OK, here it is..... This falls into the category of one of the greatest deals of all time!
A legitimate $80 bottle with a 94 point rating! This may very well be the
deal that's impossible to top.
"There are 2000 cases of 2005 Emigre, a blend of six grape varieties
sourced from a range of Barossa sites designed to reflect a “palate” of the
Valley. The blocks were cropped at 1 ton of fruit per acre. The composition
of the blend is 30% Shiraz, 30% Grenache, 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15%
Mourvedre, with the balance Carignan and Muscadelle. The wine was aged from
18-20 months in new French oak. It offers a complex aromatic array of smoky
oak, damp earth, pencil lead, clove, pepper, cassis, and blueberry.
Supple-textured and very intense, the wine exhibits spicy red and black
fruits, with hints of mint and chocolate in the background. It is layered,
opulent, and long while maintaining its elegant personality. Give it 5-7
years in the cellar and drink it through 2025."

You could spend a fortune of flowers, perfume and chocolate or you could
spend less than $20. Now, when she, or he, talks about Valentine gifts,
which one's gonna stand out!!
“This frothy semi-sweet red wine from northern Italy has become one of my
Valentine’s Day favorites because it is that rare bubbly that can stand up
to chocolate, though bittersweet and dark chocolates work best. The aroma of
freshly crushed red raspberries dominates the nose and palate, and there is
plenty of acid backbone to balance the finish. It’s versatile, too. I
sometimes serve Rosa Regale as an aperitif with salty or spicy appetizers.
You should serve it well chilled.” ($24)

"The 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape’s dense ruby/purple color is followed
by a bouquet of charcoal, framboise, black raspberries, and a hint of spring
flowers. It is a rich, full-bodied, concentrated effort with silky tannins
and good acidity. Enjoy it over the next 12-15 years."

"From Chilean winemaker, Aurelio Montes, this 100% Cabernet shows
massively concentrated flavors of ripe blackberries and cassis, with richer
notes of dark chocolate, anise, spices and smoky cedar. What an amazing
tannin structure, intricate, fine and complex. A wine to drink now for sheer
opulence or to age for at least a dozen years." ($90)

"This blend of Pinotage, Cabernet, Merlot and Cabernet Franc is
full-bodied and complex, with layered aromas of cherry, banana and warming
spices, and smooth elegant flavors of cedar, cherry, tobacco smoke and red
berries. Velvety, soft tannins and a clean finish give it a classy touch.
This wine can age, but drink now and you won't be disappointed." ($15)

"A bright purple luster draws you in, and the nose is bright, clean,
focused and full of wild blackberry. Balanced in the mouth, with size and
tannin but plenty of acidity and fruit. Tastes of blackberry, vanilla cream,
molasses and spice, and the finish brings it on home. Sincere and excellent
for the price." ($14)
