Emineo 2007 Liber II Red (Durbanville)
-
$51
A full-bodied wave of savory spice and rich fruit. Aromas of tobacco, mint, cassis and mocha lead, followed by smooth, luscious flavors of plum, smoke, and tobacco. Ageable but delicious now, the wine has a soft character that makes it good for solo sipping. It also will pair nicely with steaks and soft cheeses.

Emineo 2006 Liber I Red (Durbanville)

$51
Cloves, black fruit and vanilla spice on the nose are followed by a brooding array of tobacco, spice, red berry and vanilla on the palate. Full-bodied but smooth, with a lingering, savory finish. Pair with steak, lamb or aged cheeses.
