| 125612 | 125611 | Germany | Intense tangerine notes are flecked with hints of powdered sugar, dried herbs and potpourri on this pleasant off-dry Riesling. It's easy drinking with lush, slightly overripe fruit, but finishes quite dry with a steely, honeyed feel. | Bereich Bernkastel | 86 | 13 | Mosel | | | Anna Lee C. Iijima | | Adolph Mueller 2011 Bereich Bernkastel Riesling (Mosel) | Riesling | Adolph Mueller |
| 125613 | 125612 | US | There's some sharpness in this wine, as well as a touch of unripeness. Still, it offers plenty of raspberry and cherry fruit, and is nice and silky, with plenty of sweet oak. Not likely to develop, so drink up. | BCD Vineyard Estate | 86 | 38 | California | Russian River Valley | Sonoma | | | Balletto 2011 BCD Vineyard Estate Pinot Noir (Russian River Valley) | Pinot Noir | Balletto |
| 125614 | 125613 | US | This Triolet is two thirds Cabernet Sauvignon, 27% Cab Franc and 6% Petit Verdot. Despite two years in French oak barrels, 30% new, it carries a strong herbal note in the nose, that carries all through the palate. Stem, herb and pepper are the dominant flavors, along with tart, compact red berries. | Triolet | 86 | 28 | Washington | Walla Walla Valley (WA) | Columbia Valley | Paul Gregutt | @paulgwine | Bunchgrass 2009 Triolet Red (Walla Walla Valley (WA)) | Bordeaux-style Red Blend | Bunchgrass |

| 125616 | 125615 | Italy | From the Rosso Orvietano appellation in Central Italy, this red blend opens with easy fruit tones of cherry and forest fruit followed by light spice shadings.

| 125617 | 125616 | France | Now mature, this is a softly fruity wine, its cherry and black currant fruits attractive rounded out by the gentle tannins. There is a dry core that comes with touches of wood and acidity. Not for aging. | | 86 | | Bordeaux | Côtes de Castillon | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Château de Belcier 2007 Côtes de Castillon | Bordeaux-style Red Blend | Château de Belcier |
| 125618 | 125617 | France | Although the wood aging shows strongly at the moment, there is enough weight of ripe black currant fruits to integrate as the wine matures. Then, it will be a firm-though-fruity wine, solid and chunky. | | 86 | 15 | Bordeaux | Bordeaux Supérieur | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Château Roc Meynard 2011 Bordeaux Supérieur | Bordeaux-style Red Blend | Château Roc Meynard |
| 125619 | 125618 | France | Deliciously attractive wine, crisp and clean as possible. It has a light caramel edge along with a more fruity aspect. To finish, the wine is light and bright. | Perle de Roseline | 86 | 15 | Provence | Côtes de Provence | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Château Sainte Roseline 2012 Perle de Roseline Rosé (Côtes de Provence) | Rosé | Château Sainte Roseline |
| 125620 | 125619 | Italy | Ancilla is a rustic and raw expression of Montepulciano with a point of dried apple skin followed by bright cherry and raspberry.

| 125621 | 125620 | Italy | Passerina is a white grape from Central Italy that has enjoyed an enormous growth in popularity and quality in recent years. This expression offers notes of candied or exotic fruit with subtle tones of apricot and pear at the back. There's a nice feeling of thickness as well that would pair with white meat or shellfish. | Rondineto | 86 | 12 | Central Italy | Colli Aprutini | | | | Fattoria Giuseppe Savini 2011 Rondineto Passerina (Colli Aprutini) | Passerina | Fattoria Giuseppe Savini |
| 125622 | 125621 | US | Sometimes, all you need is an easy Cabernet, and this is one of the more accessible ones out there.

| 125623 | 125622 | Spain | For a fresh, lighter-bodied style of Ribera del Duero, this is pretty good. The nose is herbal and suggests tomato, thyme and dry cherry. The mouth is tight and drawing, with dry raspberry, herb and vanilla flavors that end mildly. Drink this fresh, modest wine now. | Roble | 86 | 22 | Northern Spain | Ribera del Duero | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Mesoneros de Castilla 2008 Roble (Ribera del Duero) | Tempranillo | Mesoneros de Castilla |
| 125624 | 125623 | US | This soft, gentle wine is ready to drink now with umami-rich meats, especially charcuterie.

