Pirramimma Petit Verdot 2008, Mclaren Vale
South Australia, Australia$24.95
Beautiful, superripe Petit Verdot, and a continued success for this grower. Beautiful dark fruit, creme de cassis, spice box, and a real mouthful.. needs an hour in the open to really express itself, but it is well worth it. Long lingering finish. Nice value.

Tedeschi Amarone Della Valpolicella Classico 2006, Doc, Veneto
Veneto, Italy$42.95
Second tasting. Lovely olive, plum, tobacco leaf notes. Dark cherry underneath. It has smoothed out considerably since last fall, but still lots of grip. Tannins a bit more balanced this time. Delicious. Drink now.

Montebuena 2009, Doca Rioja
Rioja, Spain$15.95
This easy-drinking tempranillo is a wonderful value. Spicy and breezy, nice blackberry fruit, tobacco leaf notes. Good balance, tannins need a wee bit of time.. let it sit for half an hour and it softens up nicely. Buy a case, and drink it now.
