2010 Malescot-St-Exupéry, Margaux (1.5L) Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 5-16-2011
Seamless and plush, with hints of chocolate and mint on the nose and chocolate-covered cherry flavors on the palate. This wine is hedonistic, sexy and tough to spit out.

2010 Margaux, Margaux Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 5-16-2011
Fruit! That’s the first thing that comes to mind upon smelling and tasting this wine. It’s packed and oh-so-pretty, with tons of black cherry and notes of minced meat. So fresh. Only 13.5% ABV.

2010 Saint-Pierre, St-Julien Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 5-16-2011
Another stunner from the owner of Château Gloria. Spicy, herbal and racy, with great integration of fruit and toasty oak.

2010 Haut-Bailly, Pessac-Léognan Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 5-13-2011
A must buy! After the duo from Haut-Brion, Haut-Bailly may be the top performer in Pessac, producing wines with a very singular feel. Layers of supple red fruit intermingle with sandalwood accents from oak barrels.

2010 La Mission Haut-Brion Rouge, Pessac-Léognan Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 5-13-2011
Elegant, sexy and suave, with mashed raspberry fruit and milk chocolate nuances.

2010 Pape Clément, Pessac-Léognan Pre-Arrival
Review Date: 5-13-2011
A must buy! Plush and seamless, so smooth and seductive. Chocolate, dark fruits and velvety tannins caress the palate.

2006 Quinta Sardonia Ribera del Duero
Review Date: 10-20-2010
The 2006 Quinta Sardonia is a stunning wine that really displays the lovely fruit that the Ribera del Duero is capable of uncovering. It mixes gorgeous, precise red fruits with an earthy terroir. There's just enough oak to frame this large-scale, broad offering. The fruit is so delicious and precise, the wine feels vibrant and alive on the palate. This wine can pair well with meats or cheeses or be served as an aperitif. It can age for 5 to 15 years easily, yet is eminently drinkable now.
Price: $39.99 Add To Cart RP 93
