Sugary sweet, with pastry-filling flavors of raspberries, peaches, pineapples, vanilla and toast. Clean and brisk, but almost a dessert wine.

The high alcohol gives this wine heat, a chili pepper kind of burn that isn’t exactly unpleasant. It seasons the rich blackberry and black cherry flavors, and causes the tastebuds to crave the alleviating effects of food. Grilled lamb would be perfect. Finishes sweet, which for me reduces the score a point.

This is a Châteauneuf-style blend of Rhône varieties, a soft, simple and slightly sweet red. It brims with ripe black cherry, raspberry, mocha-choca, cola, rum punch and licorice flavors.

Here’s a blend of traditional red Rhône varieties with Zinfandel. It’s a great concept, but the problem is that the wine is too sweet, and tastes artificially acidified.

Tastes like there’s quite a bit of unresolved sugar in this blend of Roussanne, Marsanne and Viognier, even if there officially isn’t. To this palate, that’s a major flaw in a table wine that’s supposed to be dry.

A bit cloying for me, although lovers of semisweet wines will like it for its jellied apricot, peach and honeysuckle flavors. Fortunately there’s good acidity.

Almost a dessert wine, it’s so rich in sugary flavors of pineapples, apricots, peaches and vanillas. Crisp acidity fortunately provides clean balance, but it’s not really a dry table wine.

A good, everyday red wine, medium-bodied and dry, with complex cherry, currant, lavender, herb, spice and sandalwood flavors. Nicely constructed and savory.

Tastes tart in acids and slightly sweet, not a good combination, especially at this price. The apricot and pineapple flavors have a sweet-and-sour, Chinese sauce flavor.

This is way too sweet, with too sweet flavors of pie-filling peaches, pineapples and apricots. More like a dessert wine than a table wine.
