Firestone Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2010, Santa Ynez Valley
California, Usa$16.90
This was a fine Cali Cab-sav, certainly fruit-forward. Big cassis hit, this would be very popular to the masses. Loved it with my NY-strip loin. Recommened.

Very enjoyable pinot gris, bought two more.
Dec. 2014 update. Went from an 89 to a 90 for me. Wish I had tucked away a few more yet.

Falernia Reserva Syrah 2009, Elquí Valley
Chile$19.95
This was a dense thriller with blackberry aromas, great fruit taste, and lots of power. Would have lasted longer but ready to drink now with a steak.

Tilenus Envejecido En Roble 2007, Do Bierzo
Galicia, Spain$17.95
Dark cherries/black raspberries on the nose, followed by well integrated flavours finishing nicely with a hint of caramel. Wow this was great with lamb and wild mushroom stew. Wish I had bought more than one bottle.
