Light and stony, with flimsy apricot and butterscotch aromas. Flavors of peach, pear and melon lead to a clean, easy finish. Some smokiness and a touch of lees stir interest.

Raspberry and pie cherry aromas are at first sharp but turn earthy in time. In the mouth, it has a proper feel and expressive cherry and blackberry flavors. The finish is round, with grip and bitter chocolate notes. It goes down easy, with a dab of toasty oak flavor.

Tropical and typical for the variety, with lychee and oily match stick on the nose. The palate is competent, with lemon-lime, apple and spiced Asian pear flavors. Dries out nicely on the finish; good Torrontés to drink as soon as possible.

Light in color, with transparency, something you usually don’t see with Malbec. The nose is rubbery, saucy and a touch grassy, while the palate is tannic and grabby, with stewy, rustic, roasted berry flavors. Finishes with the taste of barbecue sauce.

Blackberry, licorice and leather on the nose lead to a tannic, firm palate with stretched dark plum and black cherry flavors. There’s vibrancy and juiciness to the wine, with a firm finish that introduces chocolate. Highly regular, with nothing glaring or wrong.

Has aromas of barbecue sauce and/or marinade, the mouthfeel is sticky, while the flavors are sweet and artificial. With spiked tannins and low acidity, this one struggles to make the grade.

This American-owned label provides just enough quality and true flavor to merit a look. The nose is syrupy and a touch cooked, but the plum and berry flavors are solid. Some coffee and chocolate notes on the finish make up for the wine’s specious balance.

Standard black fruit and unwelcome green notes carry the nose, while an odd mix of oak and indistinct berry fruit man the palate. This wine offers body and grabby tannins, but also some pickled flavors and an unfocused structure.
