2006 Coriole Vineyards Redstone Shiraz +59915 $17.95

Rated 90/#3 on Top 10 Smart Buy List

“Moderate intensity on the nose, but the palate is packed with savoury, earthy and spicy flavours to balance the super ripe black fruit notes. This has decent structure and complexity for the money, ensuring at least mid-term ageing potential. Good stuff.”

Wine Access, First In Line, September 2009
2008 Chateau Ste. Michelle Columbia Valley Chardonnay +232439 $17.95

“My goal with the Columbia Valley Chardonnay is to make it a pleasurable, food-friendly Chardonnay. This is a fresh, soft style of Chardonnay with bright sweet citrus fruit character and subtle spice and oak nuances. We blend Chardonnay grapes from vineyards all over Washington’s Columbia Valley to make this a complex, interesting wine. The sur lie aging gives it an appealing softness.”

Bob Bertheau, Head Winemaker

2007 Stonehedge Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon +25122 $24.95

Rated 4 Stars

“Smoothly textured and bursting with flavour, aromas of minty cherry and exotic spice roll of this medium to full-bodied red. Well-sculpted flavours—ripe mulberry, kirsch liqueur and black currant—bathe the palate. The long succulent finish is well balanced and layers on nuances of espresso roast. Pair with a mess of smoked barbecued back ribs smothered in spicy sauce. (Vic Harradine) “
