Single vineyard Zinfandel from a young vineyard on the Columbia River, this is pretty rather than powerful, smooth and chocolaty, with bright, tight raspberry fruit.
Some lemon-zest texture characterizes this otherwise rounded wine. It has good bright fruitiness, a hint of wood and full white fruit flavors. It needs to age, so drink from early 2015.
Ripe scents of spiced wild strawberry, raspberry and herbal tea lead onto the lush medium- to full-bodied palate, which tastes concentrated and lively. The long finish is marked by a tangy orange-zes…

Attractive and fruity, it has a lively mousse and refreshing apple flavors. Crisp and bright, it's ready to drink as a delicious apéritif.
Initially this wine is flat and a bit chemical on the nose, but with time lime and tropical fruit aromas poke through. The mouthfeel is round but a little bland and broken up, while flavors of yeasty…
Delicious scents of honey, apples and petrol lead to a luscious, full-bodied palate full of smoke and honey with a gripping lime skin astringency on the finish. Rich in honey tones, yet quite dry, th…
A brisk, bright Chardonnay, made in the Testarossa style of ripe fruit and oakiness. What it lacks in subtlety it makes up for in the sheer power of tangerine, pineapple and tropical fruit flavors, e…

Nuarè is a bright and cheerful Pinot Noir with fruit sourced from northern Italy that shows pretty nuances of forest berry and blue flower. The mouthfeel is lean and compact but the low price is one…

Here's a toasty, rich blend of various grapes including Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Nero and Refosco that shows well evolved aromas of spice, dusty mineral, candied fruit, plum and prune. It sh…
A little tough and gritty around the edges, a rustic wine rich in extracted cherry and blackberry jam flavors. Plenty of strong tannins and zippy acidity too. Feels unresolved, and the question is wh…
Intense notes of white flower and lemon peel perfume this lovely aromatic white. Dry on the palate, with tart tangerine and lime flavors, it is marked by hints of blossom and zesty lime pith. Crisp a…
Light pink in color, with sweet overtones of honey and candied peach, this would pair with poppyseed cake or apple tart. The finish is thick and opulent.
A blend of 60% Pinot Nero and 40% Chardonnay, this pretty off-dry sparkler delivers floral aromas of jasmine and pink rose, with sweet notes of marzipan and honey at the back. The perlage is smooth a…
From the lesser-quality 2006 vintage, this is a gentle and tangy selection. It has lemon zest and steely acidity, with light touches of grapefruit and crisp apple. Not for aging, this is an attractiv…

This has aromas and flavors of yellow apple, citrus zest, bread crust and a buttery note. Small vigorous bubbles provide the backdrop while a bitter walnut flavor marks the finish.
This wine has a dual nature, displaying both herbal and citrus characteristics. A crisp texture and some spiciness indicate its youth. It will be better with some age, so drink from 2017.
