Vina Mayor Reserva Ribera del Duero 2004 $23.99
This red shows focus and depth, with admirable purity to its black cherry, mineral, tobacco and tar notes. Offers an excellent balance of firm, well-integrated tannins and clean acidity. Not showy, but rock-solid. Drink now through 2016. Spectator, 93 pts
Vilanco Rioja Rosé 2010 $9.99
On the nose this offers cherry and raspberry notes, a hint of strawberry and rose petals. On the palate, this wine is dry, fresh and rewarding, with a balance of fruit, acidity, alcohol and with a slight hint of liquorice on the finish.
Mount Fishtail Sauvignon Blanc 2009 $9.99
A brilliant, pale straw green colour. Typical Marlborough Sauvignon aromas of grapefruit, box wood, pea-pods, tobacco & tomato leaf with an intriguing gooseberry yoghurt like complexity. The palate is fresh and full of vigour. Flavours of passionfruit, melon & grapefruit are balanced by limey acidity and good fruit sweetness.
Innocent Bystander Moscato 2009 $9.99
Lively strawberry, raspberry and tangerine on the nose, along with a strong floral quality. Sappy and gently sweet, with energetic red berry and citrus flavors and a gentle spicy note. Ridiculously easy to drink, with a long, red fruit-dominated finish and lingering floral character. Tanzer, 90 pts
