Whether you’re tired from trekking through Patagonia or beat from a near attack by a pack of wild guanacos, this refreshing wine from the land of Chile is a winner. It lands somewhere between a Merlot and a Cabernet Sauvignon…fruit forward with a slight bite at the end. Perfect when kicking your feet up in Valparaiso while watching the sea wolves beg for scraps. — 3 months ago

Chinese New Year’s Eve...I felt compelled to fish up a bottle of Mou Tai for the occasion, but then I remember dipping into Mou Tai is comparable to drinking a bottle of hand sanitizer except it tastes worse. Quite the conundrum was setting in until I discovered a bottle of red with a cattle grazing square on the label...and guess what? It’s the Year of Beef. Boom. Purchase made, Malbec cracked and Ox wine consumed. Normally I give this one a solid 7.5, but since it is the Lunar Niu (Mandarin for Cow) Year’s Eve I bumped the rating up 0.8 because the number 8 is lucky in the Middle Kingdom. Gan Bei! — 4 years ago

Unlike the comedian, Dave, who shares the same name this wine is no joke. Smooth merlot with a hint of some@sorta tasty fruit, this wine is a steal. — 5 years ago

Holy sweet feathering floating light Jesus, never again. Tastes like an unholy combination of moldy socks and fermented durian. Adios. — 4 years ago

Had this delicious red on a hot summer’s day. It’s almost instinctual to make a Tinto de Verano when drinking a Spanish red in summer, but not with this sublime tempranillo...no, no, no, this one is for sipping and savoring all in its native form. Pair with some pungent cheese, maybe some cabrales, and some garlicky caracoles, then call the boss and tell him you won’t be in, tomorrow. — 5 years ago

The French are as true to their Burgundy as American politicians are to lying. Sublime, smooth and deep…even for a non-lover of pino this wine delivers. — 4 years ago

Wow. This is a keeper, for certain. I’m not much of a white wine drinker and normally reserve those occasions for whites from New Zealand, but this Alsace rare gem. Best white I’ve ever had. — 5 years ago

Graced by the hand of God, this holy land spirit is divine as ever. I suppose when some of the earliest vintages were made 100% from water and a wave of the hand, modern technology, irrigation and 2,000 years of trial & error have improved the product. This wine is simply heavenly. — 5 years ago
