellik og pepper, balanseres denne rosévinen av en frisk, sitrusaktig syre. Hvis du liker å drikke vin med sushi eller kinesisk…

The grapes are from one of the warmer parts of the valley, and the wine is sweet and ripe in tangerine, apricot and vanilla flavors. Crisp acidity provides fortunate balance to this likeable young wi…

With additions of Syrah and Pinot Noir, this blush wine is full-bodied and a little heavy. It has flavors of raspberries, cherries and tangerines, with a needed bite of acidity, and the finish is swe…

Aromas of sweet black cherry and dark plum form a good bouquet. The palate has smack and acidic bite, but the flavors are forward and clean, with a focus on plum and black cherry. Finishes full and l…

Reddish in color and big on the bouquet, with sweet berry and cherry aromas. The palate is full and fun, with acidity and heavier, sweeter flavors of strawberry, raspberry and sweet plum. Handles its…

Lots of raspberry and cherry fruit and sweet, caramelized oak in this Pinot Noir. It's rather simple, but crisp in acidity. Not going anywhere, so drink up.

A veritable bouquet of jasmine and orange blossoms, this off-dry Gewürztraminer hits the tongue with a delightful prickle of effervescence. Soft and rich with juicy melon and peach flavors, it finish…

Eccentric, with sweet and sour tangerine, banana and buttered toast flavors. Crisp acidity provides balance, but the wine is nearing the end of its useful period.

With loads of sweet, smoky oak and superripe flavors of orange and pineapple jam, this Chardonnay offers consumers what they want. Good in a California way, but purists will expect something more nua…

Aromatic with notes of petrol, smoke and apple on the nose, this sprightly semisweet Riesling teases the tongue with the slightest tickle of effervescence. The palate balances sweet pink grapefruit w…

Honest, citrusy aromas are simple and nice, while the palate is spritzy, zesty and tastes mildly sweet but also correct with mango, lime, apple and orange flavors. Clean, fun and leaning toward sweet…

Good Cabernet Sauvignon, spicy, full bodied and fruity. It's a little gritty and rustic in the mouth, with the blackberry and cherry flavors turning jammy sweet. Drink now.

A strong Zinfandel, tannic, high in alcohol and fruity, and brimming with wild forest cherry and raspberry liqueur, exotic spices and sweet sandalwood. Drink it with a juicy cheeseburger, a spicy bee…

Higher in acids and lower in sugar than the regular bottling, and shares most of the same charactertistics. Packed with jammy white stone fruit and floral flavors. Lees adds a rich, creamy texture. S…

This Aleatico made from sun-dried grapes is a perfect companion to chocolate-based desserts. It's a red, sweet wine from the Tuscan island of Elba with aromas of black cherry, jam, pomegranate and sp…

A ton of oak aromas hit with force: there's butterscotch, mocha and caramel leading the pack. The palate is pretty jacked up on sweet cassis and berry flavors, so don't expect too much in the way of…

The majority of Calina's wines are solid and worth their price, as is this lively Cab. It gets going with forward aromas of leather, cassis and earth. The palate isn't super structured or advanced bu…

Lungarotti's bright Pinot Grigio from Umbria offers sunny aromas of peach, orange peel and honeysuckle. There are mature fruit notes here with sweet overtones that would work with appetizers or light…

Dark, meaty and mellow on the nose, with blackberry and a distant hint of tomato leaf. It's a fraction candied and scratchy in the mouth, but the mildly herbal plum and cherry flavors are solid. Swee…

This wine marches to its own tune, with appealing but unusual opening notes of berries, plastic, chocolate and petroleum that add to the prominent red cherry note on the palate. There's a lot of extr…

Super-fruity, with intensely concentrated blackberries, cassis and milk chocolate, while the oak is very heavy in sweet caramel and buttered toast. Not showing much now beyond sheer power. Could deve…
