Value Reds for the Holidays

As gatherings with family and friends rapidly approach and you're trying to get every piece of the puzzle in place for next Thursday's festivities, don't forget the most important piece of all - the wine! Preparing for the holidays can be stressful enough without having to worry about what wine to serve. We've taken it upon ourselves to help you select a few red wines that are the perfect pairing for your holiday meal. We've got the stuff to keep up with your stuffing and the compliment to your cranberry - and each and every one is a great value. Here are some of the top picks, all of which are in stock and ready to ship.

2004 Numanthia - Numanthia (98 WA) - “Any aspiring collectors should add a case of this to their stash. The 2004 Numanthia comes from a different terroir with a different clone of Tinta de Toro. The vines for this cuvee range from 70-100 years of age with tiny yields of 1 ton of fruit per acre. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation in barrel followed by 19 months in new French oak before being bottled unfined and unfiltered. The wine is a glass-coating opaque purple with a killer nose of mineral, pencil lead, wild blueberry, and blackberry liqueur that roars from the glass. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, dense, and already beginning to show complexity within its layers of spicy black fruits. There is immense power, well-concealed ripe tannin, and the well-delineated finish lasts for over one minute. This is a sensational effort which in a perfect world should be cellared for a decade and enjoyed over the following 25+ years. However, the elderly among us should not feel guilty about opening a bottle now.” - Jay Miller, Wine Advocate

2005 Beaux Freres - Pinot Noir Ribbon Ridge The Beaux Freres Vineyard (93 WS) - “Firm in texture at first, but then blossoms into a panorama of flavors, fanning out its raspberry cream flavors and hinting at floral, mineral, green tea and Asian spice notes as the finish picks up steam. Not a big wine, but has many layers to explore.” - Harvey Steiman, Wine Spectator

2005 Girardin, Vincent (90-92 BH) - “A pretty nose of red pinot fruit, earth and a hint of the sauvage that can also be found on the big, deep and broad flavors that possess excellent power and culminate in a long, muscular and firmly structured finish. This is well balanced and also very Pommard in character.” - Allen Meadows, Burghound
