| 11101 | 11100 | Italy | This very internationally-styled blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah displays dense fruit, brisk acidity and the lavish use of oak. Extremely dark aromas and flavors predominate, with firm black plum, tobacco and earth elements. The long and even finish of this weighty offering shows tart blackberry flavors and full tannins. | Summus | 91 | 63 | Tuscany | Sant'Antimo | | | | Castello Banfi 1997 Summus Sangiovese (Sant'Antimo) | Sangiovese | Castello Banfi |
| 11102 | 11101 | US | Very much in the vein of a super-oaked, ripe Chardonnay, bursting with peach and tropical aromas and flavors, but with a distinctly nutty, minerally, almost steely note and an electric jolt of acidity. Judging from the very long, sweet finish, it's got quite a life ahead of it. | | 91 | 24 | California | Chalone | Central Coast | | | Chalone Vineyard 1999 Pinot Blanc (Chalone) | Pinot Blanc | Chalone Vineyard |
| 11103 | 11102 | Chile | A blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Grande Vidure, 20% Petite Syrah and 10% Merlot, it is as if you can clearly account for each varietal's contribution. Ripe cassis, cherry, plum, and spice flavors are buttressed by well-integrated oak. Beautifully balanced, it has good acidity and mature tannins, and closes with a long, satisfying finish. Great wine for tonight's grilled T-bone, and worthy of mid-term cellaring . | Winemaker's Reserve | 91 | 40 | Maipo Valley | | | | | Carmen 1997 Winemaker's Reserve Red (Maipo Valley) | Red Blend | Carmen |
| 11104 | 11103 | US | Starts off with rich, fragrant aromas of ripe peaches, mangos and flowers, with vanilla and buttery-oaky notes. There's lots of buttercream in the mouth, along with ripe, forward tropical fruit and spice flavors and a high acidity level that creates a searing, mouthwatering quality. Good stuff. | | 91 | 25 | California | Carneros | Napa-Sonoma | | | Etude 1998 Pinot Blanc (Carneros) | Pinot Blanc | Etude |
| 11105 | 11104 | France | The perfumed character of this pure Vermentino is right up front. It gives the wine its ripe character and fine orange blossom aromas. The wine is crisp, juicy and with a refreshing aftertaste. | | 87 | | France Other | Patrimonio | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Clos Teddi 2015 Vermentino (Patrimonio) | Vermentino | Clos Teddi |
| 11106 | 11105 | Italy | Young and racy, this has aromas of moist earth, red berry and chopped aromatic herb. The tangy, light-bodied palate offers strawberry, sour cherry, orange peel and a touch of clove alongside firm acidity and refined tannins. It cries out for food and would pair well with hearty pasta dishes topped with thick tomato-based sauces and savory soups. | | 87 | 25 | Tuscany | Rosso di Montalcino | | Kerin O’Keefe | @kerinokeefe | Crocedimezzo 2014 Rosso di Montalcino | Sangiovese | Crocedimezzo |
| 11107 | 11106 | France | This blend that seems to include every Corsican and Provence red grape works out as a wild and wonderful wine.

| 11108 | 11107 | Uruguay | Inky cool herbal black-fruit aromas set up a choppy tight palate with pounding tannins. Flavors of black coffee and blackberry are heavily toasted. The finish keeps that toasty theme while introducing notes of pepper and horseradish. | 100 Años Viñas Mendoza | 87 | 17 | Montevideo | | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Gimenez Mendez 2015 100 Años Viñas Mendoza Malbec (Montevideo) | Malbec | Gimenez Mendez |
| 11109 | 11108 | Uruguay | Inky purple in color, with herbal, minty, toasty berry aromas that suggest a touch of green, this Tannat-Malbec blend tastes of rooty, baked black fruits and black pepper. On the finish, which is hard as rocks, this tastes of licorice and burnt toast. | Las Brujas | 87 | 22 | Canelones | | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Gimenez Mendez 2015 Las Brujas Red (Canelones) | Red Blend | Gimenez Mendez |
| 11110 | 11109 | France | This is a new wine from this negociant house that specializes in limited production wines.

| 11112 | 11111 | Georgia | Deep straw in color, this semi-sweet wine made from an indigenous Georgian grape has an aroma characterized by soft hints of apple. It is harmonious in the mouth, with flavors of ripe apple, white peach and apricot that meld into a finish marked by persistent floral sweetness. | Georgian Valleys Alazani Valley | 87 | 12 | Kakheti | | | Mike DeSimone | @worldwineguys | Tbilvino 2014 Georgian Valleys Alazani Valley Rkatsiteli (Kakheti) | Rkatsiteli | Tbilvino |

