Hartford Court 2015 Sevens Bench Vineyard Pinot Noir(卡纳斯谷),售价70美元,评分93分。这款朴实无华却又深邃复杂的佳酿,在水果香中隐藏着蘑菇、白垩、煤烟和堆肥等独特元素。单宁浓郁,其口感沉稳厚重,让人仿佛置身森林之中,与亚洲香料和成熟红色水果共舞。
Halcyon 2016 品丽珠(加利福尼亚),售价30美元,评分92分。这款以卢瓦尔风格著称的佳酿,以樱桃、黑蔓越莓、碎胡椒粒、湿石以及微妙杜松叶为开篇,它们共同营造出一个新鲜而诱人的口感。而辛辣调味品则点缀其上,为深酸甜美好的红色水果增添了层次。

Gramercy 2015 The Third Man Grenache(哥伦比亚谷),售价36美元,评级92分,这是四份歌海娜中的三份,由15% 的西拉、中间加入了5% 的慕合怀特及13% 的维多合作组成。淡粉色的颜色下,是新鲜清新的草本植物、高调干草本植物矿物质石榴与樱桃交织出的芳醇气息。此外,还有熏肉类似的风味,使整体感觉既纯净又饱满,并以一种延长后的完美收尾结束故事。
Avennia 2015 Justine Red(哥伦比亚谷),售价38 美元,将55% 的歌海娜、二者各占32%,最后加入13% 西拉作为组成部分,从高地山心至奥尔德菲尔德各地采摘入货。浅色的颜泽下,一阵覆盆子、高调干草本植物矿物质石榴与樱桃交织出的芳醇气息徐徐升腾。此外,还有一种成熟风格反映出它来自于温暖年份;丰富多汁并且含有蓝紫色水果品味,而后以浓郁香料及甘露油结束,每个瞬间都如同画面一样完整细腻,不留遗憾。
Mark Ryan Winery's Long Haul Red Blend (Walla Walla Valley), $55, rated at a score of 91. This wine is primarily Merlot (84%), with the rest being Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and Malbec. The fruit flavors are drawn from Quintessence, Red Willow, Ciel du Cheval, Klipsun and Olsen vineyards.
