Gold-Medal Bordeaux
Château Haute Tuque 2010, Bordeaux
Every wine list needs a good Bordeaux. Château Haut Tuque is a velvety, plum-laden find from 2010 — "looking like THE greatest Bordeaux vintage" (Decanter). Gold in Paris, and a hit in your house.
Southern Italian Blockbuster
Masseria Cavallo 2009, Puglia
In Italy’s sun-drenched south, Filippo Baccalaro gets awesome depths of flavor from his ancient Negroamaro vines. You get the perfect pasta red. Plum, coffee, wild herbs and more.
Burgundy Meets California
Baileyana 2010, Edna Valley
Burgundy’s Christian Roguenant now makes world-class Chardonnay in California’s super-cool Edna Valley. This has tropical fruit, zesty citrus and lovely creamy oak. Delicious with roast chicken.
Rich Malbec Reserva
HJ Fabre Reserva 2010, Mendoza
Tall, dark Malbec seeks good steak. Direct from Argentina's 2010 Winemaker of the Year (voted by a panel of 40 Masters of Wine). Taste for yourself why Hervé Fabre is such a superstar.
"Genius" Washington Cab
Charles Smith 2009, Columbia Valley
Food & Wine named Charles Smith their 2009 Winemaker of the Year. Robert Parker calls him "a genius." Let us know what you think of his rich, complex Cabernet.
Classic Italian Pinot Grigio
Il Pino 2010, Venezie
Taste the latest from star Venetian winemaker Giuseppe Secchi. He’s a Pinot Grigio expert, and thanks to the fantastic 2010 vintage, he created a real gem. Wait until you taste it …
Critics' Favorite Rioja
Barón de Barbón 2009, Rioja
Pride-and-joy red of father-and-son winemaking team Julian and Javier Murúa. And, says the Sunday Express in London, "what true Rioja is all about." Luscious, juicy mouthfuls of ripe strawberry toasty oak.
Top New Zealand Sauvignon
Stonewall 2010, Marlborough
Explosive aromas of ripe passion fruit, citrus zest and black currant leaf. Classic Marlborough Sauvignon from the brilliant Dr. John Forrest. You won’t find better (or fresher).
