by William Allen Garnet and modestly opaque to the eye. Aromas of cranberry, black cherry, spice, and a hint of earth hit the nose. Bold on the front of the palate with black fruit and cherry. Lush with fruit carrying-read more-
Côte-Rôtie, one of the most remarkable appellations in the Northern Rhône region, is famous for its wines made from syrah, grown on a steep and sunny hill, very often with a splash of viognier. Or are they? Some producers are-read more-
A surprising find (well, OK, to be honest, it was provided). Citrusy notes on the nose, with perhaps a bit more lemon that one might expect. Nice flavors of grapefruit and caramel on the palate, with good acid. The most-read more-
This is an excellent, balanced expression of Viognier that is a pleasure to drink. Medium yellow straw, vibrant, clear in the glass. The nose is as fragrant as a Viognier should be, but not overpowering with notes of white peach,-read more-
The kind of wine you either love or hate – I loved it, and the person with whom I was drinking it disliked it. This is a big, muscular Napa Cabernet on steroids (14.8% alc.) that needs at least a-read more-

酒庄主是一位在纳帕谷的重要人士，也是另一家更高端的Quintessa酒庄主的堂兄弟。这款酒闻起来有黑莓，桉树，大地的味道。丰富的口感似乎是由众多种味道融为而成：黑葡萄干，可可/巧克力，甚至一些南瓜派混合香料的触感。有水果味，但是单宁略微有些重，且酒有点“热“（14.5％酒精度）使它看起来有点不够平衡。一个给力的中等长度的余味还略带甜味。总之相比起来在纳帕其他较为昂贵的邻居来说这是一款相当不错的酒，可以尝试架烤牛排和它搭配。极力推荐。 标签：2006年，美乐，品丽珠，赤霞珠，加利福尼亚州，浮士德，Faust，马尔贝克，纳帕谷，小味儿多，Quintessa，红葡萄酒，酒评，酒
如果你认为所有加州西拉是酒体重且浓郁的水果味，那这款从埃德蒙兹圣约翰（Edmunds St. John）的2009 Wylie会让你重新审视西拉在加州的特点。这是一款果汁浓郁且让人垂涎的酒，有着相当愉悦的余味。明亮清澈的红宝石/石榴石的颜色，它比起大多数加州的酒的话更于法国罗讷（Rhône）北部的酒。在香气和口味而言，它是既活泼又十分令人兴奋的酒，从辛香味（香菜，白胡椒）渐渐向像丹麦的樱桃味糖浆类的味道转移。另一点令人回味的是还具有根汁汽水的味道，以及一点点肉香，像干腌猪肉或陈年牛肉干。总之这是一款非常令人满意的，易于佐餐的葡萄酒。 标签：2009年，加利福尼亚州，Edmunds St. John，埃德蒙兹圣约翰，红葡萄酒，西拉，酒评，酒
