3 bottles of Querceto - Liocorno Chianti Classico Riserva 2015. Full ruby red, wide, well expressed, with red fruit and floral aromas. It expresses elegant tannins supported by a persistent and balanced finish.

3 bottles of Daou - Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 - Paso Robles. Rich and sophisticated on the nose with currant, black cherry, cedar and eucalyptus, and displays undertones of briary blackberry and wet gravel. Ancillary aromas of coffee and cocoa are rounded out nicely with notes of crushed sage and baking spice. Full bodied and formidable on the palate, offering enticing and juicy wild blackberry, Oregon blueberry and crisp black cherry flavors. Hints of plum and mulberry are accentuated with fig, black olives and fine leather. Excellent structure and harmony between the pure fruit core and firm, supple backbone of polished tannins. Finish is surprisingly elegant for a wine of such power. Silky and smooth, ending on lovely notes of sweet cherry and boysenberry.
