Here Is Our Line Up:

Tarima! Wine Advocate 91 "Another terrific value is the Tarima (Nonorganic) from Alicante and another 100% Mourvèdre cuvée, aged six months in French oak. This wine has terrific aromatics, broad, expansive flavors, about 15% natural alcohol and an expansive, heady mouthfeel. This is rich, dense and Provençal in its flavor components. Totally aged in used oak and stainless steel, the wine is a real sleeper and big-time winner in the values sweepstakes. Drink it over the next several years." Robert M. Parker Jr.

"The IL Bastardo" 90 Points! The winery is located in the Rufina area of Tuscany outside of Florence in the Sieve River Valley and considered the best area for Sangiovese grapes after the "Classico" Region. Our consulting winemaker, Paolo Masi macerates the skin in stainless steel for 10 days creating a brightly colored fruit forward wine. Dark Ruby red color , aromatic nose, with black berry and cherry aromas and flavors. On the palate it is medium bodied with good tannis and an overall Chianti like fruit finish.

Domaine Lafage Bastide 'Miraflors' Rouge. Wine Advocate 92!


Domaine Lafage Bastide 'Miraflors' Rouge. Wine Advocate 92! "A steal from Lafage is the 2014 Bastide Miraflors, which is a Cotes du Roussillon, and a blend of 70% Syrah and 30% Grenache, with the Grenache aged in concrete tanks and the Syrah in 500-liter demi-muids. Lafage makes more expensive wines than this, but certainly excels with his value lineup. He has really hit a home run with this 10,000-case cuvee. It is deep, ruby/plum/purple, with fresh notes of blackcurrants, plums, Provencal herbs as well as licorice. Deep, medium to full-bodied, with amazing fruit, the purity, authenticity and Mediterranean upbringing of this wine are obvious. Quite deep, round and succulent, this wine should drink well for another several years. Drink 2015-2019.

Bodegas Borsao Garnacha Tres Picos 2014 Wine Spectator 91 WS TOP 100 2016 Rank 39. Vinous Media 92. Wine Advocate 90 "The outstanding 2014 Tres Picos (Garnacha) is 100% Grenache and comes from some of their oldest Grenache vineyards on the slopes of the Moncayo Mountains. Yields are less than two tons of fruit per acre and this wine was aged in neutral French oak and stainless-steel tanks for ten months prior to bottling. It's a beautiful wine, with plenty of Southern RhĂ´ne-like black cherry liqueur, garrigue, pepper, licorice and spice. It is medium to full-bodied, lusty and heady. This is a beauty to drink over the next 2-3 years. Founded in 1958, this has been one of Jorge OrdoĂąez' most consistently reliable producers of absolutely astonishing values from the province of Zaragoza. The appellation is Campo de Borja and this winery owns a whopping 3,706 acres of vineyards, of which 3,125 are planted to Grenache! The poor soils are dominated by the chalkiness, as this is close to the Moncayo mountain range that is nearly pure chalk. It is a continental climate and the vines are relatively young, having been planted 1981-1986. The winemaking is impressive and the values that emerge from here are mind-boggling."

Attems Winery Pinot Grigio 2015. Wine Spectator 92. "Sleek and minerally, this refreshing white is creamy in texture and balanced, with a pleasing mix of ripe apricot, pickled ginger, apple blossom and Thai basil notes. Drink now through 2020. 8,000 cases imported."


The Kicker is a huge Napa Cabernet Sauvignon that averages $114.99 and that is what it sells for at the Napa winery! Our Price will be $64.99! Rated 92 Points!
