Premius 2005 Merlot-Cabernet Sauvignon (Bordeaux Clairet)
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $10
A 50-50 blend of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, this is a full-bodied rosé. Assertive chocolate and cherry aromas and flavors finish dry and slightly dusty with tannin, making it a solid choice with grilled meats, less so with fish.

Premius 1998 Red (Bordeaux)
- Best Buy
- $10
A négociant bottling from the ubiquitous Yvon Mau, this wine proudly boasts élevé en futs du chene on the label. You can certainly notice it in the cedary aromas and flavors, but it’s adequately balanced by cassis and tobacco flavors. The fruit tastes a touch overripe, but it seems to work well here.

Premius 2006 Sauvignon Blanc (Bordeaux Blanc)
- Best Buy
- $10
A creamy textured wine, with fresh green apples, herbs, pink grapefruit and a fresh, crisp zing. It is full-bodied, intense and packed with fruit.

Premius 2005 Red (Bordeaux)
- $10
Solid, wood-flavored tannins give this wine a good, smooth texture. Flavors of red cherries dominate what is an attractively fruity wine.

Premius 2005 Merlot-Cabernet Franc (Bordeaux Clairet)
- Online Exclusive
- $10
A 50-50 blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc, this isn't as attractive as the other Clairet bottling from Premius. This one lacks a bit of textural interest, but does feature clean strawberry and raspberry fruit. Imported by Freixenet USA.

Premius 2000 Red (Bordeaux)
- $10
Round and full aromas and bold red-fruit flavors is what this is about. There’s some peppery spice and a hotness to the finish. It’s a touch aggressive, however, and it falls short of full balance.
