| 25711 | 25710 | US | Concentrated black fruit flavors are pleasant but obscured by generous oak treatment and slightly confectionery flavors of cherry vanilla and mocha chocolate. Hints of tree bark and green, vinous flavors peep through cream and vanilla notes on the midpalate. | Field Stone Old Stones and Old Vines | 84 | 30 | New York | New York | New York Other | Anna Lee C.

| 25712 | 25711 | US | The weaknesses of this wine are excessively evident alcohol and extracted berry fruit that make it taste jammy and sweet. But it's a good example of the ultraripe Paso style, with supporting acidity and tannins, and a high drinkability factor. | | 84 | 17 | California | Paso Robles | Central Coast | | | Ancient Peaks 2009 Zinfandel (Paso Robles) | Zinfandel | Ancient Peaks |
| 25713 | 25712 | Italy | Banfi's informal Chianti opens with sweet fruit and spice followed by sour cherry and bramble. Pair this no-fuss Italian red with lasagna or ravioli with cheese. | | 84 | 11 | Tuscany | Chianti Superiore | | | | Banfi 2009 Chianti Superiore | Sangiovese | Banfi |
| 25714 | 25713 | US | A nice white wine to drink on a warm afternoon, at a picnic. It's definitely on the sweet side, but nice and crisp, with orange and pineapple flavors. | | 84 | 10 | California | California | California Other | | | Big House 2010 White (California) | White Blend | Big House |
| 25715 | 25714 | France | Lean, with severe tannins and fruit, dark and firm and laden with acidity. It is hard to take much pleasure from this austere wine. | | 84 | | Bordeaux | Pomerol | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Château la Bassonnerie 2008 Pomerol | Bordeaux-style Red Blend | Château la Bassonnerie |
| 25716 | 25715 | Chile | Smells like generic red fruits with a pinch of green herbs. Feels choppy and astringent, with green-leaning flavors of plum and raspberry. Zesty on the finish but tastes herbal and underdeveloped. | Made with Organic Grapes | 84 | 15 | Maule Valley | | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Chilcas 2010 Made with Organic Grapes Cabernet Sauvignon-Malbec (Maule Valley) | Cabernet Sauvignon-Malbec | Chilcas |
| 25717 | 25716 | US | Considered as a dessert wine, this Moscato is O.K. It has orange and vanilla pastry flavors, brightened by acidity. Don't even think about drinking it as a dry table wine, because it's very sweet. | Willow Springs | 84 | 7 | California | California | California Other | | | CK Mondavi 2010 Willow Springs Moscato (California) | Moscato | CK Mondavi |
| 25718 | 25717 | Australia | A decent Chardonnay for the price, with pineapple fruit and hints of butter and cream. It's medium in body, with a slightly custardy mouthfeel and a short finish.

| 25721 | 25720 | Portugal | A soft and fruity wine, with raspberry and caramel flavors.

| 25723 | 25722 | Spain | This may appeal more to some than others because barrel-fermented Viura is a tough row. Smells a lot like creamed corn or wheat, with apple cider on the side. It's barely acidic enough, thus it's soft in feel and tastes of butterscotch, melon and flabby apple. Seemingly less interesting than in the past. | Fermentado en Barrica | 84 | 15 | Northern Spain | Rioja | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Finca Nueva 2010 Fermentado en Barrica Viura (Rioja) | Viura | Finca Nueva |
| 25724 | 25723 | US | This is a simple Pinot Noir, with berry and cherry flavors. It's on the heavy, soft side.

| 25725 | 25724 | Spain | Mild salinic aromas bring lime and lychee. Feels standard and smooth enough, with sweet white fruit flavors that suggest peach. As a semi-dry, it always feels and tastes sugary. | Carta Nevada Semi Dry | 84 | 9 | Catalonia | Cava | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Freixenet NV Carta Nevada Semi Dry Sparkling (Cava) | Sparkling Blend | Freixenet |
| 25726 | 25725 | Portugal | Crisp and fresh, with simple red fruits and a warm reminiscence of summer. Drink soon, it will go well with chicken. | | 84 | | Alentejo | | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Adega Cooperativa de Borba 2010 Rosé (Alentejo) | Rosé | Adega Cooperativa de Borba |
| 25727 | 25726 | Spain | Smells sweet as cantaloupe, with perfume tossed in. Shows acidity and a smooth bubble wave on the palate along with flavors of watermelon, lychee and cantaloupe.

