Cheval Noir "Grand Vin" Saint Emilion 2013
87
Our Score
This is classically Bordeaux. Despite those familiar grapes (here 70% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon), this wine couldn't really come from anywhere else in the wine world. In no way is this overripe or does it wear flashy new oak, this spreads just enough bright red plum and strawberry fruit over pebbly soil, iron filings and autumnal leaves. This is good honest drink-me-now Bordeaux at an unheard of price to wash down anything off the grill. You can not purchase Saint-Emilion for less than $10, and we can't go back far enough to find the last time we were able to offer this. When this is gone, it's gone.

(1/1/2020) "Delicate and light on the nose, this bottling begins with crisp aromas of squeezed grapefruit and Meyer lemon peel. It's clean and down the middle on the palate, showing flavors of apple slices drizzled in lemon juice and lime zest."

(12/30/2019) "The 2016 Merlot H3 is a pure expression of a Merlot that has a fresh and fruity nose, showing a mix of American and French oak aromas. Sweet vanilla and toasted coconut, Juicy red plum and dark cherries all can be tasted on the medium-bodied palate with soft floral flavors. Ending with a good, clean finish, the wine is easy-drinking and delivers well for the price. Drink Date: 2019 - 2023."

Golan Heights Winery "Mount Hermon" Golan Heights Red 2018
Kosher
Winemaker's Notes
The Galilee (or Galil) is the most northern, and generally considered the best, appellation in Israel. The highest quality area within the appellation is the Golan Heights (or simply the Golan), the coldest region in Israel. The vineyards on this volcanic plateau rise from 400 meters (1,300 feet) above sea level to 1,200 meters (3,900 feet) and receive snowfall in the winter.

Kris Pinot Grigio delle Venezie 2018

Wine Advocate
(7/11/2019) "This wine celebrates its 25th anniversary in this vintage, and as usual, it's a laid-back and simple white that is linear and bright. There are interesting grassy tones in the Kris 2018 Pinot Grigio with blasts of citrus. This bargain-priced screwcap bottle is a great summer picnic partner for deviled eggs or a big platter of chips and guacamole. Drink Date 2019 - 2021."

(12/2018) Here's a great little find direct from Bordeaux! Blending 60% Merlot with 20% Cabernet Sauvignon and 20% Cabernet Franc, all from Entre-Deux-Mers ("Between Two Seas"), this red offers a concentrated mouthfeel, not what you'd expect at this price! Concentrated red and black fruits with a gravelly, dusty flavor and bright, pleasant finish. This is the perfect everyday "Bistro" Bordeaux!

(4/30/2019) "The new 2018 Coleccion Origen El Vivero de Usaldon is an homage to the old Usaldon vineyard that Bernabe used to work that was ripped out and replaced by almonds. It contained Rojal, Garnacha Peluda and Forcalla del Arco that were used to plant one hectare of mixed varieties, which were used for this wine. It's a five-year-old vineyard in Finca Casa Balaguer, and they used 30% full clusters and the rest uncrushed grapes to ferment in tinajas with natural yeasts, pressed after it finished fermenting and put back in the tinajas for four months. It's clean, precise and quite fruit driven but not banal, with an earthy touch. The palate is medium-bodied and revealed fine tannins and good freshness. It's 13% alcohol and feels just perfect and very balanced. The price for these new wines has not yet been set."

(7/2020) Twin brothers Alexis and Numa Cornut are ninth generation farmers in the Southern Rhone Valley's Costieres de Nimes region. They utilize sustainable farming techniques and they produce some dang good wines, especially this wonderfully smile-inducing blend of Syrah and Grenache. Soft, gritty and fresh, this peppery wine is packed with authentic Southern Rhone flavors of red and black fruit with hints of smoke, earth and spice. Perfect for backyard grilling,
