2017 Cono Sur Cabernet Sauvignon & Carmenere Chile $11
Intense ruby-red color in the glass! On the nose fine scent of plums, wild raspberries, tobacco, cocoa and moccha! On the palate full bodied with round tannins and a long, soft finish! Cheers!
2016 Pascual Toso Malbec Argentina $11
The polished and fruit-driven 2016 Reserva Malbec was also produced with grapes from Barrancas in the classical Maipú zone of Mendoza. There are some notes of iron and beef blood intermixed with cherries, plums and some spicy oak. It has some balsamic flavors and fine tannins, coming through as balanced and easy to drink. 35,000 bottles produced. 92 Points James Suckling
2016 Andezon Cotes du Rhone France $15
Long-time American readers should already know this wine, as it has been a staple in the Eric Solomon portfolio for more than a decade. The 2016 Cotes du Rhone Andezon is 100% Syrah, aged entirely in tank. It's a lush, medium to full-bodied wine bursting with ripe blackberries and blueberries. No, it doesn't have the peppery spice of Syrah from the northern Rhône, but it does have enough cola-like spicy complexity to warrant an outstanding rating. Drink it over the next 3-4 years. 91 Robert Parker
2014 Cummins Road Pinot Noir Yamhill $13 Deal of the year!
Cummins Road is made up entirely of our Block Three Dijon Clone 777 that brings us an unctuous - yet approachable - wine. Block Three is situated right below the Pommard and Wadensvil plantings which always make up the Merriman Estate blend.
Traditionally, this block is the first harvest pick of the vintage. It always delivers a wonderful freshness that highlights the bright, red plum, cherry fruit characteristics of the 777 clone with lively acids that make this one of the funnest Pinot Noir buys to make the scene in quite a while!
2015 Altitudes Cotes du Roussillon France $10
Henriques - Força Réal Description 45% Carignan, 30% Grenache, 25% Syrah Red garnet color. A burst of aromas of dark berries and spice. Fresh and smooth on the palate, with undertones of licorice, blackberries and blackcurrants. A well-balanced wine with a long finish.
2016 Carmen Grand Reserva Carmenére $15
This opens with berry and tar aromas. It's full bodied yet balanced, with blackberry, herbal plum and baking spice flavors that finish steady. Drink now–2022. 89 Points Wine Enthusiast
