Señorío De P. Peciña Crianza 2011, Doca Rioja
Rioja, Spain$21.95
Classic Rioja, but with a velvety smoothness. Spicy cherries, tobacco, smoke with hints of earthy barnyard. For a Crianza, this is incredibly impressive. Highly Highly recommended.

Mont Tauch Le Tauch Fitou 2010
Languedoc, France$19.95
I really enjoyed the suave texture of this Syrah/Carignan/Grenache blend. Balance and structure hold up throughout. The flavours need more time to develop, as it's little shy on fruit at the moment. But superb quality for the price.

Montecillo Rioja Gran Reserva 2001, Doca
Spain$31.95
Personally, I don't find a huge difference from the Reserva (on a good vintage year). I love the classic Rioja qualities of Montecillo...Spiced cherries, barn yard, herbs, cedar and smoke.

Palazzo Maffei Ripasso Valpolicella Superiore 2011, Doc
Veneto, Italy$18.95
92 % of love in this bottle. A real Iodine body makes this drink like cough syrup. Packed with herbs and medicinal qualities. Smells like tree bark and tastes like a chocholate cake. Who wouldn't want this at their party...

Vineland Estates Elevation St. Urban Riesling 2011, VQA Niagara Escarpment, Niagara Peninsula
Ontario, Canada$19.95
A gorgeous perfumed nose of orange blossom, peaches, lemon/lime, white flowers & white musk. It's off dry adding a nice peachy-sweetness to the mix, but ample acid to balance this delicious beauty. It’s a luxurious wine that really charms & relaxes you.

Cecchi Vino Nobile Di Montepulciano 2011
Tuscany, Italy$21.95
Home run wine for the price! Woodsmoke, ripe cherries with hints of ash and tomato leaf. Super refined tannins and soft acids provide a lushness on the palate and on the finish. Old world wine nurds will rejoice. ...especially at this price!

Avondale Jonty's Ducks Pekin White 2015, Wo Paarl
Paarl, South Africa$16.95
Pungent nose...offering ripe peaches and pears with a fresh dose of sea salt air. The palate starts with a kiss of sweetness but quickly transitions back to a fresh ocean saltiness. I'm salivating for oysters...what a perfect little seafood gem.
