Stonestreet
2014 Alexander Valley
Cabernet Sauvignon
Awesome price! This Cabernet conveys vivid aromas and flavors of black cherry, satsuma plum and blood orange with bay leaf, fresh tobacco and cocoa nib adding further dimension. The palate offers a generous, beautifully extracted texture, all of which is kept in balance by the freshness of the fruit that one finds on the mountain, and an indelible stony signature — wrapped in ripe, chalky tannins that satisfy immediately and yet will easily reward a decade of cellar time.

Jean Sambardier
2015 VIEILLES VIGNES
Beaujolais Villages
LA CHAPELLE
A vibrant Beaujolais, bursting with ripe fruit from the warm vintage of 2015 and from the high quality, old vine grapes. It is concentrated and rich with fresh strawberry and slightly tart Montmorency cherry notes. Long with good acidity, it is a standout wine and comparable to many Grand Cru wines of the vintage. |

Sleight of Hand
2014 Columbia Valley
THE CONJURER
Red Wine
89 Wine Advocate
With a gorgeous nose and flavor profile of red and black cherries, herbal notes from the Cabernet Franc, as well as savory spices like nutmeg and cinnamon, this Washington State Bordeaux-style blend will age gracefully over the next decade, but like most of our wines will be delicious young. ~Mark's Top Pick~ |

Domaine les Pallieres
2015
Gigondas
Terrasse du Diable
92 Vinous
Domaine Les Pallières is undeniably one of the greatest, longest-running properties of the Southern Rhône—outside the village of Gigondas, woven into the foothills of the beautiful and brooding Dentelles de Montmirail. This "Gig" is juicy, with expansive black raspberry and cherry flavors.
Impressive, long, mineral-laden finish. |

Burgan's
2016 Rias Baixas
Albarino
Crisp and refreshing with a touch of minerality. The use of wood is definitively eschewed at the Bodega in order to preserve the natural lift and minerality of the grapes. As such, the wines are fermented and aged in stainless steel with light lees stirring.
The wine is blended by Eric Solomon, working in concert with the property, and is bottled in the spring after harvest.
Bring out the chilled shellfish! |

Grey Wolf
2015 Paso Robles
THE JACKAL
Zinfandel
Get this while you can Grey Wolf lovers!
This is very limited as ususal.
Big, juicy Paso Robles Zinfandel oozing flavors of raspberry, currant, and black cherry tones add depth to the wine followed by a dusty mineral finish.
Drink now of over the next 6-8 years. |

Cousino-Macul
2016 Valley de Maipo
CLASSIC
Chardonnay
Delightfully crisp and refreshing!
Founded in 1856, Cousino Macul is the only winery amongst those established during the nineteenth century that continues in the hands of the founding family, who controls 100% ownership of the company.
A SUPER BARGAIN from Chile! |

McPrice Myers
2014 Central Coast
RIGHT HAND MAN
Syrah
Attention McPrice Myers fans! The very approachable, very tasty Syrah from vineyards in both Paso Robles and Santa Barbara. Black cherry, cocoa powder, grilled herbs and fall spices are followed by a generous lingering soft finish. Don't miss it!

Frostwatch
2014 Bennett Valley
Merlot
90+ Wine Advocate
You loved last year's! They did it again with another fantastic effort! Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2014 Merlot is scented of red and black plums, dried Mediterranean herbs, vanilla and spice box.

Domaine des Gravennes
2015 Cotes du Rhone
Rouge
A great value Cotes du Rhone Rouge that is a must for French red wine lovers! This is exactly the type of red they feature by the glass in many Parisian cafes. Brilliant ruby color with powerful aromas of raspberry, tart cherry and black pepper. Balanced with just a touch of herb and spice. Not too heavy, not too light - this Cotes du Rhone is just right! |

Phantom
By Bogle
2014 California
Red Blend
After a ho-hum 2013 vintage, the Phantom is back on track with a super tasty Red Blend. Mostly Petite Sirah and Zinfandel, it is a spooktacular blend! Wild berries, black pepper are framed by the influence of oak aging with baking spices and a hint of toasty vanilla.

Jeff Runquist
2016 Clarksburg
SALMAN VINEYARD
Cabernet Franc
The aromas of the 2016 wine are classic for Cabernet Franc; cedar, graphite, dark cherry, cassis with a minty smoky herbaceousness. Only ten months in oak with almost a third of the barrels imparting little to no oak character has put the aroma on center stage. A mellow bouquet of toasted oak and hazelnut will appear with some air and time in the glass. On the palate flavors of sweet ripe black cherry, currants and mild green peppers come on a soft and elegantly textured wine that flows seamlessly to a smooth after-taste that makes it perfect for light fare. |
