We picked up a few boxes of domestic Madeira and we’ll be pouring it for you to taste all weekend.

 

Opici Vineyards, Madeira 3 Liter Box $15

Opici Madeira is a full, rich wine with an amber color and a hearty, ripe flavor. It is perfectly suited to creating demi-glace sauces and adds a burst of flavor to brown sauces, pork, and poultry gravy. But it also makes a tasting sipping wine while you cook or clean up the dishes. Keep it in the fridge and it will last quite a while. Was $30 Now $15

2017 Tahbilk, Old Vine Cabernet / Shiraz $18
Victoria, Australia
Rustic charm in spades. An old school red done right. Scents of dark berries and ripe plums, cassis, Aussie bush and old campfire. Lovely stuff. The palate is rich and think, shaped with grippy, dusty tannins and finishes very long and palate staining, with more lingering, dusty spice.
