Gladstone 2004 Pinot Gris (Wairarapa)

Price $20

Lemon-lime aromas would seem a bit monochromatic, but they’re enlivened by the addition of ripe apple and tropical fruit. It’s off-dry, weighty and creamy, with flavors that add spice and mineral nuances on the finish. Imported by Downunder Imports, LLS. — J.C. (2/1/2006)

Gladstone 2003 Auld Alliance Red (Wairarapa)

Price $20

This blend of 42% Cabernet Sauvignon, 33% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc boats ample cassis fruit and is soft and supple in the mouth. So what is holding it back? It thins out a bit on the finish, and some weedy and stable-y notes mark the bouquet. If you're turned off by ultraclean wines made with superripe fruit, give this one a spin. — J.C. (7/1/2006)
