J.L. Chave Sélection Mon Coeur 2013

April 2020.....probably a little late drinking this but still tasty, just not that fresh. Was probably best about 1-2 years ago. Really like the wines from this winemaker. Have already drank 2 of the 2016 CdR and they are special. Will keep buying this product.

Tormaresca Trentangeli 2012, Doc Castel Del Monte
Puglia, Italy$19.95
2020/21
Had first one sometime in 2016/17, wasn't all that impressed. Thought. couple of years aging might help. Probably did, in 2020 was nice but still wasn't won over by it. Had with eggplant parmigiana but maybe required richer foods. Probably wouldn't buy again.

Feb 2022....don't remember how many I had bought but it was a few (maybe 3 or 4).....really enjoyed this wine, can remember saying to myself how this wine embodied so much of what I love in a wine. Chris really enjoyed it too. Remember serving at our Xmas bike group party. Good stuff!
Salentein Reserve Malbec 2014, Uco Valley, Mendoza
Mendoza, Argentina$17.95
July 2020....pretty sure this was a xmas gift from Majid.....it turned out to be a pleasing bottle of wine, smooth, tasty, creamy, not offensive in any way other than lacking a certain depth. It exceeded my expectations. Had with both chicken (satisfactory) and steak (great). (89)
