Château La Tour-Martillac
Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend
A really great Cabernet with a lot of strong oak notes on the nose and a finish full of subtle old world spices that rarely come across in the new world Cabernets I've tried. — 10 years ago
Fess Parker
Ashley's Vineyard Chardonnay 2012
This is truly the greatest New World Chardonnay I've had that would rival a French Chassagne Montrachet. The strong pear, green apple, and lemon tartness is mellowed by a burst of honey and candied fruit that is so well-balanced with the acidity it is imminently drinkable either on its own or with a multitude of light foods. My new obsession among the white wines. — 10 years ago

Marcarini
La Serra Barolo Nebbiolo 2010
The herbal complexity of this Barolo is staggering. The mint on the nose follows through the finish, all of which carries notes of licorice, anise and more subtle herbal notes, as well as a tinge of minerality. Flavours of ripe cherries are pervasive. I adore this wine especially as its affordability belies the powerful experience that awaits! — 10 years ago
Bodegas El Nido
La Viña de Corteo Jumilla Syrah
Rich, full-bodied, with a balanced sweetness. Strong oak notes, spice, black cherries and currants. My experience with cabernets is limited but this bottle is an extremely powerful, and memorable impact to the palate. A rare richness; potent herbal and woody bass notes blended so well with the sweet berry high notes. This wine is essentially over my head and I love it. — 10 years ago

Montes: Napa Angel
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2008
This seems to be an underrated, under appreciated cab. Beautiful and heavy, creamy oak notes on the nose and finish that give an amazing woodsy character. Flavours of crisp, ripe cherries, a hint of black pepper, fresh leather, and wisps of a melange of mild herbs and spices that elude my ignorance. I find the price more than reasonable for the experience. Will definitely return to this one. — 10 years ago
