Chateau Fontenil 2020 Red Blend Fronsac
Price range: $39.99 through $198.00

Bordeaux France
Jeb Dunnuck 93 Rating
The classic 2020 Chateau Fontenil from this Fronsac chateau is a winner and well worth a case purchase. Giving up lots of spiced red and black fruits, smoked tobacco, and flowery incense notes, it’s medium to full-bodied, has a round, supple, elegant texture, beautiful tannins, and nicely integrated oak. This sexy, seamless, straight-up impressive Fronsac will evolve for at least a decade. SP51-12

Château Fortia 2021 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Du Baron
Price range: $39.99 through $210.00

Southern Rhone Valley France
James Suckling 93 Rating
Dark and balsamic nose with wet earth and licorice aromas plus a touch of bark. Rich and full-bodied, but focused and bright, this is an excellent special cuvee of Chateauneuf. Its long, tense, stony and licorice finish suggests this has excellent aging potential. Sustainable. Drink or hold.

Chateau Francs Bories 2018 Red Blend
Price range: $17.99 through $180.00

St Emilion Bordeaux France
2018 was a great vintage in Bordeaux so even this quiet basic saint Emilion is doing well. A blend of Merlot and CF, nose full of red currant, black current and dark fruits, medium body with nice tannins and good acidity, quiet young and fruity, not very complex and easy to drink.

Chateau Gaby 2014 Red Bordeaux
Price range: $49.99 through $456.00

Canon-Fronsac France
This wine is lovely in color: an intense red with bright tints. Hints of pretty, red fruit are complemented by flavors of black fruit in some vintages. Discretely woody undertones highlight the classy nature of this wine. Very ripe, very elegant flavors with slightly toasted and spicy hints linger on the finish. All the wines from Château Gaby pair well with buttery foods, sharp cheeses, roasted meats, and veal. R2-1

Chateau Gaudin 2019 Grand Vin Pauillac
Price range: $39.99 through $360.00

Bordeaux France
Wine Enthusiast 92 Rating
Still with its firm tannins, this dense wine is promising. Its ripe blackberry fruits and concentrated tannins will shortly begin to soften into a well-rounded, balanced and juicy wine. *Cellar Selection*

Chateau Giscours 2020 Red Blend
$89.99

Margaux Bordeaux France
Wine Enthusiast 98 Rating
Perfumed, ripe and juicy, this structured wine is already impressive. Its layered texture and black plum fruits have serious potential, packed with fruit and tannins with a generous aftertaste. SP55-6
Château Gloria 2020 Saint-Julien
$56.99

Bordeaux
Vinous 95 Rating
The 2020 Gloria has an intense nose of penetrating blackberry, raspberry, crushed violet and crushed stone aromas. After 20 minutes, this just blossoms in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, fine acidity and just a touch of espresso and orange peel toward the finish, which remains taught and focused. What a wonderful Gloria! This might actually surpass its sibling, Château St. Pierre, this year. SPBX-12
Chateau Grand Puy Ducasse 2018 Grand Cru Classe Pauillac
$69.99

Bordeaux
Vinous 94 Rating
The 2018 Grand Puy Ducasse is just as impressive as it was en primeur. Readers will find a heady, richly textured Pauillac loaded with character. Technical Director Anne Le Naour and consulting oenologist Hubert de Bouärd coaxed tremendous richness from the 2018 while avoiding some of the excesses of the recent past. The result is a wine that delivers on all levels. Succulent dark cherry, plum, mint, licorice, sweet spice and a touch of new oak build into a striking crescendo on the lush, persistent finish. BX-6

Chateau Grand Puy Lacoste 2020 Grand Cru Classe Pauillac
$99.99

Bordeaux
Jeb Dunnuck 95 Rating
The 2020 Château Grand-Puy-Lacoste is a more fleshy, textured Pauillac that still plays in the concentrated, focused, structured style of the vintage. Ripe black cherries, currants, toasty oak, chocolate, and tobacco leaf notes give way to a medium to full-bodied, richly textured 2020 that has velvety tannins, good mid-palate depth, and a great finish. Do your best to hide bottles for 4-5 years and enjoy over the following 20-25 years or so. SPBX-6
