This blended white combines Tocai Friulano (60%) with Pinot Bianco (25%) and Pinot Grigio (15%) in a tasty, corpulent wine well worth its modest price. Bold flavors of oranges, pink grapefruits and ripe cherries mingle in the mouth; the only quibble is that it finishes a little short.

Here’s a pleasant, easy-to-drink blend of Merlot and Cab Sauvignon that begins with earth, bacon and blackberry aromas, which in turn are trailed by basic berry and plum-like flavors. The finish is mildly toasty, with notes of coffee and bramble. The tannins are soft, so the wine feels substantive and rich.

Clearly this 67% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot blend is designed to appeal to the international market, meaning it’s extracted, rich, supple and at 14.5%, rather high in alcohol (for a Veneto wine). That said, it is truly luscious and delicious, with black fruit pouring out of the glass. Accents of oak, tobacco and vanilla make it all the more friendly. Cellar Selection.

Not a vaudeville act, but the second edition of a new wine. The name refers to the wine’s mixture—Pino for Pinot Bianco (25%) and Pinot Grigio (15%) and Toi for Tocai (60%). That said, the wine starts with lovely grapefruit, pear and almond scents. On the palate, there is good weight, lively acidity and a viscous mouthfeel. The finish, however, is somewhat short with an unusual petrol-like note.

Breganze is a village in the hills north of Venice. The grapes, Tocai and Pinot Bianco, also come from Breganze—hence the wine’s name. The bouquet is primarily pear with some petrol in the distance. Good balance and weight, together with the crisp acidity and an oily mouthfeel, complete the structure. The finish is long with some almond and petrol notes.

Seductive, succulent and hedonistic. This 77% Cabernet Sauvignon and 33% Merlot blend is incredibly forthcoming and ready to drink immedi ately thanks to its rich toasted notes, chocolate fudge, blackberry, leather, tobacco, menthol and herbal aromas. There’s a ton of vanilla and sweet spice on the velvety finish and melted chocolate on the close.
