McManis Family Viognier 2006
River Junction, California
89 Points - California Grapevine
Medium straw in color. Aromas of Peach, Pear, Apricot and Melon are accompanied by underlying mineral notes. The apricot found on the nose carries over to the flavor of this rich wine. Ripe Pear and Melon accompany it. The finish is long, faintly flinty and clean, with hints of citrus.
Casillero Del Diablo Carménère 2006
Rapel Valley, Chile
88 Points - Wine Spectator
Color: Dark and deep crimson red. Bouquet: Luscious flavors - dark plums and chocolate with hints of coffee and toasty American oak.
Taste: Notes of dark plums and spice, generously framed by toasty American oak with a soft and well structured mouthfilling texture.
Casillero del Diablo Carménère is excellent with fresh light dishes based in meats, vegetables and fresh herbs. Also a good accompaniment to ripe cheeses such as Gouda, Gruyere or a dry goat cheese.
Marques de Casa Concha 2004
Puente Alto Vineyard, Maipo Valley, Chile
93 Points - Wine & Spirits
Color: Bright, deep red.
Bouquet: Cherry, chocolate, black tar and smoke.
Taste: A smooth, almost silky texture with a long finish. Concentrated and full bodied.
The wine complements steaks, roasts, pasta dishes with robust sauces, and strong cheeses.
