Emiliana Novas Petit Verdot 2011, Colchagua Valley
Chile$15.95
Nose of cassis and tastes of various dark fruit. Very nice. Tasted Nov-14, but this could have waited a few more years to fully come together. Likely a 90 in a year or two.

Villa Mt. Eden Grand Reserve Bien Nacido Chardonnay 2007, Santa Maria Valley
California, Usa$19.95
Over-the-top, banana and pineapple aroma, followed by flavours like a butterscotch Sunday. Have with something big and worthy, like pasta with wild mushroom/cream sauce, or wild mushroom/chicken risotto. Fantastic.

Ovidio García Esencia Crianza 2009, Do Cigales
Spain$14.25
Had two bottles, the second of which was corked unfortunately. This was a very solid wine for the price, even the corked one was decent! Very food friendly.
