Sol De Andes Reserva Especial Syrah 2008, Colchagua Valley
Colchagua Valley, Chile$12.75
This is a very nice and enjoyable Syrah of 2008 vintage with an excellent price, under $18. Great value for money. Goes well with BBQ steak and rack of lamb, with a strong finish. I am going to buy a few more bottles and keep them in the cellar for enjoyment.

Domaine Bonnard Sancerre Rouge 2007, Ac
Loire, France$0.00
A light pinot noir from Loire, France that is made of red Sancerres. It is fruity and refreshing with tastes of berry and cherry. It goes well with BBQ pork and grilled lamb. It is a fine red Sancerre from Loire, light with fine tannins. I would buy it again.

Maison Champy Signature Pinot Noir Bourgogne 2006, Ac
Burgundy, France$23.95
A refreshing, medium-bodied pinot noir from Burgandy. Nicely priced for 2006 vintage. Fruity with taste of berries, oak and a bit of smoky taste with light tannins. A very enjoyable wine, suitable to go with BBQ pork or duck.

This is a very nice vintage 2007 Merlot from California. Goes well with lamb and BBQ steak. Great value for money for under $18. I am going to buy a few more bottles, store them in the cellar and enjoy them in the summer, with BBQ dinner.

Christian Moueix Merlot 2005, Bordeaux
Bordeaux, France$15.95
I am rather disappointed with this merlot from Bordeaux. i expected a finer wine but all I got was an uninspiring, mild-tasting, average red wine. I would not buy it again, despite the relatively low price, $14.95. For the same price, I could find better tasting wines.

Viña Alicia Paso De Piedra Cabernet Sauvignon 2008, Luján De Cuyo, Mendoza
Mendoza, Argentina$14.75
This is a 2008 vintage Cabernet Sauvignon from Mendoza, Argentina that has a hint of spices but rather strong acidity. A bit disappointing for a 2008 vintage. I really don't understand how Jay Miller came up with a score of 90.
