Château Teyssier 2011, Montagne Saint-Émilion, Bordeaux A.C., France: A classic Bordeaux that superbly balanced and elegant. This 2011 vintage is under-priced and over-shadowed by the big 2010 vintage, so here's your bargain Bordeaux. Snap it up! Aromas of blackcurrant, cassis and smoke. Nice finish. Great with steak. Drink: 2014-2020. 226035 14% XD 750 mL  $23.95 Score: 91/100. July 19, 2014 Top Rated Red Wine. Best Beef Wine Full Review
Altesino Brunello Di Montalcino 2014, Tuscany D.O.C.G., Italy: Savoury with ripe dark plum, dark cherry, smoky and rich with vibrant acidity on the palate. Pair with a rich pasta dish topped with lots of grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Drink: 2020-2028. 994095 13% XD 750 mL  $64.95 Score: 96/100. September 24, 2020 Top Rated Red Wine.

Lafond Pinot Noir 2012, Santa Rita Hills, Santa Barbara, California, United States: Love the mouth-watering juiciness upfront: embrace acidity -- it is your friend and makes wine come alive in the glass and dance with food. Loaded with black cherries and smoky oak with a plus texture and full-bodied weight. Very satisfying wine from SRH (Santa Rita Hills).  Finishes with dark spice, chocolate mocha and hedonistic happiness. Try it with grilled chicken. Drink: 2014-2019. 998666 14.50% XD 750 mL  $37.95 Score: 92/100. July 5, 2014 Top Rated Red Wine. Charming Grilled Chicken Wine Full Review
H3 Columbia Crest Cabernet Sauvignon 2015, Horse Heaven Hills, Washingon State, United States: Rich, round and robust Washington Cabernet Sauvignon. Aromas of mocha, black plum and espresso from oak aging. Delicious! Pair with prime rib. Drink: 2015-2020. 210047 14% XD 750 mL  $22.95 Score: 91/100. December 8, 2017 Top Rated Red Wine.
