| 42804 | 42803 | US | This wine is a blend of Grenache, Pinot Noir and Pinot Gris. Salmon colored, it offers light notes of red apple, melon and a hint of strawberry. The flavors are dry and generous, with a broad feel bringing a lot of appeal. | Love Birds | 90 | 15 | Washington | Washington | Washington Other | Sean P.

| 42805 | 42804 | Austria | Tender, friendly hints of juicy pear beckon. The palate follows with more oomph and lots of lemon freshness. There is a lovely textural element to the crisp midpalate and edges of peppery herbs everywhere that haunt you long after the lip-smacking finish. | Lion | 90 | 24 | Niederösterreich | | | Anne Krebiehl MW | @AnneInVino | Sohm & Kracher 2015 Lion Grüner Veltliner (Niederösterreich) | Grüner Veltliner | Sohm & Kracher |
| 42806 | 42805 | US | Winemaker Phillip Corallo-Titus of Chappellet works here with the great Sangiacomo family to make an affordably impressive wine, from the oldest blocks he can get. He coaxes toasted oak and nougat from a darkly colored, viscous texture and intensity of ripe apple and baked apricot, the ending rich and rewarding. | Sangiacomo Vineyard | 90 | 27 | California | Carneros | Napa-Sonoma | Virginie Boone | @vboone | Sonoma-Loeb 2014 Sangiacomo Vineyard Chardonnay (Carneros) | Chardonnay | Sonoma-Loeb |
| 42807 | 42806 | Austria | Slight notes of grass and stone fruit on the nose become more pronounced on the light but intensely flavored palate which bursts with zesty freshness and leaves the mouth bathed in green, leafy aromas forever. | Classic | 90 | 18 | Südsteiermark | | | Anne Krebiehl MW | @AnneInVino | Strauss 2015 Classic Sauvignon Blanc (Südsteiermark) | Sauvignon Blanc | Strauss |
| 42808 | 42807 | Austria | Notes of peppery blueberry fruit are faint on the nose but present themselves with a disarming honesty on the fresh, sprightly palate. There is a gently drying tannic structure and a great purity of dark berry which gives this an appetizing, brooding aspect. Lovely. | Classic | 90 | 16 | Burgenland | | | Anne Krebiehl MW | @AnneInVino | Strehn 2014 Classic Blaufränkisch (Burgenland) | Blaufränkisch | Strehn |
| 42809 | 42808 | US | A sly, subtle wine delicate in profile and character, this has acidity as its main star, and also playing a few supporting parts. Rhubarb, cranberry and orange lie atop more savory specks of cardamom and tea. | Peters Vineyard | 90 | 44 | California | Sonoma Coast | Sonoma | Virginie Boone | @vboone | The Withers Winery 2014 Peters Vineyard Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast) | Pinot Noir | The Withers Winery |
| 42810 | 42809 | US | This wine is expansive and juicy on the palate. A tight grip shows its youth while the underlying softness on the texture reflects the relative coolness of the growing spot. It imparts Napa's robust ripeness in its depth of cassis, chocolate and black pepper. | | 90 | 60 | California | Oak Knoll District | Napa | Virginie Boone | @vboone | Trefethen 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon (Oak Knoll District) | Cabernet Sauvignon | Trefethen |
| 42781 | 42780 | US | Offering pronounced aromas of apricot fuzz, this is a pungent, slightly flabby white with a layer of unbalanced sweetness on the midpalate that lingers a long time. | Estate Grown | 82 | 15 | California | Lodi | Central Valley | Virginie Boone | @vboone | Zagan's Fire 2012 Estate Grown Verdelho (Lodi) | Verdelho | Zagan's Fire |
| 42782 | 42781 | US | This white is overtaken by alcohol, giving it a sharp taste of weight and oak over slight wafts of sour apple and honey. | Buttner Sunol Vineyard | 82 | 28 | California | Livermore Valley | Central Coast | Virginie Boone | @vboone | Las Positas 2012 Buttner Sunol Vineyard Pinot Blanc (Livermore Valley) | Pinot Blanc | Las Positas |
