Château Rahoul 2010, Ac Graves
Bordeaux, France$29.95
2010 was a great year... almost any wine is a safe bet. This one sure is!
Cave De Roquebrun La Grange Des Combes Saint Chinian Roquebrun 2010, Ac
Languedoc, France$18.95
Floral and dark fruity greetings are the preamble to this easy to sip GSM blend. I paired it with a juicy burger with roasted red peepers, asparagus, brie cheese and Dijon mustard... LOVELY!
Michel Picard Volnay 2010, Ac
Burgundy, France$34.25
Two trusted reviewers (Lawrason and Szabo) separated by 5 points on this one...
Well, I found this Pinot Noir very elegant, with seductive fruit, and a medium body that belies the varietal. I enjoyed everything about it. This time, I agree with the upper end of the assessment.
Baron De Ley Gran Reserva 2004, Doca Rioja
Rioja, Spain$29.95
Simply beautiful. Every bit as good as the 2001. Smooth elegance all the way!
Tawse Laundry Vineyard Cabernet Franc 2010, VQA Lincoln Lakeshore, Niagara Peninsula
Ontario, Canada$31.95
Volpaia Chianti Classico 2010
Tuscany, Italy$27.95
This is Chianti at its best, elegant, lovely colour, refined berries and spices notes... Paired beautifully with a lasagna.
Château Du Cèdre Cahors 2009
Southwest, France$21.95
WOW!
How different this Malbec is from its cousins in the new world.
But the most remarkable point here is that this gem of Bordeaux wine, from an extraordinary year, was priced just over $20.
Oh, if I had only bought more...
La Rioja Alta Viña Ardanza Reserva 2004, Doca Rioja
Rioja, Spain$39.95
Wow, double wow. The depth of this Rioja is surprising.
