Miraval Rose 2013
$23.99
As
the French would say 'il y a du vin' – meaning that there is a sense of power
alongside the elegance, a structure and a fresh acidity that gives the wine
persistency, with a grip of minerality that gives a delicious mouthwatering
finish. Decanter Magazine, 91 pts
Pine Ridge Chenin Blanc/Viognier 2013 $12.99
Opens with fresh lemon, juicy
honeydew melon, pomelo and sweet mango, complemented by soft orange blossom and
carnation floral notes. The palate is crisp and mouth-watering, with yellow
pear and ruby grapefruit flavors that are balanced by hints of sweet tangerine
and white tea. Winemaker’s Notes
Borgo Scopeto Chianti Classico 2010 $12.99
This is vibrant and
energetic, with a base of fine-grained tannins lifting the cherry, currant,
rhubarb and tobacco flavors. Taut and almost racy on the long finish. Wine Spectator, 92 pts
Ancient Peaks Cabernet Sauvignon 2011 $16.99
This wine opens with generous
aromas of black fruit, toasty oak, caramel and cedar. The palate is elegantly
layered with flavors of plum, cherry and blackberry, followed by trailing notes
of black olive and cocoa. Fine tannins linger on a juicy, structured finish.