| 42783 | 42782 | US | This Merlot is okay for everyday drinking, but it's pretty simple. It has modest cherry flavors, with some green, vegetal notes. | | 82 | 10 | California | California | California Other | | | Bogle 2011 Merlot (California) | Merlot | Bogle |
| 42784 | 42783 | US | Your basic everyday Zinfandel, with candied raspberry and cherry fruit, toast and pepper flavors, as well as a streak of green unripeness. | Old Vine | 82 | 11 | California | California | California Other | | | Bogle 2011 Old Vine Zinfandel (California) | Zinfandel | Bogle |
| 42785 | 42784 | Argentina | This shows oxidation and nuttiness on a pulpy, fleshy, cheesy-smelling bouquet. As Chardonnay goes, this is heavy and breaks down on the palate. Flavors of orange and mango finish wheaty and oxidized. | | 82 | 22 | Mendoza Province | Mendoza | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Cicchitti 2012 Chardonnay (Mendoza) | Chardonnay | Cicchitti |
| 42786 | 42785 | US | Candied flavors of blackberries and cherries mark this dry, full-bodied Cab. It's an everyday sipper for easy fare, like burgers or pizza. | | 82 | 8 | California | California | California Other | | | Domino 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon (California) | Cabernet Sauvignon | Domino |
| 42787 | 42786 | Spain | Briny, pickled, stalky red-berry aromas are sketchy. This feels tannic and raw, while the flavors are more weedy, green and bitter than fresh and exciting. | Crianza | 82 | 12 | Central Spain | Valdepeñas | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Marques de Moral 2008 Crianza Tempranillo (Valdepeñas) | Tempranillo | Marques de Moral |
| 42788 | 42787 | US | While perfumed on the nose with aromas of rose petal and peach, a vein of green lingers throughout this blend of Muscat and Malvasia. It's dry and medium bodied in style, but delicately concentrated with soft, yielding acidity. | Aromatico | 82 | 25 | New York | North Fork of Long Island | Long Island | Anna Lee C. Iijima | | Palmer 2011 Aromatico White (North Fork of Long Island) | White Blend | Palmer |
| 42789 | 42788 | Argentina | Gold in color, with oxidized aromas of straw, almond skins, butterscotch and baked apple, this PG is fading fast. Flavors of apple and briny stone fruits finish with almondy notes and bitterness. | Tolentino Winemaker's Selection | 82 | 15 | Mendoza Province | Mendoza | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Bodega Cuarto Dominio 2012 Tolentino Winemaker's Selection Pinot Grigio (Mendoza) | Pinot Grigio | Bodega Cuarto Dominio |
| 42790 | 42789 | US | Inky black in color, this Petite Sirah is rather thin in flavor. It has diluted blackberry jam fruit, compromised by vegetal notes. | | 82 | 11 | California | California | California Other | | | Bogle 2011 Petite Sirah (California) | Petite Sirah | Bogle |
| 42791 | 42790 | Argentina | This red-tinted, full-bodied rosé is strained on the nose, with a strong, distinct whiff of wet animal fur. The palate feels heavy and unfocused, while flavors of plum skins and nectarine finish bitter and without any crispness or cleansing properties. | Alta Collection Malbec | 82 | 15 | Mendoza Province | Mendoza | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Tapiz 2013 Alta Collection Malbec Rosé (Mendoza) | Rosé | Tapiz |
| 42792 | 42791 | US | This Petite Sirah is deeply black in color and otherwise satisfactory though a bit disjointed, with an off-aroma of rubber peeking through. | Estate Bottled | 81 | 35 | California | Livermore Valley | Central Coast | Virginie Boone | @vboone | Las Positas 2011 Estate Bottled Petite Sirah (Livermore Valley) | Petite Sirah | Las Positas |
| 42793 | 42792 | US | With small percentages of Syrah and Viognier, this Petite Sirah is simple and has a pronounced smoky personality. | Hybrid | 81 | 10 | California | Lodi | Central Valley | Virginie Boone | @vboone | Peltier 2011 Hybrid Petite Sirah (Lodi) | Petite Sirah | Peltier |
