This wine colors up medium ruby in the glass. The nose offers brilliant, ripe cherry aromas and very little oak effect. The palate is also fruit-forward, mainly cherry, and it is fresh and clean tasting. It is quite an enjoyable wine. — 20 days ago

9.4

This wine has a golden yellow color in the glass. The nose is highly aromatic, with citrus minerals, apricot and a lanolin note competing for attention. The palate is brisk and full, showing Meyer lemon, guava and a hint of pineapple, all laced with a streak of salinity. The acidity is fresh, but not ripping. The long finish has a sense of apricot outlasting all the other flavors. It's a great wine for sipping, but it paired quite nicely with a way-too-creamy pasta primavera. — a month ago

This wine is a medium-dark red with good clarity. The nose brings a boatload of cherry, black cherry, and plum aromas, with herbal notes and a faint trace of barnyard. The palate is all about the red fruit. Tannins are healthy, acidity is fresh.

In my early days with wine, I paired a Viura with a Triscuit and sharp white cheddar. I thought at the time that it was the best taste I had ever experienced. I still think of that bite often, and I still like to pair Spanish whites with Triscuit and cheese.

This wine is tinted pale yellow and appears quite clear in the glass. Aromas of white nectarine, minerals, and a floral aspect are present, but very faint. The palate brings a savory taste, full of minerality. Acidity is fresh, yet the mouthfeel is full. — 2 months ago

This wine is dark purple, almost indigo. The nose is bright and strident. Aromas of blackberry dominate, and plenty of minerality comes through. A layer of oak spice completes the scene. On the palate, savory is the word. Earthy tones cover the dark fruit, while spices play with a hint of oak. The finish is lengthy and the tannins are firm without being overwhelming. — 22 days ago

9.6

This wine has a yellow-gold color in the glass with nice clarity. The nose is incredible. Minerality is the star, but there is a streak of salinity that comes across with a soapy, lanolin note. The fruit is largely apricot and Meyer lemon. On the palate, there is an explosion of stone fruit and minerality. The acidity is brisk and the finish is long and savory. This is a big white wine, one with personality to spare. — a month ago

9.4

This wine has a vibrant yellow-gold color in the glass. Its nose offers lots of lime and lemon, along with stone fruit, mango, and wet-sidewalk minerality. The palate is fruity, yet with a ton of minerals. On the tongue, the acidity is quite fresh and zippy. Pair it with a creamy shrimp dish. — 2 months ago

9.1

This wine colors up medium dark ruby in the glass. The nose displays blackberry, red plum and raspberry aromas with a hint of oak spice. On the palate is a bountiful show of red fruit and tannins that are firm but not overbearing. I used it in a pasta sauce, and with the spaghetti. The finish is medium length, with the fruit lasting longest. — 23 days ago

9.0

This wine looks like a rosato, lightly tinted for a red wine. The nose offers bright cherry and lilac scents. On the palate, juicy and vibrant red fruit are a delight, while the acidity is refreshing and the tannins are medium-firm. It finishes medium, with plenty of fruity reminders of the sip. With summer on the way, keep this one in mind if you need a light red to chill for the patio. — a month ago

9.3

This wine is medium-dark in the glass. The nose is full of cherry, plum, blackberry, and an herbal note. On the palate, earthy tones shroud the fruit, while a healthy set of tannins excite the tongue. The finish is medium length and the savory notes linger the longest. Pair this wine with beef, lamb, roasted chicken, or even your favorite smash burger. — 2 months ago
