2007 Domaine Serene Rockblock SoNo
Country: USA       Region: Oregon
Soft, plush and generous with its coffee-accented plum, berry and exotic spice flavors, built to entice with well-integrated tannins, and long enough on the finish to warrant cellaring.

2003 Guigal Hermitage Rouge
Country: France  Region: N. Rhone / Hermitage
One of the finest cuvees of regular Hermitage Guigal has ever produced is the 2003 Hermitage. Copiously fruity with a blackberry/cassis liqueur note, huge, flowery, almost chocolatey richness with superb freshness, purity, and a stunning thickness and opulence, this is spectacular Hermitage that should drink well for 30+ years.

2008 Spring Mountain Estate Syrah
Country: USA       Region: California / Napa / Spring Mtn
Lots of rich flavors of blackberry, black currant, bacon, pepper and clove in this Syrah, which comes from the winery’s big vineyard on Spring Mountain. Feels luxurious in the mouth, with a silky texture and a deep, long finish. It’s a bit brusque in tannins, but that’s part of its structural distinction.
92 POINTS, WINE ENTHUSIAST

Cost: $20 ($15 after 5pm)
