2008 Colores Del Sol Malbec Reserva
(2009-07-15 01:37:22 UTC) buddy icon 2008 Colores Del Sol Malbec Reserva 90/100

Cherry, and blackberry, then heavy mocha and a light smoke on the mid and back palette.

2005 Concha Y Toro Xplorador Carmenere
(2009-01-07 01:55:26 UTC) buddy icon 2005 Concha Y Toro Xplorador Carmenere 87/100

Spicy dark cherries on the nose, with a little dirty funk. Almost like it has a little Cab Franc.
Black pepper, very ripe strawberries and cherries on the palette. Nice back palette. Very smooth for a S. American wine.

2005 Painter Bridge
(2008-11-08 02:39:01 UTC) buddy icon 2005 Painter Bridge 87/100

Very good wine for under $10. It has some dark tea components and dark cherry on the smell. The taste is similar, though I get a little bit of soy sauce towards the back. All in all, not bad.

2004 Egri Bikaver Bull's Blood
(2008-10-12 01:25:25 UTC) buddy icon 2004 Egri Bikaver Bull's Blood 85/100

V8 juice and prune juice on the nose. Pepper and ripe plums on the front end, with kind of a soy sauce finish.
And on the second day of opening, I get a lot of bacon on the middle.

What really surprised me was the bloody coppery color, very cool.

2005 Saumur Réserve des Vignerons
(2008-10-04 04:41:37 UTC) buddy icon 2005 Saumur Réserve des Vignerons 91/100

Smells of moldy hay, horse dung, overripe strawberries, black plum.
It tastes like strawberry wine and plum juice with some spinach.
