Torre Saracena Riserva Salice Salentino 2009
Puglia, Italy$13.75
Nov - 14
This was far better than I expected from the reviews. Very dry with integrated wood and cherry flavours and various herbs on the nose. Loved it with pasta in a red sauce with meat and wild mushrooms. I will cellar the second bottle for a bit longer yet, it has legs.
Columbia Crest Grand Estates Chardonnay 2015, Columbia Valley
Washington, Usa$17.95
I think the critics are a bit harsh on this one. Easy drinking, butterscotch and tropical fruit. A bit "commercial" maybe but we enjoyed it. Bought three more on sale.
Submission Cabernet Sauvignon 2016, California
California, Usa$19.95
This was over-cooked. Not a repeat purchase.
Columbia Crest Grand Estates Merlot 2010, Columbia Valley
Washington, Usa$17.95
I really liked this actually. Full-on blueberry and other dark fruit. Recommended with lamb meatloaf or roast beef. Pretty close to a 90 point wine for me.
Stone Dwellers Cabernet Sauvignon 2008, Strathbogie Ranges, Southwest
Australia$20.00
huge Aussie cab sauv, 2008 was superior.
