Vinanmeldelser

Granittjorden med sin sterke tekstur gir en tettvevd vin full av krydder samt rike gule frukter. Den er kompleks, full av syre, innslag av vanilje og en rikt jevn ettersmak. Drikk fra 2016.

Les Gras Moutons regnes som en av de beste vinmarkene i Sèvre et Maine. Her har den produsert en rikt duftende, aromatisk vin som er strukturert og tett i teksturen. Den er full av syre, nypresset si…

Vinen utvikler seg raskt. Den har alle elementene, med modne kirsebærsmaker og syre sammen med noen faste tanniner. De kommer alle lett og sjenerøst sammen. Den attraktive, modne vinen vil være klar…

Dette er en vin å følge med på ettersom den utvikler seg sakte. Den er full av struktur, konsentrert og solid. Tette tanniner konkurrerer med solbærfruktene fra den høye andelen Cabernet Sauvignon i…

Denne sjenerøse vinen ligger på den fruktige siden av 2014-spekteret. Blåbær- og solbærfrukter støttes av krydder og tanniner fra eikealdring. Vinen vil sannsynligvis utvikle seg godt over middels la…

Fortsatt strukturert og med sine tanniner har denne vinen potensial til å utvikle seg godt. Solbær- og plommefrukter gir en tett, fruktig karakter. Drikk denne vinen fra 2020.

Dette er Yalumbas flaggskip Viognier, fatgjæret for et ekstra lag av rikhet. Fiken-, melon- og aprikosnoter preger både nese og gane, og selv om den er fullt modnet og fyldig, håndterer den alkoholen…

An impressive wine from this St. Helena winery, with the vineyard below Howell Mountain. It's rich and classic, showing ripe blackberry, blueberry, currant and earthy flavors, with wonderfully thick,…

Good for Cinnabar for holding this Cab back a while, to let it develop in the bottle. Although it's still pretty tannic, it has entered its drinkability window. Dry and full-bodied, it shows classic…

With smoky aromas and structured tannins, this is still young and firm. Under those tannins, the black currant fruit is developing to give a ripe wine with fine acidity and structure. Drink from 2020.

This balanced wine shows fine potential. Its structure dominates at the moment, with solid tannins, but the rich black fruit is all there. Let it develop over the next several years and drink from 20…

Old forgotten Corsican varieties have been revived for this imaginative blend. Vinified and aged in cement eggs, it has extra richness and concentration. Ripe melon, yellow fruit and spice notes ming…

Toast, moist underbrush, grilled herb and balsamic aromas lead the nose. On the full-bodied austere palate, fine-grained tannins support tart cherry, cranberry, vanilla and star anise. Give this seve…

This beloved annual bottling by Randall Grahm blends 39% Mourvèdre, 33% Grenache, 26% Syrah and 2% Cinsaut to create a very savory, Old World-style expression, with aromas of roasted game, pencil sha…

Dried blackberry aromas include welcome notes of cigar box and tar. This moderately complex Tannat is lush, round and smooth. Flavors of black plum and blackberry are supported by toasty oak, while t…

Great balance and a charming lighter character make this lightly floral wine especially enjoyable. The orange blossom aromas and ripe melon flavors are vivid but not heavy as they weave through a smo…

The second wine from the Saint-Julien estate, this is every bit as elegant as the grand vin, its black currant fruit developing to envelop the fine tannins. There is fine fruit, plenty of acidity and…

This lovely wine has classic green-apple and lime aromas that are fully developed, with a nice backdrop of yeast and dough. In the mouth, it’s very rich. At eight years, the acids and tannins have mo…

While the nose of this sprightly off-dry Riesling is floral and fresh, the palate is almost dense with ripe rich flavors of tropical mango, melon and orange. It's a lush deeply penetrating wine, yet…

Perfumed and juicy, this is already an attractive wine. Fine tannins and plenty of red fruits give a fresh and structured character. With a firmer background, it will develop well. Drink from 2020.

The cool vintage resulted in an unusually lean and streamlined, but by no means uninteresting, wine. It's subtly fruity with hints of citrus zest and grapefruit. The main note, however, is gooseberry…

The winery's Vintage Select Cabernet was famous in its day as one of California's greatest and most long-lived. It's not entirely clear why they changed the name to Vintage Selection, but this is sti…

Spice and wood aromas show on this still-structured wine. It has fresh acidity, red berries and tight tannins that are still developing. The wine is light and fruity while also having enough structur…

One of the successes from Pessac-Léognan, this refined, structured wine is singing already with its fruitiness. Ripe and forward, it is developing into a medium-bodied, perfumed wine that will be rea…
