Perrin Réserve 2009, Ac Côtes Du Rhône
Rhône, France$15.95
Nice medium-bodied GSM. More acidity than a GSM from the New World (or really SGM as they come from Australia and others), but a lot more complexity too. Tasted April 2012.

Chateau Peyrou 2006, Cotes De Castillon, Bordeaux
Bordeaux, France$15.95
Was pleasantly surprised with this Merlot. Tasted fairly light and harsh upon opening but within an hour of decanting, it tasted full bodied and great and had very decent complexity and length at this price point. Tasted April 2012.

Castello Del Poggio Moscato
Piedmont, Italy$15.45
First time I tried a semi-sparkling wine and fully enjoyed it. Same type of experience as drinking a rose wine on a hot summer day, but with a lot more elegance. Pretty impressive for this low price. Tasted May 2013.

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.

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