Klein Constantia Vin De Constance 2008 (500ml)
Western Cape, South Africa$65.25
Now among my favorite desert wines. The bouquet has precision , pine resin, dried orange peel and orchard fruit (nectarine / peach / apricot), herbs, spice ... Good acidity and not too sweet / syrupy. Great finish and balance, and has distinct SA character.

Stags' Leap Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2014
California, Usa$59.95
Very well made napa cab, excellent structure and length, cassis, dark fruit and peppery without over-the-top jam or oak. Very young, and very good..has "aiuthentic" cabernet character. This will be phenomenal once the savory flavors kick in with a couple of years on its side

Château Yvonne La Folie 2014, Saumur Champigny
Loire, France$27.30
Granted the bottle was not open for more than a few minutes, but i found this to be resting too firmly on the fruit profile (a good concentration that most would love). I for one enjoy a good dose of well-integrated greenness in my CF. That being said, this has great structure and balance, a quality wine.

Mas La Plana 2011
Penedès, Spain$65.00
Second tasting blew me away. When first tasted this it was very closed, tasted it this week after being opened for almost a day and it blew me away. Meshes the classic and modern Cabernet styles with distinct spanish character . It is extraced and ripe but far from flabby, the typical peppery/dark fruit new world cab profile blends in perfectly with its very savory side (think a hint of high quality tempranillo mixed in). It also has great acidity and structure. While this is sure to please both bordeaux and new world cab fans, it has enough acidity to satisfy those who prefer more light
