Yellowtail Shiraz 2002, Australia    $12.99. March 1, 2012 Full Review
Peter Lehmann Wines Portrait Riesling 2016, Eden Valley, Australia: The vines for this stunning Australian Riesling are planted in sparse limestone soils, quite the opposite of Barossa terroir. The result is a tightly wound, racy, exciting Riesling with a nervy edge of acidity for seafood. This wine will live on past your grandchildren. The wine is named in honour of a winemaker who had been at the helm for 34 years. Highly recommended. Drink: 2016-2024. 303305 11.50% XD 750 mL  $25.00 Score: 93/100. December 7, 2017 Top Rated White Wine. Full Review
Ruffino Ducale Oro Riserva Chianti Classico 2010, Tuscany, Italy: This big Italian red wine needs serious cellar time. The 2010 vintage was a powerful one and it shows in the glass of this Sangiovese-based wine. Aromas of tart cherry, earth, dust and smoke. Decant 1-2 hours. Perfect for juicy meat dishes. Drink: 2016-2022. 353201 13.50% XD 750 mL  $49.95 Score: 92/100. May 28, 2016 Top Rated Red Wine. Perfect Pasta and Tomato Sauce Wine Full Review
Miguel Torres Coronas Tempranillo 2012, Catalunya, Spain: Incredible texture and mouth-feel on this luscious Spanish red wine. That's what the Tempranillo grape delivers consistently. Aromas of dark red fruit and some dark spice. Perfect for grilled or blackened chicken. Drink: 2013-2018. 29728 13% D 750 mL  $13.95 Score: 87/100. April 15, 2015 Best Value Red Wine.
