Descendientes De J. Palacios Pétalos 2009, Do Bierzo
Galicia, Spain$25.00
grippy tannins but not drying for sure, earthy, cherry fruit, somewhat rioja-like but distinctively different, really long-lasting finish, nice overall and outstanding for the price! Szabo is right on in his rating
La Pieve Barolo 2007, Docg
Piedmont, Italy$34.95
classic barolo, puckering, dusty, graphite, spiced, not unlike aged rioja, lovely classic old world rouge
Quinta Da Ponte Pedrinha 2008, Doc Dão
Dão, Portugal$13.75
zesty is a good word, neither tannins nor acids are not overbearing, long lasting finish, very nice taste/value
Maison Roche De Bellene Cuvée Réserve Bourgogne 2010, Ac
Burgundy, France$19.95
classic pinot noir with tart red berries and light airy taste yet concentrated, a great value!!
Ktima Voyatzi 2007, Pgi Velvendo
Macedonia, Greece$16.20
reminds me of classic spanish or italian style, no hint of retsina
Marques De Caceres Rioja Crianza Red 2006
Spain$15.95
ruby red colour, smooth & velvety to the palate, gentle kiss on the tongue, cigar box, pine needles, wonderful complex finish, very good length, a very good Rioja and excellent value***1/2
