Yacochuya 2005, Cafayate, Calchaquies Valley, Salta
Argentina$49.95
This wine was absolutely huge. One of the nicest, but most powerful wines I have had. I am not adequately able to describe or rate it really. Needs something big to go with it, like a grilled T-bone. Outstanding.
Trapiche Terroir Series Finca Ambrosia Single Vineyard Malbec 2012, Mendoza
Mendoza, Argentina$39.95
Pintas Character 2015, Doc Douro
Douro, Portugal$49.95
The nose showed promise. Gave it a one hour decant. Paired with a grilled strip loin. Taste was good, but not what I was hoping for. Not much going on for the price range. Very little in the way of finish. Overall a good wine at $20 but a disappointment at $50.

Veneto, Italy$44.95
Outstanding. Big leather, black plum, spice flavours. Had with bacon-wrapped fillet mignon. Loved it. Ready now but still has legs for years.

Bodegas Mas Alta Artigas 2008, Do Priorat

This was a fine wine. Big and complex. A bit beyond my ability to describe. Worth the price. Great with a grilled steak.

Tuscany, Italy$34.75
Best Chianti I have had - delightful with a nice red sauce with meat. Highly recommended.
