Tony Aspler’s Wine Pick of the Week: Châteaux La Croix de Queynac, 2009

This is a tasty claret at an even tastier price. Dense ruby colour; a nose of cedar, sweet red berry fruit; medium-bodied, nicely balanced, dry currant and blackberry flavours. Food match: lamb stew, veal and mushrooms.

$14.95, Vintages #138636
