Jester by Mitolo 2004.
Cost $12-15??
It was rated 93 points at the Boston Food and Wine expo. Wines costing ten time more only got a 92. Buy by the case.

My tasting Notes.
Deep Purple Colour. The nose shows concentrated blackberry, plum and chocolate aromas with a subtle touch of French oak. The palate displays masses of rich black fruits and dark chocolate that combine with the sweet velvety tannins. Needed some air. Ripe and full bodied this well rounded wine has good structure, intensity and concentration of fruit which lead into a long generous finish. Outstanding Value.

Cellaring:
Drink now, or age reliably under cork for 5-7 years

Jerry, we had a wine over the weekend. Chardonnay...and for the life of me I can't remember the name. Micahel told the bartender he wanted a Chardonnay that tasted like "butter." It was one work, like Ross, Goss, Koss...have any idea?
