Bouchard Pere & Fils Petit Chablis 2010

2012 version.

This would be overpriced at $10, however it is not $10. I have nothing nice to say about his wine. Avoid it.

Luigi Righetti Campolieti Ripasso Valpolicella Classico Superiore 2009, Doc

This was a good ripasso, better than the reviews sugget in my opinion. Try with a rack of lamb or veal parm.

Graffigna Centenario Malbec Reserve 2010, San Juan

nice with lamb burgers

Cathedral Cellar Cabernet Sauvignon 2009, Wo Western Cape

Not as polished as the previous vintage but still nice. Agree with smokey cassis, leathery, earthy. Good with a grilled steak or burger. 88/89

Oggi Primitivo 2011, Puglia Igt

Very nice, try with pasta in a spicy, meaty, red sauce, or most grilled meat.

Leone De Castris Maiana Salice Salentino 2009, Doc

This paired nicely with pasta with a spicey red sauce with sausages. Cherries, nutmeg spice. I would buy another.

Farnese Negroamaro 2011

Decent with a simple or spicy red sauce pasta dish. Cherries and plum, would buy again.

Santa Barbara Collection Chardonnay 2010, Santa Barbara

Graffigna Centenario Malbec Reserve 2011

I enjoyed this with a rib eye, but it would pair well with grilled lamb or burgers. Very enjoyable, 88/89

Jackson Triggs Reserve Meritage 2012, VQA Niagara Peninsula

worth the $11, went for second bottle. Quite nice.