It doesn't bring much complexity but still offers plenty of appeal. | | 87 | 11 | Washington | Columbia Valley (WA) | Columbia Valley | Sean P. Sullivan | @wawinereport | Anew 2015 Pinot Grigio (Columbia Valley (WA)) | Pinot Grigio | Anew |
| 11114 | 11113 | France | Grapes from the small village of Saint-Bris le Vineux west of Chablis are used in this attractive, crisp and fruity wine. It has a strongly mineral tang to its fruitiness with lemon zest and intense acidity. The aftertaste is softer, rounded and ready to drink. | Paul Delane Réserve Brut | 87 | 23 | Burgundy | Crémant de Bourgogne | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Bailly-Lapierre NV Paul Delane Réserve Brut (Crémant de Bourgogne) | Sparkling Blend | Bailly-Lapierre |
| 11115 | 11114 | Italy | Aromas of ripe orchard fruit, pressed flower and a whiff of citrus zest take center stage on this enjoyable white. The bright palate offers golden apple and pear while a note of bitter almond closes the finish. | Tufaie | 87 | 15 | Veneto | Soave Classico | | Kerin O’Keefe | @kerinokeefe | Bolla 2015 Tufaie (Soave Classico) | Garganega | Bolla |
| 11116 | 11115 | US | This easygoing, generously fruity wine has candied fruit aromas, just enough tannin for balance and leaves a nice blackberry nuance on the finish. | | 87 | 15 | California | California | California Other | Jim Gordon | @gordone_cellars | Tom Gore 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon (California) | Cabernet Sauvignon | Tom Gore |

| 11120 | 11119 | Chile | Herbal berry aromas are dry and foresty, much like Loire Valley Cabernet Franc. This is superficially creamy and a touch sticky, but otherwise not that deep or dense. Leafy-berry flavors finish with notes of spice, olive and herbal berry. This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carmenère and Merlot is more old school than modern. | Grand Reserve | 87 | 18 | Maule Valley | | | Michael Schachner | @wineschach | Balduzzi 2013 Grand Reserve Red (Maule Valley) | Red Blend | Balduzzi |
| 11121 | 11120 | US | Dank earth, dark berry and cherry are the standouts in this wine, which is a bit more lush than some of the producer's vineyard-designates. Approachable in its acidity and oak, it's a good place to start at a somewhat reasonable entry price. | Estate Grown | 87 | 29 | California | Russian River Valley | Sonoma | Virginie Boone | @vboone | Balletto 2014 Estate Grown Pinot Noir (Russian River Valley) | Pinot Noir | Balletto |
| 11122 | 11121 | US | Fresh blackberry and cherry aromas are cloaked in exotic shades of cocoa powder, soil and spice on the nose of this Cabernet Franc. The palate is a bit more reserved, suggesting crisp black-fruit flavors bolstered by fine tannins and a zesty acidic backbone. The finish is brisk but clean. | | 87 | 21 | New York | Finger Lakes | Finger Lakes | Anna Lee C. Iijima | | Barnstormer 2014 Cabernet Franc (Finger Lakes) | Cabernet Franc | Barnstormer |
| 11123 | 11122 | US | This well-mannered, well-balanced and medium-bodied dry wine offers tasty raspberry and pomegranate flavors. Light tannins add a little grip. | | 87 | 20 | California | California | California Other | Jim Gordon | @gordone_cellars | Bell 2014 Red (California) | Red Blend | Bell |
| 11124 | 11123 | New Zealand | This silky, medium-bodied Pinot Noir represents much of what Marlborough Pinot has to offer: generous cherry fruit, modest complexity largely imparted by oak and supple tannins, all at a reasonable tariff. Drink now–2018. | | 87 | 24 | Marlborough | | | Joe Czerwinski | @JoeCz | Black Cottage 2014 Pinot Noir (Marlborough) | Pinot Noir | Black Cottage |
| 11125 | 11124 | US | This mild-flavored and smooth-textured wine will be a good supporting actor at the next meal or party.

| 11126 | 11125 | US | This is a big wine in structure, but mellow and complex in flavor as if it's been well aged. Blended from Grenache, Tempranillo and Monastrell, it smells lightly sweet and tastes dry and inviting like vanilla, milk chocolate and raspberries. | The Mix | 87 | 16 | California | Sierra Foothills | Sierra Foothills | Jim Gordon | @gordone_cellars | Irwin Family Vineyards 2013 The Mix Red (Sierra Foothills) | Red Blend | Irwin Family Vineyards |
| 11127 | 11126 | US | This wine kicks off with awesome aromatics of jasmine flowers, white beach, green tea and Rainier cherry.

| 11128 | 11127 | France | A blend that includes Aligoté along with the traditional Champagne grapes, this is lively and bright. Fresh apples and a soft aftertaste make for an easy to drink wine that is lit with final acidity. | Brut | 87 | 20 | Burgundy | Crémant de Bourgogne | | Roger Voss | @vossroger | Cave de Bissey NV Brut (Crémant de Bourgogne) | Sparkling Blend | Cave de Bissey |
| 11129 | 11128 | France | This is a nutty wine with flavors of hazelnuts and a mature character. The fruit has developed a honey flavor, keeping the acidity and an attractive spicy aftertaste.

| 11130 | 11129 | France | This wine reflects the ripeness of the vintage while still retaining crisp minerality. Creamed apples are balanced with a tangy texture and soft acidity.
