The 2008 Angelini Piazzo Barbaresco, all nebbiolo, a Piedmontese aristocrat that stands up to strong flavors with dried flowers and spice. $30.
The 2009 Chappellet Pritchard Hill Cabernet Sauvignon, a big red with the power of Secretariat, vivid, dark, ripe and concentrated. $135.
The 2008 Rodney Strong "Rockaway" Cabernet Sauvignon, a single-vineyard, intense, juicy Alexander Valley star. $75.
The 2008 Col Solare, a cabernet sauvignon-based beauty from Antinori and Chateau Ste. Michelle, loaded with cassis, dark fruit and personality. $75.
