Alfasi 2000 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon (Maule Valley)
- Best Buy
- $10
Fairly supple, with moderate body, the wine is framed in soft tannins. Black cherry, blackberry, cassis, smoke, tar and licorice flavors come to mind, ending in a finish of moderate length. Kosher

Alfasi 1999 Sauvignon Blanc (Maule Valley)
- Best Buy
- $8
This light and lemony wine would make a good afternoon sipper, or a tasty match for grilled fish. The spicy, citrus fruit shows good intensity midpalate. Finishes clean, with moderate length and herb notes.

Alfasi 1998 Merlot (Maule Valley)
- Best Buy
- $7
The seemingly late-picked, almost overripe fruit veers from plum and blackberry aromas and flavors into sweet rhubarb and tomato preserves. This Chilean Merlot is flavorful, with light to medium body and a dry finish.

Alfasi 1999 Chardonnay (Maule Valley)
- Best Buy
- $8
This Chilean wine displays two personalities. The nose offers aromas of ripe peaches and cream, with honey and buttered-toast accents. On the tongue it turns crisp and tart, with citrus and green-apple flavors and fairly sharp acidity. It finishes short and bright.

Alfasi 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon (Maule Valley)
- $8
It’s nice to see an ever-increasing number of serviceable kosher wines like this one being made available to consumers from around the world. That said, this one isn’t much more than adequate. There’s a modest amount of cassis fruit dressed up with earthy chocolate and vaguely minty aromas, but it lacks depth. Still, it’s better than the kosher stuff I remember…

Alfasi 1998 Flora Semi Dry Red (Maule Valley)
- $10
There’s a tanginess to the red cherry-berry fruit aromas and flavors; oaky heat makes the flavors less approachable. Cranberry, plum and oak finish it up.

Alfasi 2001 Reserve Merlot (Maule Valley)
- $10
Strong tobacco and olive scents emerge from the glass, followed by modest cherry flavors with an intensely herbaceous edge. Lean. Imported by Royal Wine Corporation.
