A beautiful minerality brings a lovely character. The palate is round with a finesse offering the aromatic flavors of gingerbread, honey and peach. The finish is persistent and ends on a light and refreshing mineral note. The first notes are very fine, complex and delicate. The aromas of peaches, quince and white flowers follow. Light aeration reveals the delicate scents of exotic fruit. The minerality brings a beautiful equilibrium and harmony.

La Purisima 2019 Old Vines Expression Red Blend
$14.99 – $144.00Yecla Spain
James Suckling 93 Rating
An excellent blend with Monastrell, Syrah and Garnacha. Deep and glossy with blackberries, wild spices and mineral. Concentrated but not hefty. Juicy, with a medium-to full-bodied palate enveloped by fresh, chalky tannins. Balance is the key here. Delicious now but can hold.

La Rioja Alta Rioja 2017 Viña Ardanza Reserva

James Suckling 95 Rating
A more vibrant and fruitier expression of Ardanza this year with strawberries, mussels, warm spices and berries. Round and silky on the palate with lovely spices and a long, nicely saline finish. A nice touch of creaminess works really well here and further extends the finish. 80% tempranillo and 20% garnacha. Drink or hold.

La Spinetta 2021 Timorasso Colli Tortonesi Derthona
$29.99 – $288.00Piedmont Italy
Antonio Galloni 91 Rating
The 2021 Timorasso Derthona is one of the more restrained versions of this rediscovered variety readers will come across. Orchard fruit, pear, lemon peel, sage and chamomile are nicely woven together. Timorasso can be a bit rustic, but many of those harder contours have been tamed here. Pretty floral notes round out the finish.

Wine Enthusiast 92 Rating
Dark-violet to the eye, this wine has a nose of brambly fruits of the wood mingling with honeysuckle and sage. It fills the palate with opulent tannins and flavors of purple plum, black currant, dark chocolate, coffee bean and a touch of wild lavender that lingers on the palate.

$278.99Napa Valley California
Wine Advocate 100 Rating
One-hundred percent Cabernet Sauvignon aged 20 months in 75% new French oak, the 2016 J Daniel Cuvee is deep garnet-purple in color and offers up exuberant notes of crème de cassis, chocolate-covered cherries, wild blueberries, violets and unsmoked cigars with touches of garrigue, fragrant earth, powdered cinnamon, black olives and tree bark. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is built like a brick house, with a solid frame of firm, grainy tannins and seamless freshness supporting the taut, muscular fruit, finishing long and minerally. 950 cases produced.

Lail Vineyards 2018 J. Daniel Cuvee Cabernet Sauvignon
$269.99Napa Valley California
Jeb Dunnuck 100 Rating
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon J. Daniel Cuvee comes from a mix of terroirs (Howell Mountain, Stags Leap, Oakville, Calistoga) and is brought up in 75% new French oak. Heavenly notes of red and black currants, dried tobacco, sandalwood, flowers, and spice give way to a full-bodied, concentrated, yet weightless texture that carries awesome tannins, no hard edges, and just flawless balance. This majestic, regal wine is going to drink brilliantly for 25 years or more. BX-6 R15-1 SP22-1
