Oakville Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 +674952 $37.95

Rated 90

“The sleeper 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon offers impressive notes of creme de cassis, camphor, cedar, and subtle roasted herbs. Deep, full-bodied, and rich with velvety tannin and an opulent personality, this beautiful 2006 can be drunk now or cellared for 12-15 years. Moreover, it’s a relative bargain in the luxury priced Napa sweepstakes.

Some big time sleepers of the vintage are included in Oakville Ranch Vineyards’ portfolio. The winery deserves serious attention from consumers.”


The Wine Advocate, #186 December 2009



John Howard Megalomaniac Narcissist Riesling 2009 +67587 $17.95

Rated Alanna’s Pick

“Backwards printing on the label encourages customers to hold the bottle up to a mirror, revealing the name of the wine and allowing them to enjoy their own reflection. This fun idea makes the consumer the de facto face of the wine while echoing Riesling’s remarkable ability to faithfully express, or mirror, the distinctive qualities of the soils in which it is grown. You could say perfect soil, like Edra’s Vineyard, means perfect wine. To put your own face on a wine you’d better be very good (wink)… VINTAGES knows you are.”

Rocca di Castagnoli Chianti Classico 2007 +222810 $19.95

Rated 90

“The 2007 Chianti Classico is an impeccable, elegant wine graced with fine, silky tannins that frame floral red berries, spices and licorice. This soft, inviting Chianti Classico impresses for its superb balance and class. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2015.”

The Wine Advocate, #190 August 2010



Cesari Bardolino Chiaretto Classico 2010 +224949 $12.95

“Sweet, spicy strawberry nose. Palate is rich with strawberry puree, some elegant minerality and a touch of sweetness. Pleasant, plump and fleshy with wide appeal. Candied rhubarb and plumy finish of good length..”
