Wine Spectator: Herbal, gamy notes give this polished red a slightly feral character, accenting a core of plum and licorice. Features a polished texture, and the light tannins and lively acid...

Wine Spectator: A ripe and rich tawny. Loads of caramel, honey and dried fruits, with just a hint of Douro bake, or iodine character. Full-bodied, sweet and very toffeelike on the palate. Lon...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2010 Pinot Grigio Jesera is very nicely done. A rich, textured fabric of varietal fruit caresses the palate in this generous, expansive white. For the first time I note a ...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Pale yellow. High-pitched, mineral-driven aromas of lemon zest, talc and spearmint. Taut and juicy, showing citrus fruits, a hint of green apple and strong minerality. Pick...

Wine Spectator: Plump and enticing, with a mouthwatering anise note that pulls you in quickly before delivering waves of blueberry, açaí berry and plum fruit, followed by bouncy spice and flo...

Wine Spectator: A roasted mesquite frame lends a grippy edge to the notes of steeped plum, anise and blackberry in this dark red, which is juicy and edgy at the same time, with spice and chal...

Wine Spectator: Nice, ripe, saturated feel, with lots of cassis and crushed plum fruit coursing along, and mouthwatering spice and graphite kicking in on the finish. Very tasty.-J.M.

Wine Spectator: Offers a density and lushness that belies the appellation, with a full, polished structure and deep plum, blackberry paste and steeped black cherry fruit flavors. The long, an...

Wine Enthusiast: The wine has some weight and an attractive meat and smoke character to go with the black berry fruits. Well balanced, shot through with acidity. R.V.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2010 Mathilde is 100% Merlot in 2010, and the alcohol is at 15%. The wine is a blockbuster, a delicious, hedonistic St.-Emilion fruit bomb with loads of blackberry, raspbe...

About this Wine: The grapes were all harvested by hand and collected in boxes holding from 33 to 44 lb., after they were destalked and very lightly crushed. The fermentation cellar was pla...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: A major sleeper of the vintage, this blend of equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot is another "best ever" performance. Notes of tobacco leaf, hot rocks, sweet kirsch and ...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: Made from a similar blend, with slightly more Cabernet Sauvignon and less Merlot, the slightly austere 2008 exhibits black currant, herb and damp earth characteristics. Consum...

Wine Spectator: A ripe, fleshy style, with lots of fig and mulled blackberry and blueberry fruit. Good toast and ganache notes thread this together, with a muscular feel on the finish. An ove...

Wine Spectator: Solid, if a touch chewy along the edges right now, as briar, cocoa and licorice snap notes are out in front of the core of pastis-soaked plum and blackberry fruit. There's lot...

Wine Spectator: Solidly built, with notes of singed vanilla bean and a flicker of espresso framing the core of plum, red currant and steeped cherry fruit. Toasty but sleek, with a perfumy edg...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Dark ruby. Deeply pitched dark berries and dried flowers on the nose, with a brighter red fruit quality emerging with air. Spicy raspberry and blackberry flavors coat the pala...

Burghound: A perfumed and very pinot nose displays only traces of warm earth that also characterize the round, supple, forward and already accessible flavors that culminate in an attract...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Rosso di Montalcino is a gorgeous wine bursting with dark red fruit. It shows plenty of harmony and fine overall balance. Sweet spices and flowers linger on the warm,...

Wine Spectator: Still a bit compact, with blueberry coulis, fig and blackberry paste notes tightly wound, backed by tangy black licorice, singed apple wood and tar on the finish, which featur...
