Vinanmeldelser

Aromas of herb, grass, pear and citrus lead to sleek fruit flavors. It shows a lot of elegance but lacks concentration.

Basic apple and yeast aromas are fairly neutral but clean. This feels fresh, fruity and simple. Lemon-lime and apple flavors finish clean as well as cleansing.

An unfussy nose of rapberries and grape jam leads to a crisp, juicy palate that finishes with appealing blackberry flavors. The lack of tannin makes this smooth example a good choice for pasta in a t…

Muscular tannins nearly mask raspberry and cherry notes in this structured red. The juicy palate leads to a fairly long, earthy finish. Drink with pepperoni and sausage pizza.

Inviting raspberry and cherry aromas have a tiny level of volatility, while the palate is chunky, bold and edgy, with big berry flavors leading the way. Full on the finish, with some oak and vanilla…

Dry, soft and simple, with pleasant flavors of grilled cherries, raspberries, cola, red licorice, red currants and smoky oak. The texture is nice and silky. Drink now.

Black cherry, mocha and pepper lead on this easy-drinking red from Chaddsford. On the palate, soft cherry fruit, cedar spice and chocolate give the wine a luscious edge. Pair with Mexican mole, spice…

Grassy and pungent, with lime, citrus and white pepper on the nose. Tangy and simple across the palate, with basic pineapple and passion fruit flavors. Good but thins out on the finish, leaving lefto…

Fontanafredda's Moscato d'Asti is a cut above its competitors, with intense orange, grape and pear aromas that lead into a palate of white grapes and ground cherries. The medium finish is intensely s…

Currant, cola, spice and cherry lead this layered Cab from Delfosse. It's an approachable style but with added character: cinnamon spice, tobacco and black cherry on the palate is integrated and smoo…

This is a plush and upfront wine that offers succulent aromas of cherry, black fruit and plum. It glides clean down the palate thanks to its thick density and soft, smooth texture. The wine has the p…

Aromas like new leather and wet earth, then flavors like pomegranate give this medium-bodied wine a funky, off-beat character. It feels firm in texture from fine-grained tannins, and should work well…

Toasty, briny citrus aromas lead to a pinched and strained palate. The flavors are a touch bitter, with oily apple and stone-fruit flavors. The nutty finish is solid but low on fruit character.

A majority varietal, this widely distributed wine also contains Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. Dense and flat on the palate, it dances in bay leaf and black cherry, finishing with more herb…

Earthy, meaty black-plum aromas come with a touch of latex and leather. This is plump but lacking in the midpalate, while flavors of herbal plum and currant finish mild.

Crushed blueberry aromas meet resinous herb and green peppercorn notes. The medium-bodied palate is round, with mild flavors of tart blackberry and cherry leading to a lightly-toasted vanilla finish.

Dry, leathery aromas precede a grabby but fresh palate. Tomato and plum flavors are in the lead, with herbal, soupy notes running close behind. Similar to the primary attack, this finishes herbal and…

Dark and full-bodied in style and taste, this savory wine offers leathery tannins and value for the quality. Wild berries rise to the fore on the nose and palate, with a floral rejoinder and herbal,…

Livlige aromaer av grapefrukt, hvite blomster og mineral leder inn i en lett, fruktig, men ganske enkel gane som tilbyr lime, grønne urter og stein. Alt i alt er den enkel og ren, men litt utvannet.…

Syrah fra sentrale Toscana? Selvfølgelig. '98-versjonen av Colvecchio, et tilbud fra et varmt år, er slankere enn man kunne forvente og mangler noe dimensjon. Den har mye eik i starten og en overflod…

Aromaer av lim, baconfett og jord gir en forvirrende bukett som egentlig ikke ønsker deg velkommen. Den fyldige, kremete ganen har noe frisk sitrus, men mest handler det om umoden melon. Den syrlige,…

Slanke, krydrede aromaer setter scenen for en røykfylt, plommefylt smak som sannsynligvis er litt for brent for sin egen skyld. Kroppstyngden her er moderat, men det er mye lengde i den røykfylte, ei…

Alt fatgjæret; omtrent halvparten gjennomgikk malolaktisk gjæring. Dette er en veldig lett, grønn epleaktig vin, med faste syrer og ren, lett kanelkrydret frukt.

Det er ikke så lett å kjenne frukten i denne vinen, men ved utholdenhet vil man oppdage litt fersken og grapefrukt, samt en liten antydning til melon og pære. Ettersmaken er også noe ubetydelig, med…
