2007 Pecorino Rocca Antica
(2009-04-05 00:33:36 UTC)Absolutely nothing stands out about this wine. Not so bad I slate it, but no redeeming qualities. Bland, uninteresting taste.
2006 Pucela Tempranillo Cabernet Sauvignon
(2009-04-04 23:46:04 UTC)This is not good. Basically, its sweet watery vinegar. Just about drinkable, but with no redeemable qualities. Enough said.
2007 Agustinos Cabernet Sauvignon
(2008-11-08 20:50:03 UTC)decant for a few hours at least. cinnamon and cardamoms, pepper and berries. not quite there yet though. average
2005 Novas Winemakers Selection Emiliana Syrah
(2008-11-08 20:14:06 UTC)Very average wine, nothing really stands out, disappointing.
2005 Francis Coppola 2005 Black Label Claret
(2008-08-02 22:08:15 UTC)Very berry, big and tasty. Love this cab sav, very drinkable right now, will develop a bit over a couple of years.
2006 Montgras Cabernet Sauvignon
(2008-07-20 21:01:39 UTC)Big, Bold Chilean red wine. Sweet candy nose with a hint of pepper. The taste are wonderfully sweet blackberries with a hint of strawberries and cream, good finish. I recommend this wine to drink on its own or with cheese.
2006 Le Bombarde Cannonau di Sardegna
(2008-07-18 21:13:52 UTC)I have to disagree completely with the previous reviewer, this is not very good wine at all. In summary - the color of this wine struck me as slightly odd, more florescent than it should be. It has an interesting nose - not very strong but not unpleasant. The aroma that comes through is a blend of liquorish and cough medicine. The taste however is really lacking - no real flavours shine through and the aftertaste is not pleasant at all. I do not recommend this.
2003 Il Barco Salice Salentino Riserva
(2008-07-17 19:17:34 UTC)Fairly pleasant drink, cant complain. Fairly sweet nose and taste. Strawberries and vanilla ice cream. The finish is not perfect, but overall not a bad drink.
2006 Huerta de Albalá Taberner
(2008-07-15 23:47:52 UTC)There is a lot to like about this wine. It has a very solid nose, striking strong cherry and vanilla nose. Very bold taste, strong fruit and excellent heavy berry flavors.
I really opened this early, it will keep very well, and I recommend opening it in 5 years time - it should be developing well by then.
2005 Robert Mondavi Woodbridge Cabernet Sauvignon
(2008-07-10 22:24:04 UTC)Unbalanced, can heavily taste the alcohol. It has a bitter aftertaste. cherry and tobacco nose, slight cherry taste. Terrible finish, avoid this wine.
