Beringer Merlot 2011, Napa Valley, California, United States: Toasty oak with tasty dark chocolate and black plum aromas and flavours in this iconic Californian red wine. Fairly smooth though decanting for 2 hours will help. Soul soothing and heart quickening. Finishes with black plum and dark spice. Concentrated, deep and satisfying. Pair with roast beef. Drink: 2014-2020. 919647 14.30% D 750 mL $39.95 Score: 92/100. April 16, 2015

Franciscan Cabernet Sauvignon 2012, Napa Valley, California, United States: A full-bodied Californian Cabernet with a long life ahead of it. Give this one some more cellar time, then decant 1-2 hours when you open it. Aromas of black fruit, violets, cigar box and smoke. Pair with prime rib.
