#10 Wine of the Year from The Wine Spectator 2008
Seghesio Zinfandel Sonoma County 2007
93 points
"The Seghesio family has been making wine for a century in northern Sonoma County and farms more than 400 acres of Zinfandel in Alexander and Dry Creek valleys. They make a range of vineyard-designated Zinfandels, such as Home Ranch and Cortina, and a bottling from the oldest vines. But for this Sonoma County 2007, winemaker Ted Seghesio tapped his diverse grape sources for a more widely available, well-priced wine. Aged 11 months in 75 percent American oak, it's complex, with a supple texture and a spicy finish." -- Wine Spectator

2007 Seghesio Sonoma Zinfandel...$20.99
"A seductive and vigorous Zinfandel, with smoky black cherry and blueberry aromas and youthful wild berry, sage and cracked pepper flavors that have a lingering finish and zesty tannins. Drink now through 2012. 68,000 cases made. –TF"
Rated 93/100 The Wine Spectator





Alvear Solera 1927 Pedro Ximenez 375ml...$21.99
"The impressive 1927 Pedro Ximenez Solera, from a Solera begun nearly 80 years ago, boasts a dark amber color as well as an extraordinary nose of creme brulee, liquefied nuts, marmalade, and maple syrup. Huge and viscous, yet neither cloyingly sweet nor heavy, it is a profound effort priced unbelievably low. It is meant to be drunk alone at the end of a meal."
Rated 96/100 The Wine Advocate




2006 Yann Chave Crozes Hermitage Le Rouvre...$31.99
"Sweet and ripe, with lots of mocha, dark licorice, plum sauce and fruitcake flavors backed by a fine-grained structure and a long, mineral-tinged finish. Shows nice weight for the appellation. Drink now through 2011. 150 cases imported. –JM"
Rated 92/100 The Wine Spectator





2006 Yann Chave Crozes Hermitage Classique...$28.99
"Really ripe and pure, with a great beam of blackberry and currant fruit layered with iron, dark toast and violet notes. Long, silky finish. Drink now through 2011. 200 cases imported. –JM"
Rated 91/100 The Wine Spectator




2005 Domaine St. Damien Gigondas Les Souteyrades...$27.99
"Really exotic and alluring, with incense and warm fig cake aromas that then meld into warm bittersweet chocolate ganache, blackberry confiture, graphite and Turkish coffee notes. Fine-grained and long on the finish. Drink now through 2012. 400 cases imported. –JM"
