Ringbolt Cabernet Sauvignon 2012, Margaret River
Western Australia, Australia$21.95
Slightly hot, dried herb nose with a few strands of tobacco, with cedar pleasantly on the tongue and sourness on the length, yet a nice chalky mineral finish reminiscent of the west bank. Did I mention complex,? Nice job.

Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2013, Marlborough, South Island
Marlborough, New Zealand$18.95
Green, grassy, sassy on the nose; greener on the palate. Like biting into a juicy green pepper!

Montebuena Cuvée K P F 2012, Doca Rioja
Rioja, Spain$15.95
Fruit forward on the palate with taut, nervy heart-of-grape and stem mixed with cherries. Somewhat flat nose, so the vibrant acidity came as a pleasant surprise, especially in a 100% tempranillo--but 4 months in oak barrels does not do this grape justice. Nice length nonetheless, and good value.

Montes Reserva Cabernet Sauvignon 2013, Colchagua Valley
Chile$12.95
Herbal minty cinnamon nose, cocoa midpalate on stand-up tannins with balanced acidity. Oaky undertones without the cloying character often found with New World oak barreling in this price range. Has just the right spice to make a very good accompaniment to grilled ribeye.

Greenand white pepper aromas, woodsy palate with balanced acidity. Cherries and juicy blackberry til the dusty tannin finish. Very nice for the price.

South Australia, Australia$19.95
Smooth, bright, delicious. Green, gravelly and ripe nose; it's all delivered, and more, on the palate. Good value.

Majella The Musician Cabernet/Shiraz 2013, Coonawarra
South Australia, Australia$17.95
Berries and herbs with a surprising jolt of acidity at the end. Perfect for a rare rib roast with rosemary and garlic, goal I would keep looking if what you're wanting is a sipping wine.
