Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Ultra-soft and a bit hot from high alcohol, this red wine is made in the modern cult style. It tastes of melted milk chocolate, blackberry jam, cassis and smoky new oak, with a hint of Port.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Quite an attractive white wine, for its dryness, acidity and overall balance. Fills a real niche in giving us a citrusy, mineral-fresh wine with crisp acidity that will support, not compete with, foods ranging from grilled veggies and goat cheese to firm-fleshed white fish and poultry.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Lush and luscious, this Pinot Grigio brims with rich flavors of pineapples, wildflowers and tangy orange zest, with highlights of dusty spices and spearmint. It has the weight of a Chardonnay.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Tastes like a rustic Zinfandel, with spicy, briary flavors of cherries, blackberries, currants and dark chocolate. The tannins are somewhat green and angular.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Almost a late-harvest wine, with its sweetish flavors of currants and raisins with their edge of chocolatey hazelnut. Dusty tannins kick in on the finish. This is an old-style wine that still has aficienados.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Rather heavy and dull, with extracted cherry-berry flavors and soft acids. This dry wine is very full-bodied.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This unoaked Chardonnay is straightforward. It shows crisp flavors of pineapples, pears, green apples and spices, with a fruity-sugary finish.

Viansa Chardonnay - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Does a great job at providing identity to this variety that can often seem a bit muddled. With the structure of a fine Cabernet Sauvignon, it’s softer, with more of a red fruit and red currant taste. Feels elegant and distinguished from beginning to end. Drink now.

Viansa Merlot - 2006

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Pretty basic, a dryly tannic red wine with cherry and herb flavors. Feels hard and sharp in the mouth, with astringent tannins and acids. Could age out.

Viansa Dolcetto - 2007

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Made like an old-fashioned Barbera, this one is truculent in tannins, with a full-bodied mouthfeel housing flavors of blackberries, currants, leather, anise and pepper. It will probably live for two decades, gradually sweetening as it throws sediment, but always remaining rustic.