Garcia Carrion NV Opera Prima Pink Moscato Sparkling (Vino de la Tierra de Castilla) | Sparkling Blend | J. Garcia Carrion |
| 25728 | 25727 | France | Low intensity fruit and floral aromas are hidden in the bouquet, with minor suggestions of strawberry hull and crushed carnation to be found only upon deep nosing. Light and easy in the mouth with a short but clean finish. | Grenache | 84 | 11 | Languedoc-Roussillon | Pays d'Oc | | Lauren Buzzeo | @laurbuzz | Les Jamelles 2010 Grenache Rosé (Pays d'Oc) | Rosé | Les Jamelles |
| 25729 | 25728 | US | Mocha chocolate and cherry pie scents linger on the palate of this plush, easy-drinking Cab Franc.

Iijima | | Palaia Vineyards 2008 Cabernet Franc (New York) | Cabernet Franc | Palaia Vineyards |
| 25730 | 25729 | Chile | Sulfuric at first, then light and leafy on the nose. Smells like a cool-climate wine with jumpy, fresh, tight flavors of raspberry and cherry accented by mild woodspice. Mixes overt sweet and oaky flavors with a lean body. | Clava Coastal Reserve | 84 | 13 | Casablanca Valley | | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Quintay 2010 Clava Coastal Reserve Pinot Noir (Casablanca Valley) | Pinot Noir | Quintay |
| 25731 | 25730 | Portugal | A curious wine that has little connection with Pinot Noir tastes. It has red fruits, hints of cherry, but for the rest is an attractive red wine and no more. | Quinta de Cidrô | 84 | 35 | Duriense | | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Real Companhia Velha 2008 Quinta de Cidrô Pinot Noir (Duriense) | Pinot Noir | Real Companhia Velha |
| 25732 | 25731 | Italy | This Tuscan Merlot shows unripe aromas of green herb and olive backed by a raw, sharp feel.

| 25733 | 25732 | France | Peach aromas open a smooth wine. It has acidity certainly but also some good melon and pear ripeness.

| 25734 | 25733 | France | Soft, fruity wine, very smooth, its pear and green plum flavors integrated into acidity along with a light touch of sweetness.

| 25735 | 25734 | US | A bit on the thin, simple side, but packs plenty of flavor in the form of ripe raspberries, cherries, milk chocolate and cola. The grapes come from both the Central Valley and the Arroyo Seco appellation. | | 84 | 14 | California | California | California Other | | | Echelon 2010 Pinot Noir (California) | Pinot Noir | Echelon |
| 25736 | 25735 | US | Shows crisp acidity and sweet, jammy orange, pineapple and peach flavors that have a sugary finish.

| 25737 | 25736 | Australia | This blend of Semillon, Traminer, Shiraz and Frontignac (a form of Muscat) features orange, berry and spice aromas and sweet flavors not unlike berry sherbet, with just a squeeze of citrus on the finish. Soft and frothy; drink now. | Bubbles Sparkling Rosé Wine | 84 | 10 | Australia Other | South Eastern Australia | | Joe Czerwinski | @JoeCz | Yellow Tail NV Bubbles Sparkling Rosé Wine Sparkling (South Eastern Australia) | Sparkling Blend | Yellow Tail |
| 25738 | 25737 | US | Simple and sweet, showing cherry pie filling and cola flavors. The mouthfeel is soft, lacking vitality. An okay Pinot, but nothing special. | | 84 | 20 | California | Napa Valley | Napa | | | Ca' Momi 2009 Pinot Noir (Napa Valley) | Pinot Noir | Ca' Momi |
| 25739 | 25738 | Austria | A restrained but lusciously ripe pear scent emanates from the deep, rounded and nutty core, supported by acidic verve. | | 91 | 25 | Thermenregion | | | Anne Krebiehl MW | @AnneInVino | Stift Klosterneuburg 2013 Zierfandler-Rotgipfler (Thermenregion) | Zierfandler-Rotgipfler | Stift Klosterneuburg |
| 25740 | 25739 | Austria | The archetypal pear flavors of Grüner Veltliner come to the fore: fresh, flavorsome and crunchy green Conference pear in this case, with zesty acidity in a linear, refreshing and zesty frame.
