Munda Dao 2008
€28.50According to John Wilson in the Irish Times (march 3rd 2012), "the palate is very structured with masses of dark fruits, distinctive dark chocolate notes, and excellent length. Very nicely balanced, if a bit young. Decant before serving, or keep a year or two, but well worth the money."

Masciarelli Iskra Colli Apruntino Montelpulciano 2004
€34.95Iskra, "The Spark", is a jewel in the Masciarelli portfolio. The vineyard is located in Contraguerra, near Monte Amaro. Contraguerra, the remains of an ancient, battered seaside mountain, has gathered its soils from an ancient sea bed, the Trento River basin, and the glacial washout from Monte Piselli. With its rich, well drained soils and its ocean moderated warm climate, Contraguerra is home to the biggest, boldest, ripest reds in Abruzzo. Learn More -
Montevertine I.G.T. 2008
€39.95The 2008 Montevertine emerges from the glass with sweet red cherries, mint, flowers and spices. It shows gorgeous inner perfume and lovely balance in a classy, understated style typical of the vintage. This feminine, lithe wine is a solid effort in a challenging vintage.

Penfolds RWT Shiraz 2004
€89.95The 2004 Shiraz "RWT" was barrel-fermented and aged for 14 months in 69% new French oak. Opaque purple-colored, it delivers an expressive nose of smoke, leather, grilled bacon, game, blueberry, and licorice. Full-bodied, it is dense, ripe, and layered as well as opulent. More forward than the Magill Estate, this hedonistic Shiraz can be enjoyed now but will continue to evolve for another 8-10 years. 95 points from Robert Parker. Learn More -
Cakebread Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2008
€115.00The 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon is a fairly straightforward wine with good varietal character. With time in the glass the wine opens up nicely. Dark plums, tobacco, grilled herbs and licorice take shape nicely in this attractive, mid-weight offering. This is a beautiful, sleek Cabernet Sauvignon. In 2008 the blend is 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc, 4% Petit Verdot and 1% Malbec. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2016. Wine Advocate #198 Dec 2011 Learn More
