nicely balanced Chilean

CHARDONNAY VINA
PORTA $13.25 (CHILE)

Bir of a surprise, this.

Tried a glass at room temperature
with a slice of pizza and went back for
more instead of switching to red. Nice
balance, with solid but subtle fruit riding
atop the oak instead of being burled by
it, as some Chilean chardonnays are
wont to do.

Only sampled it because their caber-
net is a guilty seeret at $14 and chanue,
but CH be back for more.

‘Ton bad some of these wines are sut-
fering from “price creep” but “lite is too
short to drink cheap wine,” right?

(On the other hand, it’s alla bit ofa
game: the LDB raises its prices (wo per
cent across the board and, a month later,

wine agents lower their prices nwo per

employces, wine agents and bar managers
are all saved from that workshop in which
the Devil finds work for idle hands. }

LINDEMANS CAWARRA
SHIRAZ CABERNET 1996
$9.05 (AUSTRALIA)

This rakes me back to those nor so
long ago days when a Shiraz Cabernet
shake trom Downunder was your best
bang for under LO bucks, before the
restored vigor of the Dingodollar, bush-
fires and cenological hubris drove the
price of my favorite Jackaroo joy-juices
higher than the gum trees.

Shamelessly jammy and as forward as
a politician seeking re-election, the cork
is only there so you can show off your
prowess with a “tire-bouchon” before
getting down to cases. (Of which one or
two wouldn't go amiss for low-rent holi-
day merry-making.)
