Small Gully The Formula Robert's Shiraz 2010, South Australia, Australia: A rich, full-throttle Australian red wine that weighs in at a staggering 15.9% (why not round up?) Nonetheless it doesn't taste hot or out of balance as it has the fruit and structure to support that alcohol. Here's your go-to red when you want the most "bang" for your buck. Beats vodka by a long shot. Drink: 2012-2017. 142935 15.90% D 750 mL  $18.95 Score: 90/100. October 16, 2014 Best Value Red Wine. Heavenly Hamburger Wine Full Review

Talamonti Tre Saggi Montepulciano D'abruzzo 2011, Abruzzo D.O.C., Italy: Tre Saggi translates to "three wise men" and both wise men and women will be smart to try this wine. Rich, dark and savoury with black cherries and smoke and lots of mocha and sweet chocolate notes. Full-bodied and luxuriously thick like a comforting blanket you wrap closer to you on a chilly night under a starry sky by the campfire. Great structure and balance. An elegant dinner party wine that won’t cost a fortune. Plus the label looks like it cost twice as much as you paid for it ;)  Great spice and smoke notes on the finish.
