Ovidio García Esencia Crianza 2009, Do Cigales
Spain$14.25
Still holding strong, killer wine for $15. Black fruit with great length, sturdy enough for food, pleasant enough on its own. Smooth and grippy, has legs.
A good wine deal but one off from the LCBO.

Zuccardi Series A Bonarda 2015, Santa Rosa
Mendoza, Argentina$16.95
Very jammy, very soft, unstructured, with a sweet finish. The flavours are quite honestly reminiscent of Concord.

Best's Bin No. 1 Shiraz 2014, Great Western, Victoria
Victoria, Australia$21.95
Took Michael's advice, it's at prime now. Less the bruiser after 6 years, its lost the nervous edge and is smooth, well mannered and highly satisfying

Cafaggio Cortaccio 2008, Igt Toscana
Tuscany, Italy$24.95
Not a crowd pleaser but wonderfully old school. Wish wine like this was still common. Heavy on the cedar but balanced, pleasantly intense with a complexity and length you don't get from fruit forward wines. Makes you stop and think. Drink now, probably at peak.

Over the hill, bitter and lacking charm at this late date.
