Back by popular demand, we invite you to view Part IV, the final part, of the Wine Challenge Video Series with our own Dave Sokolin and leading wine critic, James Suckling. James recently visited our premises, and in this video, he challenges Dave to show him three red wines under $40 that are 91 points or more.
Here at Sokolin, we pride ourselves not only on our vast inventory of fine back-vintage wines from top global regions, but also on our selection of wines that are inexpensive but still super-high quality. So we welcomed James' challenge.

Here's the rundown of the fourth challenge:
2010 Chasseur Sonoma County Pinot Noir - 89 points JS
"Big, rich Pinot in the classic California style. Fans of these will love Chasseur." - Dave Sokolin
What James said: "Juicy and tangy with lots of fruit and spices with lemon." - James Suckling
2007 Caparzo Brunello di Montalcino - 93 points JS
"One of the greatest straight up Brunellos I have ever tasted. At $32.99, it could be one of the greatest deals in the wine business!" - Dave Sokolin
What James said: "This is a beautiful wine from a top vintage?Fabulous." - James Suckling
2009 PSI - 93 points JS
"Made by Peter Sisseck of Pingus who makes Spain's most legendary wine, 2009 PSI is a fraction of the price and is perfectly balanced. Unfortunately, our allocation was small on this wine so it won't last!" - Dave Sokolin
What James said: "Very pretty tension and intensity to this. Gorgeous." - James Suckling
