2020 Heartland Spice Trader Shiraz Langhorne Creek It's gorgeously appealing on the nose with Black Doris plum, ripe cherry, olive and vanillin oak characters, followed by a wonderfully weighted palate delivering ripe fruit intensity with silky texture, finishing long and delectable.

2016 Ramírez de la Piscina Gran Reserva Dark but fresh, with graphite and milled pepper notes winding through fruit flavors of black plum reduction, blackberry and black currant underscored by a streak of tar and mineral. The rich, herb- and spice-laced profile of this medium- to full-bodied red is finely meshed with lightly chalky tannins. Drink now through 2030. 750 cases made, 450 cases imported.

2017 Glaetzer Red Blend 'Wallace' Dark magenta. A perfumed bouquet evokes ripe dark berries, candied flowers and licorice, along with hints of cracked pepper and cured tobacco. Fleshy blackberry, cherry-cola and floral pastille flavors show very good depth as well as energy and spicy lift. The clinging finish features fine-grained tannins and repeating floral and licorice notes. Vinous 91 2023-03-23
2017 Glaetzer Shiraz 'Bishop' Dark violet. Dark berry preserves, candied licorice, espresso and cola on the expansive nose. In a lush, appealingly sweet style, offering palate-coating blueberry, cassis, mocha and fruitcake flavors and a hint of smokiness. Closes long, smooth and vaguely jammy, with repeating spiciness and supple tannins that lend subtle grip. Vinous 92 2023-03-23
2017 Glaetzer Shiraz 'Bishop' A rich shiraz with plenty of ripe blackberry and plum aromas and flavors, as well as baking spices. Quite long, plush and assertive tannins. Drink or hold. Screw cap. James Suckling 92 2023-03-23
2018 Glaetzer Red Blend 'Anaperenna' The 2018 vintage has delivered such strong quality in these full-bodied reds from the Barossa. This has all the ripeness with vitality, depth and freshness. Aromas of blackberries and blackcurrants, as well as leaves and violets, lead to a very deep, dense and juicy palate that carries such luscious, black and blue-fruit flavors. Very drinkable now, but better from 2024. James Suckling 94 2023-03-23
2022 Domaine de Vedilhan Pays d'Oc Viognier Spicy nose with plenty of herbs, smoked tarragon, dried nectarines, apricots and stones. Full-bodied and supple on the palate with some Mediterranean herbs and spices that linger in the nicely phenolic finish. Some bitter spices and almonds to close. Delicious now. Screw cap.

2021 Col Vetoraz Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore di Cartizze The Col Vetoraz 2021 Valdobbiadene Superiore di Cartizze Dry is creamy and soft with sweet peach and melon. The wine's residual sugar is recorded at 24 grams per liter, and that's definitely high enough to register as a "medium dry" or "almost fully sweet" sparkling wine. However, that softness is what makes Cartizze so special and sensual with creamy beading and immediate aromas. Production is limited to 6,508 bottles. Wine Advocate 91 2023-03-17
2019 Pursued by Bear Red Blend 'Bear Cub' Columbia Valley This is no “baby”: This bold, rich Cabernet Sauvignon-driven blend has grown-up elegance, from its aromas of dewberries, dark raspberries, saline and rose petals, to its Mikhail Baryshnikov-like balance. In between, look for flavors of blackberry fruit jellies, thyme and dark chocolate. Editors’ Choice. Wine Enthusiast 93 2023-03-13
