Assorted wines

In the interests of trying some new wines we followed an approach recommended by Eric Asimov and went to a local wine shop (Paul Ullrich) and asked the guy working there to pick out six interesting bottles for us. We asked for all reds and an average price of CHF 20. When we made the request, the guy's eyes lit up and he embarked on the quest with great enthusiasm. We clearly made him quite happy; hopefully he will have done the same for us. :-)

Here's what we ended up with:

1. Mauro Sebaste S. Rosalia 2005 Dolcetto D'Alba
2. Ruffino 2003 Riserva Ducale Chianti Classico
3. Juan Gil 2004 Jumilla (when we saw this bottle, we both smiled... we know this wine)
4. Quinta op Coa 2005 Douro
5. Ley Meysonniers 2005 Crozes-Hermitages
6. Domaine Sarda-Malet 2004 Reserve Cotes du Roussillon
