Château de Beaucastel Famille Perrin 2012, Châteauneuf Du Pape, Rhône A.C., France: Beautifully made with superb craftsmanship in this classic French red wine blend from the Rhone Valley! Full-bodied, concentrated and complex with layers of rich black fruit flavour and smoke. Great cellar potential but why wait? There's Old World style here, but also a modern twist and reinvigorated New World type energy. Pair with roast beef. Drink: 2015-2025. 711317 14.50% D 750 mL $89.95 Score: 95/100.

Beringer Quantum 2010, Napa Valley, California, United States: Mocha and dark chocolate from generous oak aging then step back to reveal dark fruit and spice on the palate. This wine needs serious cellar time then decanting before you enjoy it with hearty meat dishes. Drink: 2016-2022. 27452 14.50% XD 750 mL $89.95 Score: 92/100. April 16, 2015 Top Rated Red Wine.