| 125625 | 125624 | Chile | The nose on this racy SB provides a combo of stalky citrus, minerality and tangerine. The palate feels light, zingy and fairly innocuous, while flavors of green herbs, lime, green apple and lemon finish mild and a bit washed out. This will function best as a well-chilled summer quaffer. | | 86 | 13 | Limarí Valley | | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Peñalolen 2012 Sauvignon Blanc (Limarí Valley) | Sauvignon Blanc | Peñalolen |
| 125626 | 125625 | US | Including nearly a quarter Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Malbec, this estate grown Cabernet Franc is a bit aromatically muted but brings juicy cherry and butterscotch flavors and soft, plush tannins. | | 86 | 32 | Oregon | Rogue Valley | Southern Oregon | Sean P.

| 125628 | 125627 | Italy | This blended red from the little-known Piceno area of Central Italy offers ripe cherry fruit and prune followed by a dusty note of Graham cracker or rye bread. | | 86 | | Central Italy | Rosso Piceno | | | | Saladini Pilastri 2011 Rosso Piceno | Red Blend | Saladini Pilastri |
| 125629 | 125628 | Italy | Sirio is a perfect pizza wine especially if that pie has savory toppings like sausage or spicy pepperoni on it. The wine is aged 12 months in large oak casks for extra softness and a subtle touch of wood spice beyond the bright blackberry and sweet cherry fruit. | Sirio | 86 | 16 | Central Italy | Montepulciano d'Abruzzo | | | | San Lorenzo 2010 Sirio (Montepulciano d'Abruzzo) | Montepulciano | San Lorenzo |
| 125630 | 125629 | Chile | This is a throwback Chilean blend with aromas of tomato leaf, oregano, leather and tobacco along with dried raspberry and cherry. The palate has good flow but is light in weight. Flavors of olive, spice and herbs dominate the wine's light fruit content, while oak and spice flavors control the finish. This is a mix of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. | Anke Blend 1 Cabernet Franc-Petit Verdot | 86 | 20 | Maipo Valley | | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Santa Alicia 2009 Anke Blend 1 Cabernet Franc-Petit Verdot Red (Maipo Valley) | Red Blend | Santa Alicia |
| 125631 | 125630 | US | Sobon's dry rosé (made from 96% Grenache grapes and 4% Syrah) is pinkish-red in color, brisk and structured with acidity, and a great, great value to boot.

| 125632 | 125631 | US | Sweet scents of toasty oak introduce this Syrah-based red wine.

| 125633 | 125632 | Chile | This is a good but generic Chilean Cabernet, meaning it's a bit herbal and fiery, with eucalyptus on the nose. In the mouth, this is medium in intensity and modest in character. Flavors of herbal red berry, carob and dried leaves end with a touch of heat. | Reserva | 86 | | Maipo Valley | | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Viña Pérez Cruz 2010 Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon (Maipo Valley) | Cabernet Sauvignon | Viña Pérez Cruz |
| 125634 | 125633 | Spain | Boysenberry aromas are modest and lack spine. In the mouth, this is standard, with oak-based flavors of toast, chocolate and vanilla on top of generic berry. The finish is thick and oaky, with a touch of raisiny flavor. | V | 86 | 40 | Northern Spain | Vino de Calidad de Valtiendas | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Vivencias 2009 V Tempranillo (Vino de Calidad de Valtiendas) | Tempranillo | Vivencias |

| 125636 | 125635 | US | Soft, rich and sweet, this is an easy Merlot for drinking now. It has ripe, forward cherry, mocha and oak flavors, with a hint of bacon that suggests pairing with pork-based entrées. | | 86 | 36 | California | Paso Robles | Central Coast | | | Kenneth Volk 2008 Merlot (Paso Robles) | Merlot | Kenneth Volk |
| 125637 | 125636 | Austria | Creamy textured wine, soft and ripe. It has attractive pure acidity that lies lightly on the palate, blended well with riper red apple, pear and just crisp acidity.

| 125639 | 125638 | US | High alcohol gives this wine a jalapeño-pepper heat, while extremely ripe grapes bring the blackberry and cherry flavors over the line into currants, raisins and prunes. An extreme, but classic, example of its superripe style. | Bertoli Vineyard Leras Ranches | 86 | 30 | California | Russian River Valley | Sonoma | | | Woodenhead 2010 Bertoli Vineyard Leras Ranches Zinfandel (Russian River Valley) | Zinfandel | Woodenhead |
| 125640 | 125639 | Chile | After a gritty, fruity smelling opening, this Cabernet-led blend offers fresh, easy flavors of raspberry and plum that conclude simply, light and mellow. This is a fresh, fruity style of red wine with little oak that's more than appealing for the price. | Wetland Winemaker's Selection | 86 | 10 | Colchagua Valley | | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Yali 2011 Wetland Winemaker's Selection Cabernet Sauvignon-Carmenère (Colchagua Valley) | Cabernet Sauvignon-Carmenère | Yali |
