Fashioned in a fresher, brighter style than most Pinot Grigios, this example has pretty citrus fruit and pear accents on the nose. There’s not much concentration here, but the mouth offers an appealing nuttiness and winds down to a short-to-medium finish of stone fruit. Drink up.

Busts out of the gate with bold red fruit--a mix of raspberries, cherries and strawberries that seem slightly jammy--accented by hints of vanilla and baking spices. The texture is creamy and the finish is long, but the wine does show a touch of warmth on the palate (14.5% alcohol).

Fresh herbs and grapefruit are underlined by a note of resin, creating an impression at once intense and sophisticated. The palate adds lemon and guava which linger briefly on the dry finish. Try with fish and chips. Drink soon.

The Mad Russian manages to evince very ripe fig, orange and candied lemon peel fruit while maintaining a crisp, refreshing structure. Despite a shade of oiliness, the finish is quite appealing; we can only wish the lovely grapefruit and lemon candy flavors would hang around a bit longer. Drink now to one year.

Tastes sweet and sour, like Lifesaver raspberry and lemon candy, with a touch of butterscotch. It’s very rich, so if you like a little sugar in your rosés, it’s for you.

Leads off with effusive blueberry aromas tinged with stone fruit, then delivers plenty of bold, primary fruit on the palate. There’s a touch of Raisinets, too, along with supple tannins and a lipsmacking finish. Easy drinking for lovers of superripe fruit over the next 2-3 years.
