Beaucastel Coudoulet
Cotes du Rhone 2010 $26.99
(roughly one-third each mourvedre and grenache, with the
balance from the other permitted varieties): Vivid ruby. High-pitched aromas of
red fruits, rose, lavender and Asian spices. Juicy and focused on entry, then
deeper and broader across the mid-palate, displaying intense black raspberry
and cherry compote flavors. Shows impressive energy on the spicy finish, which
features a sexy floral quality. Stephen
Tanzer, 90-92 pts
Mohua Sauvignon Blanc
2012 $12.99
Exhibits
lifted aromatics of lime and citrus zest, melon and lemongrass. The palate has
pure intense flavours of passion fruit and white peach, ripe lemon and fresh
herbs.
La Vielle Ferme Rosé
2012 $12.99/1.5L
Beautiful pink and red tones mark the color. The nose is
floral with hints of aniseed and brown sugar that give way to aromas of white flowers,
cherries and fruit drops on the palate. Made
of Cinsault, Grenache, and Syrah using the saignée method (French for bleed
off).
Siesta Malbec 2009 $22.99
Red tone with violet reflections - clean and very bright. On
the nose there is an explosion of cherry fruit, fresh raspberry and plum.
Toasty scents and subtle hints of vanilla are indications of the wine's passage
through small oak barrique. The entry in the mouth is juicy, filling up the
sense of taste with fruits, honey, and a touch of caramel.
