Soar Above

Henriot

Brut Souverain Champagne Blend

Great bubbles, complex on the back end. A steal at €27, and head and shoulders above its peers. — 11 years ago

Le Vieux Pin

Petit Rouge Red Blend

Merlot with a dash of Syrah, this wine gives you red cherries and dusty blackberries with a sprinkling of pink peppercorns. Punches above its weight class.

The Prisoner Wine Company

The Prisoner Napa Valley Zinfandel Blend 2012

Had the 2012 (can only find the 2012 magnum on Wally's Wine and Spirits Website, and well worth it as it's above and beyond the '13) on our honeymoon in Kauai at the St Regis Kauai Grill. Wonderful wine that barely needs need to breathe and can be pretty much paired with anything. — 11 years ago

Château Redortier

Beaumes-de-Venise Red Rhone Blend 2010

Lovely balance, opened up with a bit of aeration and punched well above its weight. — 11 years ago

Château Potensac

Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2000

Bodega Navarro Correas

Colección Privada Mendoza Malbec 2011

Very tasty! As Lloyd put it... "It's a step above our wine in a box." :) — 13 years ago

Bollinger

La Grande Année Brut Champagne 2004

As far as big houses go, always been a fan of the special cuvée. This is a cut above - lots and lots of biscuit and toast, but very well integrated, bit of dried apricot and a slight tinge of bitter oxidation rounding out this one - fantastic sparkler. — 11 years ago

Château Pontet-Canet

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1983

83 vintage was showing strong tannin still... Lovely wine, everything there but definitely in to secondary flavour characteristics. Even this far back Pontet-Canet was punching above it's 5th growth status. #mtlwinethrowdown — 11 years ago

Flowers Vineyard & Winery
