Oyster Bay Pinot Noir 2016, Marlborough, New Zealand: Oyster Bay's Pinot Noir 2016 of this lovely Pinot Noir is nicely crafted with ripe black cherries, plum, dried savoury herbs and cake spice. This is a solid PN, intense with crisp acidity. Toasty oak on the nose of this New Zealand red wine wraps around fleshy ripe black cherries. Full-bodied, mouth-watering juicy and smooth with a great finish. Smoky oak and black cherry notes with some dark spice on the finish. Terrific with a wide range of dishes, from roast chicken to salmon. Enjoy now with roast lamb and veal dishes. Drink: 2018-2022. 590414 14% XD 750 mL  $20.95 Score: 91/100.

Borsao Tres Picos Garnacha 2016, Campo De Borja D.O., Spain: Borsao Tres Picos is a full-bodied 100% Grenache red from the Campo de Borja wine region located in south Rioja. Lots of mocha and dark chocolate aromas on the nose that are then flooded with lusciously ripe black fruit on the palate. Full-bodied and smooth. The 2016 vintage is great value under $20. This winery is comprised of 100% Garnacha grapes. The grapes for this wine grow on old vines, which provides additional concentration and flavour. Great structure. A rich darkly hued colour in the glass. A long, satisfying finish. Pair with grilled steak. Drink: 2018-2025. 273748 15% XD 750 mL  $19.95 Score: 91/100.
