Nando 2000 Corvina (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)

  • Editors' Choice
  1. $42
Deep and eminently attractive, with huge aromas of raisin, fudge, prune and fruitcake. As broad and smooth goes, this is it. The feel is velvety, the depth coming in several layers. Elegant, forceful and a bit hedonistic.  — W.E.  (11/1/2005)

Nando 2000 Sangiovese (Chianti Classico)

  • Best Buy
  1. $11
Powerful and serious, with condensed aromas of cassis and spice. This wine features a racy, lithe feel that’s fostered by puckering acidity and lively but not overaggressive tannins. The mouth deals a mixed bag of sweet, snappy fruit, and fortunately very little in the way of intrusive characteristics.  — M.S.  (11/15/2003)

Nando 1997 Red (Amarone della Valpolicella Classico)

  1. $36
The nose on this wine was difficult at first, yielding sulfur and some barnyard. The palate, however, issues chocolate and cherries, while the finish is mildly bitter and thick. Two of our panelists thought it good, but much like a liquid confection. Our third reviewer gushed over its soft, supple feel and early drinkability.  — W.E.  (5/1/2003)

Nando 2002 Sangiovese (Chianti Classico)

  1. $12
Dried cherry, leather, tomato and spice make for a common, recognizable bouquet, while the palate offers fresh plum and raspberry with shadings of cedar and vanilla. Lighter tannins, decent acidity and good on the tongue. All in all, it does not push the envelope.  — W.E.  (4/1/2005)

Nando 1998 Nebbiolo (Barolo)

  1. $41
Tarry and pruny, with meaty, leathery accents, this is a big-boned, firmly structured wine. Turns spicy and shows its alcohol a little on the tannic finish. Drink now–2010.  — W.E.  (4/2/2004)

Nando 2004 Pinot Grigio (Isonzo del Friuli)

  1. $11
Honeyed apple and cream on the nose, with chunky, spiced apple and pear flavors. Full bodied, with plenty of flavor but not much zest. Imported by Fedway Imports.  — W.E.  (2/1/2006)

Nando 2001 Sangiovese (Chianti Classico)

  1. $11
Light, tight and leathery, a living version of a stripped down wine. The emphasis is squarely on red fruit, and that means it’s a bit sour. Nonetheless it’s innocuous and goes down easy.  — W.E.  (4/1/2005)

Nando 1998 Sangiovese (Chianti Classico)

  1. $11
The nose offers a full, interesting blend of Oriental spice, cherry, ginger and soy elements. The flavors turn to tart cherry, and brisk, slightly drying tannins show on the finish.  — W.E.  (4/1/2001)
