Marco De Bartoli Vignaverde 2014
Sicily, Italy$26.90
Elegant and light wine that has a lot going on. Crisp and clean, salinity, white fruit and citrus rind come together in somewhat thought provoking fashion. Gets better as you drink it.

Domaine Lafage Cuvée Centenaire 2014, Ac Côtes Du Roussillon
Languedoc, France$16.75
Though wines dominated by perfume and floral extract are generally not my cup of tea, this shows fine balance, structure and hosts a lot of white fruit and melon notes that make it a win in my book.

Domaine Drouhin Oregon Pinot Noir 2014, Dundee Hills
Oregon, Usa$51.95
Slightly sweet and jammy, fruityand complex. Doesnt do the best job holding its alcohol. Perhaps good for its category, but overpriced (like many pinot's) in my opinion

Purple Angel Carmenère 2013
Chile$62.95
Dark purple, inky, lifted, but surprisingly not jammy. Intense aromas and floavors of currant, dark fresh fruit, and minty/peppery. Fruit and vegetables come together in harmony, but the alcohol makes an unwelcome appearance on the finish.

La Tercera Reserva 2010, Doca Rioja
Rioja, Spain$22.25
Tightly wound but good structure and balance. Not concentrated or jammy but quite old school approach. However fruit is dominating now. Perhaps the tabacco/leather savoury flavors need time to develop alongside the not-so-ripe plum and sour cherry flavors. Good stuff

Domaine De La Borde Arbois Pupillin Côte De Caillot 2014
Jura, France$40.25
Typically creamy/lactic jura style, showing ripe apple, vibrant acidity and good minerality. Subtly oxidized but not evoking bitterness or any austere character. This is elegant, supple and youthful... beautiful chardonnay.

La Vite Lucente 2014, Igt Toscana
Tuscany, Italy$34.95
Ultra-modern merlot blend from tuscany, loads of oak, dry tannin. Lacks purity of fruit, sense of place and individuality / character, Perhaps too young, Not bad Structurally, its profile is run of the mill.

Some red fruit, hints of orange peel, spice...quite a complex bouquet. On the palate beahves somewhat like trousseau/ beaujolais. Light and high acid.
