Crios Susana Balbo Dominio Del Plata Torrontés 2013, Mondoza, Argentina: This Argentine gem of a wine introduces itself with lime and apple blossom. Medium-bodied, floral and expressive: it's so pretty. Perfect for mild and medium curries and spices. The price is simply amazing for the taste. This is one of Argentina's best winemakers.

Château Siaurac 2010, Lalande de Pomerol, Bordeaux A.C., France: I wonder if the alcohol level is correct on the label? It doesn't taste that hot, and this is very high for Bordeaux at 15%. Love the nose of this full-bodied Bordeaux red wine blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot grapes from the Left Bank region of Pomerol. The 2010 vintage was a strong one for Bordeaux. Aromas of fleshy red cherries and violets, followed by darker fruit on the palate. Luscious and supple with some tannic grip that will soften with 2 hours decanting. This will last in the cellar but why wait as it's ready now. Good, satisfying finish. Pair with a rare, juicy steak. Drink: 2018-2026. 309831 15% D 750 mL  $44.95 Score: 92/100.
