Château Lilian Ladouys 2010, Cru Bourgeois, Ac Saint Estèphe Bottle
Château Lilian Ladouys 2010, Cru Bourgeois, Ac Saint Estèphe
Bordeaux, France
$41.95

Musty, cheesy on the nose, and dry, tannic, dusty on the palate as a Bordeaux with this depth of colour should be. Elegant, austere, tasting of grape stems and hot breezes. Wonderful. One to stash for a future celebration.

Smoke and blackberries on the nose, juicy fruit, subtle oak, balanced structure, it's a lovely wine.

Cusumano Syrah 2013, Igt Sicilia Bottle
Cusumano Syrah 2013, Igt Sicilia
Sicily, Italy
$12.00

Pretty violet rim in the glass, dense, opaque robe, promising a flavourful wine that doesn't disappoint. Cherries for acidity and other red fruit for roundness in this finely structured wine. Grab several bottles while you can.

Round, soft, juicy, mouth filling Malbec. The extra point goes to value.

$22.95

Fruity colour and palate, fine tannins and surprisingly good, complex length. A bit hot and young.

Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc 2013, Marlborough, South Island Bottle
Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc 2013, Marlborough, South Island
Marlborough, New Zealand
$19.95

Puckering tropical mineral citrus palate, mineral grass topnotes, I think I understand why it's so popular. It's got everything you'd expect from this grape, wrapped in a southern hemisphere package. You can't go wrong bringing this bottle to a summer get-together.

Light, bright, red cherry and fresh unsweetened fruit palate. A refreshing aperitif with a slight chill.

Fairview Estates The Goatfather 2012 Bottle
Fairview Estates The Goatfather 2012
Western Cape, South Africa
$14.95

Smokey-oaky. Smoaky! nose, with charred lemon and with a promise of the fruit forward palate, which ends with dusty tannins and more charred citrus. Very good for a pig roast (well, that was my experience.)

Root: 1 Carmenère 2012 Bottle

Colchagua Valley, Chile

Great value. Dried herbs on the nose and on the palate with lots of nice fruit and a chalky, satiny finish. Very pleasant, not at all sweet.
