Other Varietals

Thistle Dew NV Cabernet - Petit Verdot Australia

A tastier wine the longer it was opened. Aeration a is a must. And a wine better the 2nd day than the first. Few wines can say that.

Nicolas Hermen 2009 Piesporter Spatlese Germany

A Spatlese much like a Vinho Verde, but a trifle sweeter (and a good kind of sweeter.)

Alice White 2009 Lexia (Moscato) Australia

In actuality it's a Moscato -- a rather sweet for my taste. But as a replacement for your White Zin, a possibility.

Santa Alicia Reserva 2008 Carmenere

A 90 point wine (so the label says) from the Wine & Spirits Magazine. They should have added a couple of footnotes.

Postales Del Fin Del Mundo 2008 Malbec Argentina

A surprisingly good Malbec if a trifle muted. The price however, is at my high end, unless you get a good deal from the wine merchant (like I did.)
