J.L. Chave Crozes Hermitage Rouge Silène 2014
Rhône, France$31.00
2020 to be safe (which is same as 2013) so maybe can go to 2021 at latest .
February 2021....had with chicken chilli, worked just fine. Lovely wine, lots of flavour and depth, structure....class act. I never seem to be disappointed by JL Chave, all their wines are highly drinkable. Makes me a fan of French wine when many do not.

Sottimano Langhe Nebbiolo 2013, Doc
Piedmont, Italy$29.95
(3)
after 2020 (decant 1-2 hours)
by 22/23 seems to be it!
Nebbiolo food pairings: veal medallions, roasted pork loin, prime rib, coq au vin, grilled tuna with a pepper crust.
.....mouthwatering with evident tannins that make this wine the perfect pairing to many traditional Italian pasta dishes.
Would also be exceptional with your next steak.
Can be enjoyed now, but will do really well if it rest for 5-7 years (2021-23)
Mar 2021...yummy, delicate, had with Med. Chicken. Really enjoyed.
Mar 2021...gifted to Ann G on her birthday

Jan 2022....really good, smooth and delicious. Didn't feel the bite of 15.5% while drinking but did after was done (and only had one glass!). Highly drinkable as I had it with pizza and chicken nuggets, no problem. Will have with beef chilli tomorrow, should be perfect. Nice find. (92)

Rioja, Spain$34.95

2019+2021+2023 (Last one 2023-2025, maybe with Bryce&Brenda).....per MG drink 2021-2028
A naturally spicy, ripe finish confirms its excellence; drink 2018–2026. (WE)
Oct 2020...nice wine for sure, didn't wow me the way I hoped it might.....give it another 2 years (late 2022). Had with leftover roasted chicken.
March 2021....guess I should have read my previous note before deciding on drinking....in any case I am enjoying this bottle, had with Mediterranean Chicken, yummy. Last one minimum 2023!
January 2024...had with Norah, paired with jerk chicken. Enjoyed it once again.
