They create classic Burgundian-styled pinot noirs. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate gives this wine a 91. “Pale ruby-purple colored (with) amazingly pure notions of crushed cranberries, Bing cherries and red currants with touches of garrigue, tilled soil and bay leaves.” Medium to full-bodied. | 69 |
| Renacer Punto Final Malbec Classico, 2018, Argentina Strong floral tones of violet and rose combined with red fruits like black currant and raspberry. On the palate, the wine is smooth and silky with round tannins and a long finish. Pairs well with all types of meats and light pasta. | 22 |

| Turley Juvenile Zinfandel, 2018, California Turley Wine Cellars is known for making blockbuster — and pricey — zinfandels. We’re happy to offer this less expensive but still excellent wine. Termed “juvenile” because the wine is made of grapes from younger vines that have been replanted in several of their old vine sites. Consistently earns 90+ ratings. | 39 |
| Seghesio Sonoma Zinfandel, 2018, Sonoma, California Virginie Boone of Wine Enthusiast gives this zinfandel a 90 rating. “This is an impressive appellation wine, blended with smaller percentages of petite sirah, carignan, syrah and mixed reds… it is earthy, thick and brawny in leather, tobacco and coffee. Black baked fruit completes the picture…” | 34 |
| Dante Cabernet Sauvignon, 2017, California California Vintner Michael Pozzen consistently creates good wines at great value.

| Chateau de Fountenille Rouge Bordeaux, 2018, France The vines of Château de Fontenille have grown in their sunny, gravelly terroirs since the 13th century. Composed of mostly merlot, this wine is the perfect value to share with friends. Well structured and full bodied with the character of a classic red Bordeaux. | 30 |
| Blackbird Vineyard Arise Bordeaux Blend, 2016, California A proprietary blend of 55% merlot, 25% cabernet franc, 17% cabernet sauvignon and 3% petit verdot.
