| Branson Coach House 2004 |
| Polished, open-textured and distinctive for all the floral notes spinning through the rich cherry, currant, plum and dusky spice flavors, lingering on the refreshing finish. Lavish tannins don't get in the way. - WS |

| Casa Lapostolle Cuvee Alexander Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 |
| 90 Points Wine Spectator
Really juicy and ripe, with fleshy layers of sweet raspberry and boysenberry fruit riding along red licorice, fruitcake and a nicely embedded vanilla streak. Long, polished finish. Very tasty.
Chilean climate is perfect for vine-growing. The vines have never been grafted. It was a revelation to discover that a good number of very old vines were still growing in the vineyards. These original cuttings were brought over from France in the last century and arrived in Chile before the dreaded phylloxera louse attacked the parent stock in Europe. As a result, the old vines in Chile are healthy and descendant from great French lineage.

| Cheval Des Andes 2004 |
| An Argentine wine produced by France's Chateau Cheval Blanc
and Argentina's Terrazas De Los Andes.
93 Points Robert Parker
"The 2004 Cheval des Andes is composed of 55% Malbec, 43% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 2% Petit Verdot. Purple-colored, it offers a complex bouquet of pain grille, violets, pencil lead, black cherry, and black currant. This is followed by a medium to full-bodied, elegant wine with a smooth texture, intense flavors, and outstanding length. There is enough hidden tannin to support 8-10 years of further evolution in the bottle and it should continue to drink well through 2030. Cheval des Andes is owned by legendary St.-Emilion producer, Chateau Cheval Blanc. The wine is sourced from their 50 hectare estate vineyard planted on its own roots in 1929. The first vintage was 1999 and the 2004 was the first in which there was more Malbec than Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend. New oak is utilized for the Cabernet and 1 year old barrels for the Malbec." |

| Cigale Grenache Mourvedre Shiraz 2006 |
| 90 Points Wine Spectator
This lovely Aussie Rhone blend made by ex-New Zealanders who settled in the Barossa Valley, their focus is on producing regional wines from Mediterranean varieties. A rich nose of blackberry, blueberry and plum fruit, mingled with smoky white pepper notes and exotic spices. A juicy palate, loaded with dark berries, hints of cassis, and complex earthy spices.

| Clio Bodegas El Nido 2007 |
| 93 points: Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar
A blend of 70% Monastrell ( Mourvedre) and 30% Cabernet from 63 year old vines. A pungent, smoky bouquet displays rich dark berry preserves along with notes of licorice, violet, cured meat and black pepper. Brighter red fruits on the palate, which is surprisingly energetic for such richness. Tangy cracked pepper and mace notes build with air and carry into the finish. Leaves sweet red and dark berry notes behind on the very long, sappy and sweet finish. This energetic wine is already delicious.
Note: The 2007 Clio is in and it is every bit as compelling as prior vintages. [95 pts Robert Parker on the 2006 vintage, 96 pts Robert Parker on the 2005 vintage, 97 pts Robert Parker on the 04 vintage, 93 pts Robert Parker on the 2003 vintage] The consulting winemaker at Bodegas El Nido is Chris Ringland of Barossa Valley fame. This Spanish masterpiece is glass-coating opaque purple, it exhibits a sensational nose of earth, mushroom, leather, blueberry, and blackberry jam. On the palate the wine is supple-textured, complex, with vibrant flavors of spicy blue and black fruits and a big-time WOW factor. This is a totally hedonistic effort with exceptional length and balance. It is remarkably light on its feet for such a powerful wine. A Jorge Ordonez Selection |
