Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Dark, fruity and common in every way, but sometimes that’s all you need. The wine has a clean, ordinary cassis and berry nose followed by a juicy palate with dark fruit flavors that show accents of vanilla, spice and chocolate. Totally drinkable and likable.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Opens with aromas of burnt leaves and gritty berry fruit. The palate is fleshy and simple, with herbal roasted-berry flavors. Finishes with more herbal flavor and a lightly scratchy feel. Good enough for the money, but a little short in ripeness, character and structure.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Briary and a little hot on the nose, with dust and coffee aromas. The palate is regular in size, with tangy, semisharp currant, raspberry and plum flavors in front of a toasty, mildly minty finish. More snappy and lively than dense and deep. Drink now.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
A lively, surprising bargain made from Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. That it costs merely $8 makes the melon and apple aromas and flavors all the better. Citrusy as it evolves, and clean throughout, with no wavering. A very nice white quaffing wine.

Korta White Blend - 2009

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Herbal berry aromas are solid enough but less than impressive, while the palate is soft, full, round and regular. Full across the palate, with mildly green cassis and berry flavors, then soft, chunky and slightly herbal on the finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Round and ultra oaky on the nose, with creamy mocha aromas. The palate and finish follow suit, meaning a creamy oak feel and flavor dominate. Along the way it’s all vanilla, mocha and candy. Smooth and creamy but where’s the character?
