* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

The nose offers a full, interesting blend of Oriental spice, cherry, ginger and soy elements. The flavors turn to tart cherry, and brisk, slightly drying tannins show on the finish.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

The nose on this wine was difficult at first, yielding sulfur and some barnyard. The palate, however, issues chocolate and cherries, while the finish is mildly bitter and thick. Two of our panelists thought it good, but much like a liquid confection. Our third reviewer gushed over its soft, supple feel and early drinkability.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

Powerful and serious, with condensed aromas of cassis and spice. This wine features a racy, lithe feel that’s fostered by puckering acidity and lively but not overaggressive tannins. The mouth deals a mixed bag of sweet, snappy fruit, and fortunately very little in the way of intrusive characteristics.

A minty nose blends in some floral and citrus scents as well, giving this light-bodied wine some interest. Flavors are minty, too, verging on wintergreen, and finishing clean and fresh.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

Odd aromas of candy, Windex and lime lead into an overtly sweet and cloying palate of lime and seedless white table grapes. Some Asti sparklers are good despite their sweetness, but this one is borderline acceptable.

Dried cherry, leather, tomato and spice make for a common, recognizable bouquet, while the palate offers fresh plum and raspberry with shadings of cedar and vanilla. Lighter tannins, decent acidity and good on the tongue. All in all, it does not push the envelope.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

Deep and eminently attractive, with huge aromas of raisin, fudge, prune and fruitcake. As broad and smooth goes, this is it. The feel is velvety, the depth coming in several layers. Elegant, forceful and a bit hedonistic.

Honeyed apple and cream on the nose, with chunky, spiced apple and pear flavors. Full bodied, with plenty of flavor but not much zest. Imported by Fedway Imports.

* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012

Light, tight and leathery, a living version of a stripped down wine. The emphasis is squarely on red fruit, and that means it’s a bit sour. Nonetheless it’s innocuous and goes down easy.

Almost overly floral and sweet, with the palate showing an overdose of heavy citrus fruit. Finishes expectedly sweet, with a good mouthfeel. Attacks forcefully.
