Wynns Cabernet Sauvignon Coonawarra 2013
Australia$39.95
Gorgeous, lifted, layered nose. Iron/graphite minerality right off the bat, followed by beautiful cassis, dark cherry fruit, and just a touch of cigar box. Vibrant acidity, youthfully firm but very fine tannins, superbly balanced. The purity and ripeness of fruit is excellent. Complex and long. GV and sure to keep a decade. 17+

Cono Sur Single Vineyard Block No. 21 Viento Mar Pinot Noir 2012
San Antonio Valley, Chile$19.99
Really good pinot, completely agree with what's been said. So much mocha, earth, red and black fruit aromas. Juicy, silky, raspberry flavours. Considering that this is pinot noir and this good, fantastic value IMO.

Meyer Okanagan Valley Pinot Noir 2013

Cherry red. Beautiful redcurrant, flowers, spice, earth, and sandalwood on the nose. Juicy, light, and quite complex. A touch of bitterness detracts but very fine overall. 17/20

Blue Mountain Pinot Blanc 2014, Okanagan Valley
British Columbia, Canada$17.90
This wine is absolutely rocking. It showcased so much confidence in icts restrained, Old World, site-driven style of winemaking and it absolutely succeeded at it. Incredible balance as well entre mineral, fruit, freshness, acid, astringency, etc. It got better on the second day open, and I think it'll Develop wonderfully over the next 4-5 years.

Finca Los Primos Malbec 2014, San Rafael
Mendoza, Argentina$11.59
Inviting nose of ripe dark fruit, with lots of floral note, some dried green herbs, and dark chocolate. Good structure, depth, and balance; it's delicious and fantastic value.

Graham's Late Bottled Vintage Port 2009, Douro Valley
Portugal$17.95
A nose of blueberry, prune, and blackberry jam with some medicinal, caramel, and liquorice overtones. Decently balanced palate with some spice and dark fruit with a significant amount of alcoholic heat. Quite a bit like grapey liquefied liquorice, not really my thing

Santa Carolina Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva 2014, Colchagua Valley
Colchagua Valley, Chile$13.95
The wine opens with a fruit-forward nose with blackberry and red cherries in bolstered by large cedar-y spice and oak Rather significant herbaceousness. The Somewhat rough and rustic on the palate continuous in nature, with Rather dusty tannins, earthy flavors, and thin red fruit. Acidity is fine and the wine: has a definite freshness goal all in all a simple and thin wine Rather That absolutely requires food to shine

Bartier Bros. Semillon Cerqueira Vineyard 2014, BC VQA Okanagan Valley
British Columbia, Canada$20.00
Fascinating savory perfume of lemongrass, medicinal herbs, flowers, river stone minerality, peach fuzz, duck and Asian pear. Singular, lively, long and lean and but a little astringent, shoulds flesh out with age.
