Prioundo Corbières Grenache Blend 2011
That's right. Not enough happy faces. As the toughest wine critic I know says "Delicious". Good luck finding it in the US. K&L carries some of their other great juice but not this 80 Grenache 20 Cinsault beauty. 16 euro at the winery. Cannot get any better. Our favorite from the Languedoc (12 wineries in 2 weeks). My wine of the year for 2013!!! — 12 years ago

I'm no wine critic but, this is what I think of when I think of wine. — 11 years ago
Frick Winery
Dry Creek Valley Syrah
2005 Syrah, all sorts of old tobacco and leather and smoke. It's like a wonderful old leather armchair that you're not sure if you should like, but you definitely do. Ron Swanson would reluctantly drink. — 11 years ago
Aquinas
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2011
One of the better wine's for under 25 dollars that I have tasted. Very smooth. My wife even likes it and she is a tough critic. Great wine. — 11 years ago

Morlet Family Vineyards
Bouquet Garni Bennett Valley Syrah 2011
Delicious wine from a tough vintage. After 4 hrs of decanting the fruit is coming out while the oak is settling. Look forward to another 3-5 years to enjoy another bottle. I think this vintage will surprise many common and critic. — 11 years ago
Quinta do Noval
Vintage Port Nacional 2011
I understand why this got a gazillion point rating from every critic on earth. Astonishingly concentrated but with fantastic lightness. — 11 years ago
Montalbera
Laccento Ruché di Castagnole Monferrato
This is a very rare wine made from a single 40 hectare vineyard Italian grape called "ruche." A well-known Italian critic gave this and the previous, 2011 vintage 99 points and declared it Italy's best red wine. I don't know about all that, but it's a very good wine. If give it 94 points. Unusual combination of flowers, earth, smoke, and red fruits on the nose and palate. A very good wine. Excellent with food as well. — 12 years ago

My mom is my favorite wine critic; "There's a whole lot of.flavors in there!...I can't name any of them, but they're all there!"
I got you covered, mom.
Black pepper, lean brambly red and black fruit, hints of jerky. — 11 years ago
