2007 Feudi di San Marzano Primitivo +120915 $13.95
Rated 3½ Stars
“Smooth and mellow on the palate, this reflects the warm and lengthy growing season of southern Italy and the Primitivo grape a.k.a. Zinfandel. Look for aromas and fleshy flavours of sweet ripe black plum, wildberry jam and mixed spice. It’s generously textured and the luscious sweet flavours carry through the medium-length finish. Nothing complicated here, just delicious sweet fruit flavour.” (Vic Harradine)

2006 Erath Pinot Noir Estate Selection Dundee Hills +104349 $39.95 (Limited Quantities)
Rated 91
“Polished, focused and expressive, with red berry, cherry and floral aromas and flavors that pick up hints of roasted beet and a meaty note as the finish persists against refined tannins. Beautifully made and distinctive. Drink now through 2016.”

2006 Pares Balta Electio Xarello +68577 $49.95 (Limited Quantities)
Rated 90
“The 2006 Electio (also 100% Xarel-lo) is considerably more pricy. It is influenced by some oak aging while offering up notes of mineral, peach, and poached pear. Smooth-textured and with excellent depth, this outstanding wine can accompany richer fish courses. Drink it over the next 2-3 years.”
