In the classic Portuguese tradition, this is a blend of four of the Alentejo's local grapes. Together they give big power and dark tannins. They also offer great black fruits, fresh acidity and a fir…

It's hard to find a tastier Pinot Noir for this price. Aromas of rose petals, pungent violets and raspberry juice show just a touch of chai tea, and the palate proves juicy and fun, with cranberry, p…

Aromas of blackberry syrup, black pepper, fresh fennel stalk and mint emerge from this wine, which comes from a five-acre vineyard in one of Monterey County's warmest appellations. Full, ripe flavors…

This is not necessarily a classic Grenache, but there is no denying its bold but sophisticated personality. Pomegranate and blackberry aromas are tinged with earthiness, and the flavors are rich in f…

This shows the excellent potential for this emerging grape in Southern Oregon. A mix of citrus, with the emphasis on orange and grapefruit, displays as much of the flavors of skin as flesh. The balan…

The granite soil and ocean climate of Château-Thébaud—plus two years aging in tank—give this wine good richness while also retaining the crisper aspects of Muscadet. A delicate salty character lies o…

With its wood aging and rich, concentrated black cherry fruits, this is an impressive wine. Aged for 18 months in wood, it is a special selection that brings out rich fruits, a ripe structure and som…

This Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend has high ambitions, to judge by the richness. It is absolutely massive in blackberries, black currants, dark chocolate and caramelized oak. It's far too strong to…

Petit Verdot is the current darling of the Bordeaux crowd in California. It's not hard to see why. It produces darkly colored, dry wines, deeply flavored in currants, cassis, chocolate and, often, vi…

A majority varietal, a dying breed in the Napa Valley, this also has 5% Petite Sirah. The combination is dense and syrupy in strawberry and a tightness of oak. Time will soften its edges, and there's…

Inky red-violet to the eye, this blend of 55% Syrah, 35% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Merlot has a nose of black cherry and cherry cola. Brisk acidity compensates for powerful tannins, with flavors of…
