Three Sticks 2020 Price Family Estates Pinot Noir
$54.99Sonoma Coast California
James Suckling 91 Rating
Rather fruit-forward pinot noir with strawberry, cream and walnut aromas and flavors. Medium to full body, round tannins and a succulent finish. Not the most complex wine, but delicious. Drink now. R1-1 SP5-2 -
Toil 2018 Pinot Noir
$59.99–$588.00Willamette Valley Oregon
Wine Enthusiast 91 Rating
Chris Figgins' Oregon project is now in its seventh vintage, and this latest release shows a strong streak of citrus along with juicy blueberry- and blueberry-pie-fruit flavors. There's a light vein of tanned leather and a finish with lemon verbena and herbal tea highlights. Roughly one-third new French oak was used to age the wine.
Must be ordered.

Torre de Oña 2014 Finca Martelo
$29.99Rioja Spain
Wine Advocate 94 Rating
This wine is released as Martelo in Spain but that be renamed as Finca Martelo in the international market. So, I tasted the 2014 again but this time labeled as 2014 Finca Martelo. The wine hasn't changed much since the last time I tasted it; it's aromatic and showy, with elegance and poise, nicely balanced and perfumed with a medium body and very fine tannins, intense flavors and a long finish. It's evolving very slowly, and I wouldn't be surprised if it made old bones. R11-2 -
Torrin 2013 Tsundere
$89.99Paso Robles
Wine Advocate 95 Rating
Another blockbuster, the 2013 Tsundere shows the more pretty style of the vintage, but certainly doesn't pull any punches with its graphite, black fruits, scorched earth and charred meat aromas and flavors. A blend of 30% Syrah, 30% Grenache, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Tannat aged in 70% new barrels, it has a full-bodied, pedal to the metal character on the palate as well as ripe tannin and a big mid-palate. Drink this hedonistic 2013 anytime over the coming decade or more. SP15-1 -

Wine Spectator 93 Rating
A lovely nose of petrol and white pepper leads to flavors of apricot, star anise, lemon peel and herb in this elegant, light-bodied white, defined by finely cut, steely acidity. Offers a long, mouthwatering finish. Drink now through 2030. R9-4 -
Tuck Beckstoffer 2016 Mockingbird Blue
$259.99Napa Valley California
Wine Advocate 96+ Rating
Share Tweet
Comprised of 99% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Merlot, the 2016 Proprietary Red Mockingbird Blue has a deep garnet-purple color and spills sensuously out of the glass with seductive notes of blackcurrant cordial, blueberry pie, fruitcake and licorice with suggestions of molten chocolate, spearmint, hoisin and Chinese five spice. Big, rich, full-bodied and decadently spicy in the mouth, it has a firm, grainy frame and a very long, layered finish. SP30-4 -

Turley 2014 Petite Sirah Library Vineyard Napa Valley
$99.99California
Wine Advocate 95 Rating
Noticeably floral with blueberries and blackberries is the 2014 Petite Syrah Library Vineyard, from a site adjacent to the Hayne Vineyard on the back streets of St. Helena. Again, this has civilized tannins that are silky and well-integrated, followed by a wine with an enormous wealth of fruit, lavish concentration, and extravagant texture and richness. It is always hard to peg when these will hit full maturity, but this one has a good 5-10 years of development and should keep for three decades as well. SP19-1 -
Turley 2015 Petite Sirah Hayne Vineyard Napa Valley
$124.99California
Antonio Galloni 96 Rating
The 2015 Petite Syrah Hayne Vineyard possesses a gorgeous structural spine to balance the intense, inky fruit. Chocolate, plum, spice and succulent red cherry notes abound in this creamy, super-expressive Petite. SP19-1
