Stafford Hill Pinot Noir
Packed with flavor and youthful character, rollicking with black cherry and an electric bramble berry thread, it is surprisingly refined for such a value Pinot noir.
Van Duzer Pinot
Tart and lively, with fresh raspberry and cherry flavors that take on accents of green tea and dusky spices as this ends on a snappy note.
Greenwing Cabernet Sauvignon
Well-knit and straightforward, with currant, espresso and savory herb flavors that finish with medium-grained tannins.
Lobetia Rosé
Packed with flavor and youthful character, rollicking with black cherry and an electric bramble berry thread, it is surprisingly refined for such a value Pinot noir.
San Simeon Cabernet Sauvignon
Shows steeped plum, boysenberry and blackberry fruit flavors that roll through, coated with melted licorice and backed by a chocolaty note on the finish. This has just enough energy to support the frankly overt fruit.
Caves des Vignerons by Kermit Lynch Cotes du Rhone
A steeped plum note is filled out with mulling spice accents and a hint of vanilla, all offset by bitter mineral and anise smoke elements, plus black tea tannins.
G.D Vajra Rosabella Rosé
Rosabella reveals an amazing bouquet of flowers and fruits, with nuances of rose petals, grapefruits and white raspberries. The palate is tasty and mineral, with whiffles of peach, lemon oil, green apple energized by the freshness that is such a signature of Nebbiolo.
Domaine J Mourat Rosé
Clean, bright nose that speaks to the lesserknown mineral and floral side of Chardonnay with Anjou pear, wet stone, Parmesan rind and white flowers. Snappy clover and fresh, green fruit of honeydew and pear on the palate.

A harmonious, medium-bodied red, with creamy tannins enmeshed with flavors of crushed black cherry, Mediterranean scrub, smoke and white pepper as they ripple on the palate. Minerally, iron-laced finish.
Chateau Aney Haut-Medoc
Juicy and nicely compact, with a core of fig, cassis and blackberry fruit that still needs to stretch out, framed nicely by charcoal and roasted herb notes on the well-structured finish.
