The bouquet offers mango, wild flower and other sweet aromas. Flavors of apple and pear control the palate, while a dry and balanced finish closes things out.

Very light in color and strange in the nose; the cherry aromas are candied and downright strange. The palate is of little consequence and the finish is lean and tastes of cherry infused tea. –M.S.

Aromas of gumdrop, lemon juice and anise create a stylish impression, however, the wine turns more zesty and tangy in the mouth. Flavors of grapefruit, lemon and apple are open yet ultimately rather simple.

Trapiche is behind this fruity, somewhat sweet Cabernet that should have mass appeal. The bouquet is packed with rubber, smoked meat and plum, while the palate runs sweet, with raspberry and beet flavors. Some milk chocolate on the finish leaves a chewy, sweet impression.

This wine from Trapiche has a banana bouquet and clashing flavors of lemon, papaya, grapefruit and toast. It’s lean and tangy, and almost tastes like bits of Sauvignon Blanc and/or Viognier were thrown in.

Fairly round and solid, with citrus, nectarine and honey aromas. Tastes a bit more like orange juice than a fine white, but the mouthfeel and acid-fruit balance is acceptable. Best with simple Asian foods and salads.

Smells fine, with flowers and mixed stone fruits. The palate is thin but sweet, with ripe apple and mango flavors. As might be expected from a value Chard, the finish is syrupy and a touch hot, but not offensively so.

For a five-spot you get syrupy but fairly deep red fruit in the cherry, raspberry and plum category. The mouthfeeel is more than acceptable, while the overriding jammy sweetness could muster mass appeal.

Artificially jammy and sweet, with medicinal cherry aromas and flavors. Fairly hard, with gritty tannins. More of an effort than it should be.