| 42794 | 42793 | US | Despite an official alcohol level of 14.2% by volume, this Cab is so hot and overripe, it tastes like brandy. It's all about raisins, oranges, oak and acidity. | Westside | 81 | 32 | California | Paso Robles | Central Coast | | | Dunning Vineyards 2011 Westside Cabernet Sauvignon (Paso Robles) | Cabernet Sauvignon | Dunning Vineyards |
| 42795 | 42794 | US | An awkward wine, it's too ripe, with raisin flavors, and bitter, with raisin-skin tannins. Alcohol gives it a liqueur sweetness. | | 81 | 32 | California | Paso Robles | Central Coast | | | Dunning Vineyards 2010 Meritage (Paso Robles) | Meritage | Dunning Vineyards |
| 42796 | 42795 | US | Vegetal, unripe flavors mar this Pinot's otherwise attractively silky texture and raspberry fruit. Drink now. | | 81 | 28 | California | San Luis Obispo County | Central Coast | | | Felten Cellars 2011 Pinot Noir (San Luis Obispo County) | Pinot Noir | Felten Cellars |
| 42797 | 42796 | US | Sanguine, high-toned red fruit features prominently in this almost-equal blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. Dusty tannin and a relatively light-bodied texture belie the power lurking beneath, the finish a hit of Red Hots and cherry cola. | Dunfillan Cuvée | 90 | 28 | California | Sonoma County | Sonoma | Virginie Boone | @vboone | Kunde 2012 Dunfillan Cuvée Red (Sonoma County) | Red Blend | Kunde |
| 42798 | 42797 | Austria | A fresh peachy note on the nose carries a tinge of earthy yeast and savoriness. The palate offers zesty concentration and more of that textured yeasty soy spice. This is fresh but rounded and shows ample backbone on its concentrated palate. | Charming Reserve | 90 | 30 | Kamptal | | | Anne Krebiehl MW | @AnneInVino | Laurenz V. 2014 Charming Reserve Grüner Veltliner (Kamptal) | Grüner Veltliner | Laurenz V. |
| 42799 | 42798 | France | This is a delicious, ripe wine that is packed with apricot, apple and pear fruits. It is tangy and freshly fruity. The bright, rich fruit continues right through this wine that is ready to drink now. | Made From Organically Grown Grapes | 90 | 13 | Bordeaux | Bordeaux Blanc | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Les Hauts de Lagarde 2015 Made From Organically Grown Grapes (Bordeaux Blanc) | Bordeaux-style White Blend | Les Hauts de Lagarde |
| 42800 | 42799 | US | The aromas of cocoa, raspberry, black tea, vanilla and cranberry are in full bloom. The cranberry and cherry flavors are ripe and full, backed by firm tannins.

Sullivan | @wawinereport | Liberty Lake 2009 Merlot (Red Mountain) | Merlot | Liberty Lake |
| 42801 | 42800 | Italy | Underbrush, grilled porcini mushroom, leather and a whiff of iris lead the nose. On the youthfully assertive palate, clove, star anise, orange peel and aromatic herb accent tart red cherry while firm tannins and fresh acidity provide the backbone. | Rocchettevino | 90 | 80 | Piedmont | Barolo | | Kerin O’Keefe | @kerinokeefe | San Biagio 2012 Rocchettevino (Barolo) | Nebbiolo | San Biagio |
| 42802 | 42801 | US | Hailing from McClellan, Seven Hills and Anna Marie vineyards, this wine opens with aromas of fresh and dried herbs, black licorice and dark cherry along with a toasty top note. It coats the palate with velvety fruit flavors, with the tannins combed to a fine sheen. | | 90 | 30 | Washington | Walla Walla Valley (WA) | Columbia Valley | Sean P. Sullivan | @wawinereport | Saviah 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon (Walla Walla Valley (WA)) | Cabernet Sauvignon | Saviah |
| 42803 | 42802 | Austria | Ferns, yeast and citrus come together in an appetizing trio of flavor. The palate is fluid and slightly rounded, but still light. There is a zesty, phenolic texture and lots of freshness on the concentrated palate. The finish is clean-cut and lip-smacking. | Bisamberg-Kreuzenstein | 90 | 15 | Weinviertel | | | Anne Krebiehl MW | @AnneInVino | Schwarzböck 2015 Bisamberg-Kreuzenstein Grüner Veltliner (Weinviertel) | Grüner Veltliner | Schwarzböck |
