Amayna 2010 Pinot Noir (Leyda Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $30
Neutral on the nose, with modest sweet berry aromas but not much more. Feels heavy and buttery, with baked berry flavors bolstered by loud oak that tastes buttery and creamy. Chunky, ripe, buttery and sweet on the finish.  — M.S.  (6/1/2012)

Amayna 2009 Chardonnay (Leyda Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $25
Forced oak and baked apple aromas work the nose on this challenged, wheaty Chardonnay. Voluminous in the mouth but cloying, with banana, toffee and pudding-like flavors. Heavy and oaky on the finish, which is all about butterscotch and resin covering up marginal fruit character.  — M.S.  (6/1/2012)

Amayna 2011 Sauvignon Blanc (Leyda Valley)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $20
A strange wine that’s not very aromatic beyond basic pear fruit and grass. Feels basic and tastes both green and oddly sweet, with a short, oily feeling finish that ends bitter. Tasted twice with similar findings.  — M.S.  (6/1/2012)
