Wow.  One of the best Sauvignon Blancs that I have had in a long time.  Light green/gold in color, clear and bright.  The nose is great with tropical fruit (Mango?), slight grapefruit, a bit of an herbal touch, and some minerality.  Great texture.  Medium bodied.  Lively acidity.  On the palate, this is delicious.  Deep.  Flavors of mango, grapefruit  and minerals.  Long finish.  This is great on its own and very food friendly.  It would be excellent with roasted or fried chicken.  Drink over the next ten years.

Made with organic grapes and Fair Trade Certified.  100% Malbec.  Purple in color, opaque and bright.  The nose is bold with plums, black cherries, char and slight spice.  Full bodied.  Nice texture.  Good balance.  Light to medium tannins.  On the palate, this drinks easy with plenty of fruit.  Plums, black raspberries, spice and char.  Good finish.  This is nice on its own and will work well with a burger off the grill.  This should drink well for the the next three to five years.

Think you can't find good wine under $10 a bottle?  Think again.  This is a solid value in red wine.  Ruby in color, mostly opaque and bright.  The nose has cherries, cranberries, and slight char.  Medium bodied.  Good acidity.  On the palate, plenty of red fruits; tart cherries, cranberries and some char notes.  This needs food to show its best.  A great choice for Pizza night!  Drink over the next few years.

A-

This is a blend 60% Garnacha Tinta,and 40% Viura from Rioja, Spain.  Light but intense pink/orange in color, clear and bright.  The nose is lovely with cherries, strawberries, minerals and slight citrus.  Medium bodied.  On the palate, this has nice balance with good fruit.  Cherries, slight black cherries, strawberries and also some minerality.  Good finish.  This is very food friendly and should work well with most foods and it drinks well on its own.  A nice pairing with Sauteed vegetables over rice.  Drink over the next year or two.  Nice value.
