2013	Killibinbin	Sneaky Shiraz	This is a supple, creamy-textured Shiraz to enjoy through 2020. Red-fruit notes of strawberry and raspberry marry easily with dark hints of plum and mocha, then linger gently on the finish.	Wine Enthusiast	90		2016-10-10
2014	Landmark	Overlook Chardonnay	Alluring aromas of smoky, toasty oak and rich flavors of fig, apricot and melon give this an appealing, drink-me-now character. Drink now.	Wine Spectator	90		2016-09-26
2013	Carol Shelton	Rocky Reserve Zinfandel	The mix of mostly Zin with 14% Petite Sirah from a longtime source for this producer shows plenty of minerality around flavors of cinnamon stick, dark cherry and leather. Soft tannins give it approachability and juiciness that are buoyed by length.	Wine Enthusiast	92		2016-09-22
1992	Terrassous	Vintage 1992 Rivesaltes Vin Doux Naturel	This lush and powerful selection opens with intense aromas of candied walnuts, orange rind, peanut brittle, dried apricot and vanilla-soaked oak. Round and plush in feel, it boasts a silky texture and decadent notes of apricot syrup, ginger-peach tea, clove-spiked orange and wood spice that are kept in check by ample acidity. A lovely pour that is delicious now yet will continue to hold well for another decade.	Wine Enthusiast	92		2016-09-22
2009	Chateau Bopuscasse	Vendemiaire	Petit Manseng, found in the deep southwest, lends itself so beautifully to sweet botrytized wines. With its beautiful apricot and mango flavors, filled with honey and spice, this is a wine that is both light and rich. The acidity gives the wine a lift at the end.	Wine Enthusiast	91		2016-09-22
NV	Terrassous	Hors d'Age ACO 6 Yrs Revesaltes Vin Coux Naturel	The NV Rivesaltes Ambré Hors d’Age 6 Ans has a vibrant, light amber/whiskey color to go with sweet notes of golden raisins, bitter orange, almond and subtle browned sugar. Made from 100% Grenache Blanc and aged six years in barrel, it’s medium-bodied, silky, seamless and layered. It lacks complexity and is slightly straightforward with its sweetness, yet it’s never cloying and is one sexy drink.	Wine Advocate	90		2016-09-22
