Small Gully Formula Robert's Shiraz 2006, South Australia
South Australia, Australia$19.95
Oh my goodness. I LOVED THIS WINE! From the first sniff to the last drop, this was the winner for me at my recent Shiraz wine club tasting. Rich, full-bodied, yet mellow and amazing with chocolate. I'll definitely be picking up a few bottles to have around the house.

Ravenswood Vintners Blend Zinfandel 2009, California
California, Usa$17.95
This is my house wine... or is it? I'm not so sure anymore.
On the nose aromas of plum, blackberries and vanilla. At first taste, the fruit is overpowering, it was almost too sweet and too boozy for my palate. But, after a few more sips and some aerating it definitely softened. My first taste of this Zin was back in 2005. Either my palate has matured or the quality is declining... I'm banking on the former. Still, it's a good, overall, drinkable crowd-pleasing wine but it's not blowing my mind anymore, especially at $17.95 per bottle.
