Chateau De Gourgazaud 2009, Minervois
Languedoc, France$12.95
Wow, now I really understand what all the fuss is about. Very nice, smooth, full body wine based on Syrah and Mourvèdre. And what a bargain at that price. For those of you that are big fans of Australian Shiraz, this is a great intro to French-style Shiraz. Enjoy ! Tasted January 2012.

Very powerful wine which tasted great after an hour of decanting, but turned bitter after a couple of hours. Drink quickly! Tasted June 2013.

Christian Moueix Pomerol 2007, Ac
Bordeaux, France$29.95
Nice Bordeaux but certainly not worth $30 ($20 would be the maximum I would pay for this wine). I have to agree with the reviews hinting at very little oak and tannin, which made this wine really easy to drink. Tasted April 2015.

Rosemount Diamond Label Shiraz 2010, Southeastern Australia
Australia$14.95
Enjoyed it but needed a good hour of decanting to really deliver a nice tasting experience. Good choice wine when you want to play it safe at a party, but don't expect too much complexity. Tasted August 2012.
