Vinanmeldelser

Dette er et tropisk duftende produkt fra New Zealands første karbonnøytrale vingård. Smakene av ananas og grapefrukt dominerer ganen, med hint av jicama og jalapeño på ettersmaken.

En god, rik, noe rustikk blanding av Zinfandel, Petite Sirah og Syrah, laget fra eiendommens vingård. Den er knusktørr og tanninrik, med smaker av bjørnebær, blåbær, sjokolade og krydder. Drikk denne…

Nærmer seg en fin North Coast Bordeaux-flaske med komplekse smaker av bjørnebær og rips samt tørrhet, men det er noen problemer. Syren er høy og ganske påtrengende, og eiketanniner ser ut til å domin…

Rubbery, smoky berry aromas turn more dusty and earthy with airing. The palate is forward and fresh in feel, with herbal plum and spicy red-berry flavors. Notes of herbs and olive dominate a solid fi…

This is a light wine with red fruits, a stalky texture and cool, refreshing acidity. It's the style of wine that could well be better as a summer red, lightly chilled. The final texture shows crisp f…

Viognier represents 60% of the blend, unusual for the Southern Rhône, and it imparts white pepper and ginger to the bouquet, a broad, oily texture, and bold apricot flavor. The balance is 30% Clairet…

Completely mature, this lightly wood-aged wine has a smooth, mushroom and red fruit flavor. A touch of tannin gives dryness and delicious, refreshing acidity as an aftertaste. Drink now.

This is a rich wine, with a texture that's comfortably cushioned by ripe cherry and plum flavors. It's a wine to savor now, full and fruity.

A Bordeaux-style blend, predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon, from vineyards throughout the Napa Valley. This red is made in a more robust style, the tannins still a tad dry, the fruit earthy in sage and…

Elderflower scented freshness dominates this light-footed, soft sparkler. Balance, a dry finish and an easy-drinking style make this a light-hearted party-wine of welcome freshness.

A fresh and white-fruited wine. It has the crispest acidity along with open melon and peach fruits, moving to a soft, ripe aftertaste. A great apéritif wine.

This vineyard, and the AVA it occupies, is often characterized by some sharp metallic mineral-driven flavors. Here it seems just marginally ripe, with beet, black tea and metal dominating the astring…

Ripe, almost-sweet fruit flavors dominate this full-bodied, soft-textured wine. It's a richer, oakier style of Pinot than most but will make a lot of people happy with its easy-going, welcoming perso…

This blend that seems to include every Corsican and Provence red grape works out as a wild and wonderful wine. With acidity, spice, perfume and tannins that bring in a bramble texture, this is a wine…

Aromas of white peach and dusty minerals lead to a chunky palate that struggles to maintain its shape and cut. Pithy, lightly bitter peach and citrus flavors end with the sensation of licking a peach…

Ripe, soft wine, deliciously rounded with fresh white and green fruits combining into a creamy herbaceousness. There is a final tang to this concentrated, full wine. Screwcap.

Quite firm and focused, with a dominating scent of cut tobacco. The black cherry fruit is set against juicy acids, and rolls into a finish with streaks of licorice and more of that cut tobacco flavor.

A deliciously fruity wine, with flavors of pear, quince and sultanas in a full, ripe sauce. Rich, with good concentration, worth aging for 3–4 years.

This is a perfumed wine that is soft, full of red cherry fruit and gentle tannins. It does have a dry core that gives the wine shape and there is plenty of juicy fruitiness at the end. The wine is ma…

There's a ton of ginger spice mingling nicely with the strong floral component of honeysuckle, orange blossom and dried hibiscus flowers in the nose of this wine. Ripe peach and grapefruit oil suppor…

Over-oaked, with caramelized vanilla aromas and flavors dominating. Under all that is a pretty good Cabernet, with blackberry and cherry flavors and smooth tannins.

This Sangiovese-dominant blend opens with red cherry and dried tobacco leaf aromas. A hint of clove accents the palate, which is full of red plum fruit and smooth but rather fleeting tannins that giv…

The 65% of Merlot in the blend gives a wine that is soft and rounded. With its acidity and fine tannins, it is fresh and fruity. Black currants and berries dominate a wine that will be ready to drink…

Rubbery earthy aromas include black-fruit scents and a touch of prune. This Mencía feels raw, drawing and pinched. Overt oak notes share the flavor profile with tart plum and currant, while the finis…
