Ratings Key
Arzuaga 2005 Ribera del Duero (SP) ~
WA90/TC96 ~ $33.99 |
Case $27.19 "Dark, dark ruby color. Powerful, but delicate aromas of dark fruit, saddle leather and herbs. Lots going on here – layers over layers of dark fruit, leathers, with herbal and spicy notes. Wonderful. Full-bodied but elegant and complex. Great acidity and long finish. ~Jens, Tasting Circle
Alloro Vineyard 2007 Pinot Noir (OR) ~ TC91 ~ $32.99 Sale $22.99 | Case $18.39 "Roasted meat aromas (duck, pheasant?), plums, plump nose, black cherry, sage. Palate: cherry vanilla cola, summer herbs coming through, plum sauce, more cooked flavors, wet dog! I love it! ~ Ken O'hara, Tasting Circle
Domaine De La Tourmaline 2007 Muscadet Sèvre Et Maine (FR) ~ TC90 ~ $17.99 | Case $14.39 A pale, yellow straw color. Beautiful aromas of fresh grass and hay. Very pleasant mouthfeel. Good acidity and blance. Tastes like a well-made Muscadet. Notes of citrus and lime. Very refreshing. Bring on the oysters, baby! -Jens, Tasting Circle
