* Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Sweet as can be, with strong aromas of talcum powder and air freshener. Rather lean in the mouth, with a watery, processed flavor profile. Not awful but not much to write home about.

Pale in color, almost silver, with light but fresh floral aromas. A touch simple on the palate, but still round and tasty enough to earn points; you’ll find attractive pear and cinnamon flavors. Lightweight yet fluid on the finish. An easygoing but likable rendition of Torrontès. Imported by Victoire Imports.

A wine that seems to be striving for more than it can deliver. The nose is jammy and big, with maple, toast and other sweet wood-driven notes. Candied and ripe throughout, with marshmallow and vanilla on the finish. Clumsy in the final analysis.

The bouquet on this bold red amounts to one big blast of fruit, nothing more or less. The palate matches the nose, with black plum, blueberry and cola flavors. Broad in the mouth and fiercely tannic. Spirited but a little untamed.

A little bit of bramble and green on the nose, but by and large this wine is solid. The palate offers sweetness and brown sugar along with zesty fruit, while the tannic structure and persistence are unavoidable. Imported by Victoire Imports.

Light pear, pineapple and honey aromas don’t hold up to much airing or swirling. In the mouth, it’s all citrus, largely lemon and orange. Finishes perky and zesty, but without much focus. Hails from La Rioja.

Pungent, with aromas of green herbs, litchi fruit and green melon. Starts better than it finishes, and along the way you’ll find moderate peach and melon flavors riding on a competent palate.

Reduced and tight on the nose, with sharp, foresty cherry and berry flavors. Straightforward and firm.

Open and light, with raspberry and foresty aromas. Very lean on the palate. Shows red raspberry and pepper flavors in front of an innocuous, flyweight finish. A thin wine that manages to taste decent.

Heavy and burnt, with tire-rubber aromas perched aside leather and black olive. Carob and plum flavors with a soy sauce note to the finish. Not a lot going on here.
