Made from the Italian varieties of Dolcetto, Refosco and Nebbiolo, this wine is very dry, tannic, acidic and extracted in blackberry and cherry jam and stewed prune flavors. It’s a rough, rustic wine that finishes a little hot. Needs rich meat stews to tame it.

Raw and minty, with a scoury texture framing cherry and wintergreen flavors that finish dry and tart. Drink now.

Pretty sweet for a Zin, with black cherry pie filling, cinnamon toast, pepper spice and vanilla flavors. Acidity and velvety tannins provide needed structure.

Tastes a bit sweet and jammy in sour cherry candy flavors, with high acidity giving it some sting. Doesn’t seem likely to improve, so drink now.

This is a very nice Gewürz at a fair price. It’s crisp in citrusy acidity, giving a cutting edge to the slightly sweet flavors of papaya, litchi, white peach, green apple, vanilla and Asian spice.

Awkward, with high, tart acidity accompanying slightly sweet cherry jam and orange flavors, like a Chinese restaurant sweet and sour fruit sauce.

Has good acidity and lovely tannins, which are soft and plush in the mouth, with good acidity. Feels great, but loses a few points because of green, unripe flavors that ride side by side with riper blackberry ones. That sharpness really kicks in on the finish. —S.H.

Sweet, hot and Porty, with flavors of grilled blackberries, raisins and caramelized brown sugar.

Ripe grapes went into this juicy, extracted wine, with its big, bold flavors of peaches and spice. Oak adds smoky nuances and a round, creamy texture through the long finish.
