Pearce-predhomme Chenin Blanc Old Vine/wild Ferment 2017
Stellenbosch, South Africa$22.74
Review is private
Road 13 Vineyards 5th Element 2013, Okanagan Valley
British Columbia, Canada$49.10
Powerful deliciousness, bold character, full body, maybe a tad too much alcohol, but boy is it ever good, this is Bordeaux style done justice.
Viña Olabarri Gran Reserva 2010, Doca Rioja
Rioja, Spain$33.00
Lovely Gran Reserva. Stand bottle upright hours prior to opening. Decant (there is some sediment).Let rest at least an hour. Enjoy. There sure is a lot of yummy goodness in this wine.
Herdade Do Rocim Alicante Bouschet 2016, Alentejano
Portugal$30.65
Excellent medium to full body exponent of an Alentejo local varietal... all this from a land famous for its corks! It paired beautifully with a pepper, rosemary and thyme crusted chuck roast.
Ivaldi Dario Nizza 2015, Monferrato
Italy$31.78
Another pleasant surprise from the Wine Exchange selection. I usually don't go for Barbera, since I prefer a Barolo when looking for this kind of body and depth, a fact that partially explains why this one really surpassed my expectations!
Le Fraghe Rodòn Chiaretto 2017, Bardolino
Veneto, Italy$25.00
Delicious, clean, crispy... pairs beautifully with fish/scallops in a light acidic/citrus-based sauce.
Chill it and happy summer libations!
