A supple, accessible red, exuding cherry, strawberry and floral flavors, with a hint of tobacco. Elegant and balanced, with depth and a lingering, subtle finish. Drink now through 2020. Score - 92. (Bruce Sanderson, winespectator.com, Oct. 15, 2012)

Casa Castillo Monastrell 2011
Murcia, Spain$14.95
Dark ruby. Sexy, high-pitched aromas of raspberry, cherry, star anise and candied rose, with a touch of orange zest. Smells like a ripe pinot noir. Fleshy and seamless, offering sappy red fruit flavors and a bitter note of rhubarb. Subtle vanilla and licorice notes linger on the smooth, gently tannic finish. Lots of wine for the money. Score - 90. (Josh Raynolds, International Wine Cellar, Sept. 2012)

Quinta Das Camélias Reserva 2010, Doc Dão
Dão, Portugal$13.95
Rich, dark berry fruit, wood smoke and menthol herald a deep, concentrated gusher of richly flavoured dark, juicy cherry and tangy bramble berry coating the palate persisting through the rich, balanced aftertaste. There's structure, complexity and no shortage of flavour. Wisps of tannin suggest a two-hour aeration decant or a further six months before opening. It pairs well with grilled ribs, steak or a hearty stew. Special Designation: Value Wine. Score - 4 Stars (out of 5 (Wine of excellence)). (Vic Harradine, winecurrent.com, Aug. 28, 2013)
