d'Arenberg 2003 Galvo Garage, Adelaide, Australia
This is a Bordeaux style blend of cabernet sauvignon,
merlot, cabernet franc, and petit verdot.
Bright flavors of plums, pomegranate, black licorice, fill the palate.
The mid-palate and finish offer a touch of smoked meats.
Intense and interesting, a tasty bottle for giving, sharing, or collecting.
-BF $27

Paringa 2004 Sparkling Shiraz, Australia
Leave it to the Aussies to make sparkling wine out of Shiraz.
Winemaker Dave Hickinbotham says "You should have it with bacon and eggs in the morning."
You're really in for a treat if you pair it with bacon from
http://www.gratefulpalate.com.
If you want to drink it later in the day,
I would suggest having it with fruit or chocolate cake.
It might make a great birthday gift for all those Sagittarians running around.
At first it tastes like an almond cookie, then it offers flavors of vanilla,
finally evolving into a carbonated black raspberry elixir.
Serious? Absolutely not! Tasty? Without a doubt.

Hardys NV Sparkling Shiraz, Australia
I'll have to admit, many of these sparkling reds started out a little rough.
This sparkling Shiraz is focused, polished, and very unique.
It is caramelly, with flavors of bing cherries.
Notes of dark chocolate fill the mid-palate.
The finish is a touch of toasted vanilla bean.
