Goru El Blanco 2017, Do Jumilla
Murcia, Spain$13.95
Nothing if not unusual. Quite perfumed and oily, and quite dry. Very assertive and certainly makes an interesting and worthwhile detour. Flowers are us! The low price is a bonus.

Faustino V Tempranillo Rosado 2014, Doca Rioja
Rioja, Spain$12.00
Wish I had bought more of these at the 7.45 sale price. A slight bitterness and I slight spritziness. I don't detect the sweetness noted by others. Quite full bodied.

Hardys Stamp Series Chardonnay Semillon 2018, Southeastern Australia
Australia$9.75
Seems round and full to start but dies quickly. No length. A bit lifeless (low acidity?), but not unpleasant and decent value.

Château Haut Peyraud 2010, Ac Blaye Côtes De Bordeaux
Bordeaux, France$16.95
Musty graphite with a backbone of bright acidity. Quite a lovely wine. A good call by David Lawrason.

Colomba Bianca Resilience Insolia 2018, Doc Sicilia
Sicily, Italy$16.95
Fairly intense, medium-bodied wine with mineral undertone. Somewhat austere and serious. Interesting for sure.

De Angelis Offida Pecorino 2018, Docg
Marche, Italy$13.95
Fantastic value for $14. Michael Godel's notes hit this on the nail. Tastes spritzy but isn't, against a backdrop of limestone. Very fresh.

Ontario, Canada$17.95
Nice. Very subdued with some herbal notes, but still smooth and rounded. Would buy again for sure.

Marques D La Concordia Viña Alarde Reserva 2013, Doca Rioja
Rioja, Spain$17.95
Very old school, complex nose. Pronounced sandlewood aromas and quite smooth. But a bit unbalanced, a tad too much acidity and it seems a bit thin in the middle. Not a fruit forward wine.
