Here's a good Cabernet to drink now. It's soft and gritty in tannins, with ripely forward blackberry, cherry and currant flavors, coated with sweet, smoky oak.

Here's a good Sauvignon Blanc that will go well with a wide range of foods. Clean, crisp and a little sweet, it has pleasant pineapple, lemon, lime and vanilla flavors.

If you like a little sugary sweetness in your white wines, this is a good one. It's crisp in acidity and very clean, with pie-filling flavors of pineapples, apricots, green apples, vanilla and honeys…

This is a blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, Gewürztraminer and Semillon. It's nicely crisp in acids, with sweet, jammy pineapple, apricot, peach, vanilla and cinnamon spice flavors. Good with A…

Firm, chewy tannins and jammy black cherry flavors mark this dry red wine. It has nuances of currants and anise. Needs oily meats and cheeses to coax out the sweetness.

Luscious aromas of lemon, sweet orange and honey are followed by a burst of honey, orange and spice in this indulgent dessert wine. A choice for fans of unctuous, sweet styles, the wine can be paired…

Floral, crisp, this wine hints at spice, showing green and yellow fruit acidity, cut grass aromas, and dried apricot sweetness. It is relatively full, but this doesn't detract from the apéritif-like…

Quite ripe on the nose, such that raisin and sweetness are front and center. Saturated in the mouth, but as a whole it's a bit flabby and, for the most part, it's neither here nor there. Flavors of p…

Here's a Chardonnay that makes no apologies for what it is. It's simple, direct and sweet, with apricot, orange and vanilla flavors. The price is right for what you get.

The blend is Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache. The alcohol is high, which helps balance the apparent sweetness of this wine. The result is raspberry jam.

A brisk, savory Sauvignon Blanc with rich flavors of citrus fruits, lemongrass, green melons, figs and smoky vanilla spice. Tastes a little on the sweet side.

Here's a pretty good Zin that will win fans for its fruity, spicy flavors. It's kind of sweet, but the acidity is crisp and the tannins are rich, which helps to balance the pie-filling raspberries an…

This cleverly named blend of Petite Sirah and Petit Verdot is rustically likeable. It's a soft, slightly sweet and gigantically fruity wine, with some softening, creamy influence from oak.

With no oak influence at all, this stainless steel-fermented and aged young wine is crisp and clean in vibrant acidity. It shows lemongrass, Lifesaver lemon and lime, and vanilla spice flavors that a…

This is an easygoing wine with pleasing aromas of black fruit, plums, tobacco, moist earth and red beets. The wine is chewy but soft and slightly sweet in the mouth. That combination of flavors and s…

Jammy and fruity-sweet, with peppery raspberry, cherry and mocha flavors, offset by rich, dusty tannins. A sound, everyday Zin that will love gooey cheese melted on almost anything.

A blend of Zinfandel and Syrah, this wine is exceptionally ripe in jammy berry, cocoa and spice flavors. With gentle tannins and a slightly sweet finish, it's an easy sipper.

This self-described “soft” Cabernet is light and low in alcohol. Aromas of herbal berry fruits precede a round plump palate with jammy plum and currant flavors. While quaffable and a touch sweet, thi…

Pale pink in the glass, this sparkling rosé (which is made from Muscat) has aromas of lavender, red cherry and dried rose petals. There are flavors of sweet raspberry and cantaloupe that are topped o…

En ren og lett stil av Chardonnay med aromaer av fersken og melon, etterfulgt av en melonsmakende gane med nektarin og et hint av sødme. Den flatner ut og mister intensitet på ettersmaken, men totalt…

Stor, kraftig og kornete, med høy alkohol og saftige, rosinaktige aromaer. Smaken og aromaene finner et behagelig hvilested, og vinens bakte bær- og brunt sukker-smaker er solide, men litt påtatt og…

Kandiserte, tutti-frutti aromaer gir denne en søt, noe falsk bukett med lite konsentrasjon. Men ganen er seig og fengende nok, med solide men beskjedne smaker av bringebær og rød plomme. Myk på etter…

Kunne og burde vært søtere enn 3,9 % restsukker for å rettferdiggjøre å være en dessertvin. Frister med noe søt bjørnebær, sjokolade og pepper-smaker som trekker seg tilbake til en tanninrik, jordakt…

Blending inneholder 18 % Syrah, som bidrar til å fremheve krydder- og søte fruktaromaer. Men bak dette er det en kraftig og ganske tanninrik vin, med en dissonans mellom jordbærfrukten og den litt st…
