A barrel-heavy blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Verdejo? That’s what this is, so expect popcorn and bland white fruit along with plenty of acidity. On one hand, it’s an angular, sour wine that makes you wonder; on the other hand, it blends toast, butter, baked apple and lemon into a nutty whole that’s not bad. Has both merits and faults.

Dusty, lightly oaked berry aromas are entirely regular, while the berry driven palate is dry, drawing and oaky, with pretty good body but stand-out acidity as well. Tastes a bit woody and peppery late. A highly generic wine that makes you wonder why it costs $30.

Bright purple bug juice, with more than enough jumpy fruit and medicinality. Young and gummy in the mouth, with electric blackberry and boysenberry flavors along with sheer acidity and excess weight. 85% Tempranillo with Shiraz.

A bit jumbled early on, and then more open and minerally. The palate is chunky but hollow, with melon and green fruit flavors. Finishes with a touch of citrus and a soft, quick fade. Bland but easy to drink.

Dry and not all that fruity up front, with a blast of oak. The palate shows weight and bold acidity, which pumps up the lemon, apple and pineapple flavors. A bit sour, scouring and sharp, but also cleansing and fresh. Blunt white wine.
