Concha Y Toro Don Melchor Cabernet Sauvignon 2008, Puento Alto
Maipo Valley, Chile$69.95
This wine developed a great deal while sitting open during the tasting. It has a long, earthy finish, and represents one of the best Chilean reds I have tasted.
Tasted blind at a Beefsteak & Burgundy club event - November 2014

Laurent Perrier Cuvée Brut Rosé Champagne, Ac, France
Champagne, France$119.95
Pleasing and light, this champagne showed notes of ripe strawberries an a hint of citrus. Very easy drinking as it is not as "yeasty" as other champagnes.

Stratus Red 2012, VQA Niagara On The Lake
Ontario, Canada$48.20
Hard to believe that such a good Bordeaux style blend can come from Ontario. A wine that impressed at a "'wine night" with friends. Will buy again from Stratus in the future.

Lovely, balanced Sauternes with notes of honey and dill along with a pleasant earthy note from the botrytis.

Versado Reserva Ancient Malbec 2011, Mendoza
Mendoza, Argentina$59.95
This is a serious Malbec. The fruit forwards elements expected with a Malbec are mingled with cedar, spice and black current flavours. A wine worth savouring, with a very smooth mouthfeel. A truly enjoyable bottle.
