Domaine Tournon Mathilda M. Chapoutier Shiraz 2011, Victoria, Australia: Loaded with black pepper, dark spice and intrigue on the nose of this beguiling, full-bodied red wine. Once again, Chapoutier over delivers no matter where he makes wine in the world. This is an incredible price. Dark fruit and smoke on the finish.

Bründlmayer Kamptaler Terrassen Gruner Veltliner 2012, Kamptal D.A.C., Austria: Ultra-refreshing with lime green aromas and flavours. Terrific acidity for food. Great zestiness. This winery's vineyards are planted in the middle of the Kamp Valley, which is 75 kilometres northwest of Vienna, and they face the Kamp river on steeply terraced plantings. The result is intense ripening during the days, with cool nights to preserve refreshing acidity. Try it tonight! Drink: 2014-2022. 979708 12% XD 750 mL  $19.95 Score: 89/100.

Chateau Reysson 2014, Haut-Medoc, Bordeaux, France: Cru Bourgeois is the mark of a quality appellation within Bordeaux, and it shows in this terrific 2014 red wine. The vines for this robust red are planted in the Medoc where the soils have been eroded to the point where there is no soil, but only gravel, which provides excellent drainage to make those vines suffer and produce small grapes or berries of great concentration in flavour. This is mostly Merlot in the blend with some Cabernet Franc. Pair with prime rib. Drink: 2017-2024. 13.50% XD 750 mL  $30.00 Score: 91/100. April 26, 2017 Top Rated Red Wine. Full Review

Porcupine Ridge Boekenhoutskloof Cabernet Sauvignon 2013, Coastal Region W.O., South Africa: Blackcurrant and wild blackberry flavour richness on the nose and palate, with a gorgeously smooth texture and full-bodied weight. Nice cedar and underbrush notes on the finish. Perfect for hearty meat dishes. Nice price, too. Drink: 2014-2018. 146894 14.50% D 750 mL  $16.95 Score: 90/100. February 7, 2015 Best Value Red Wine.

Torres Mas La Plana Cabernet Sauvignon 2010, Penedès D.O., Spain: A savoury, full-bodied Spanish red wine made from the noble Cabernet Sauvignon grape. This wine is a blockbuster with so much dark fruit flavour, complexity and depth. It's worth twice the price, easily. The 2010 vintage was a strong one and it shows in this glass. Although this is a Bordeaux blend, it's contained in a traditional Burgundian sloped shoulder bottle. It's been produced by the Torres family for more than three decades now. Decant 1-2 hours. Pair with the good life, or filet mignon, or both. Drink: 2017-2023. 129676 14.50% XD 750 mL  $70.00 Score: 95/100. September 30, 2017 Top Rated Red Wine. Voluptuous Veal Wine Full Review
