Santa Rita Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon 2016
Maipo Valley, Chile$14.70
gift from Ken & Odette (Dec 2017)
...2018 BBQ
July 2019...wasn't expecting too much here so it surprised me. Not reminiscent of a CS but was pleasant though soft and not sweet thankfully. Even went well with bbq salmon one night. As long as not looking for richness and complexity was a good simple pour.

July 2020....wasn't expecting much, in fact regretted buying 3 before I even tried it HOWEVER I quite enjoyed it especially after plenty of aeration (2 hours), not top notch but juicy & succulent, a nice find! Had with both chicken and steak, worked ok with chicken surprisingly.

Michele Chiarlo Le Orme 16 Months Barbera D'asti 2016, Docg
Piedmont, Italy$15.95
2019 + gift (or drink in 2021)
(feel like I drank one already, so enjoyed it I bought 2 more???) Maybe?
December 2020....pretty decent for the money. Had with BLT. Light to medium bodied, had some cherry zest to it. Would likely tire of it quickly I suspect. Enjoyable and good value but not a wine of lasting memories.
