Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Tastes like a cherry-berry fruit drink with lots of acidity, giving it a sweet-sour flavor. At least the alcohol is low.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Clumsy, with a vegetal edge to the syrupy pineapple flavors. Finishes sweet enough to suspect some residual sugar.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This plump, medium-bodied Sauvignon Blanc features distinct notes of fig and nectarine alongside hints of passion fruit. It's a bit sweet and simply fruity, finishing without much length. Drink now.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Soft and sweetly jammy, with a thick mouthfeel and lush flavors of blackberry jam, melted chocolate and anise liqueur. Okay for BBQ.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Here’s a dry, tannic Merlot that’s fine with burgers, barbecued steaks and other comfort foods that require a full-bodied red. With currant and cherry flavors, it’s a good buy at this price.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Here’s a good, everyday Cab if you’re looking for a bargain. It’s dry, tannic and earthy, with suggestions of currants and oak.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A delicious Pinot Noir. Set it beside more expensive bottlings and it stands up well. Silky and rich, with raspberry and cherry purée, cola, sweet vanilla and sandalwood flavors, and a long, spicy finish. Production was 26,000 cases.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
From Yakima Valley grapes, this is a solidly made Riesling with just a trace of sweetness. Citrus fruits, lemon oil and hints of tea and honey fill out the palate, which has a pleasing roundness.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Sweet and simple, with sugary flavors of blackberry and cherry jam and smoky vanilla. Almost like a dessert wine.
