Montresor Capitel Della Crosara Valpolicella Ripasso 2011
Veneto, Italy$18.95
Agree with WA reviewers completely. This was a lovely wine for the price. I got leather, wood smoke and sweet cherry nose. Had depth of flavours dominated by sweet cherry fruit and well-integrated tannin. Good balance.

Mulderbosch Chenin Blanc 2012
Western Cape, South Africa$14.95
Great value. Lemon, honey, green apple and pear on the nose with an added touch of beeswax smoothness on the palate. Crisp citrus finish. The honey notes lasted in the background throughout.

Butterfield Station Pinot Noir 2018
California, Usa$20.48
A savoury PN with cherry cola and brown sugar on the nose. In addition, opens up to some nice berry and cherry notes. Nice for what it is trying to be and good value. Quite good with food.

Slightly off-dry attack with a nice depth of fruit flavours. Ripe apple, berry and citrus. Hard to resist the next sip. Good balance.

Abad Dom Bueno Mencía 2008, Do Bierzo
Galicia, Spain$16.95
Tasted July/14: Deep purple in colour. Had plum and other dark fruits nose along with a bitter almond. Flavour dominated by black pepper and bitter notes. Would agree that it does not have a lot of life left but has nice power and concentration.
