ANTICA TERRA PINOT NOIR 2007 WILLAMETTE VALLEY
The Wine Insiders 94 points: "This is a racy wine that will reward those with the patience to indulge in it over the course of an evening. Persistent fruit flavors cradle an intricate mixture of spice and oak - all carried by that luxurious silky texture that Pinot lovers are always on the look out for. This gorgeous Pinot will easily cellar for 5-7 years and provide healthy dividends to the patient soul that is able to show such restraint! "

GOLDENEYE PINOT NOIR 2006
One of the most requested wines from consumers and collectors around the world.
The Wine Enthusiast 91 points: "Very rich, very fine, this Pinot is a blend of Goldeneye's best vineyards. It shows a molten density, like liquid silver, lush in red cherries, licorice, cinnamon, coco, dried herb and orange zest flavors, and should develop in the bottle through 2012."

CLOS LA COUTALE CAHORS 2007
Wine Spectator 90 points : "Big, rich and darkly colored-these are the descriptors for the best red wines from the Cahors district of southwest France. The leading grape is Malbec (that's right, there was Malbec before Argentina) and now a small group of quality-oriented producers is pursuing a higher profile for Malbec in its homeland. Tannat and Merlot can also used in these blends. Besides an array of dark fruit flavors, the following wines from Cahors offer plenty of muscle and dense structures. They beg to be drunk with a juicy rib-eye or a roasted leg of lamb. There's a good sense of elegance to the well-defined, concentrated flavors of dark cherry, blackberry and plum, followed by notes of sage, dark chocolate and tobacco leaf on the long, powerful finish. Drink now. 5,000 cases imported"

NEYERS CHARDONNAY THIERIOT VINEYARD SONOMA COAST 2006
Neyers Vineyards sits in the heart of the Napa Valley. The barrels are made in France and air dried for three years, a year longer than normal. All of the grapes are picked by hand, into half-ton bins, then laboriously hand sorted at the winery.
These hillside Chardonnay vines are now 25 years old. The crop is invariably small, and the wine is an ideal example of mountain-grown Chardonnay from the Sonoma Coast. 512 cases produced."
The Wine Advocate 93 points: "Hints of lime oil, white currant, peach, and honeysuckle, all buttressed by terrific acidity, comprise the full-bodied 2006 Chardonnay Thieriot Vineyard. A cool-climate wine with some stunning acidity and nicely integrated wood, this is a beauty that should drink nicely for another 3-4 years"

LADERA CABERNET SAUVIGNON HOWELL MOUNTAIN 2004
Wine Spectator 91 points: "A rustic yet smooth and harmonious style, with dusty berry, mineral, sage and herb scents that form a complex core of flavors. There's good intensity, and the tannins are in check. Ends with a minerally aftertaste, making this a wine that's very true to its appellation. Best from 2008 through 2016. 2,500 cases made ."

CEDERBERG BUKETTRAUBE SOUTH AFRICA 2007
At an altitude of more than 1000 m above sea level, Cederberg Cellar is South Africa's highest winery. A cool continental climate, with snow in winter and northwesterly breezes in the hot summers, combined with several different soil types, unpolluted air and crystal clear waters, make this dramatic landscape the ideal terroir for a wide range of noble wines. This particular offering is semi-sweet with 24mg/l sugar, though never cloying. Exotic and very delicate, it shows floral and fruit salad aromas, with a hint of honey, dried peaches and ripe muscat. All natural sugar with a bracing fresh finish.
