2005 Robert Mondavi Private Selection 2005 Vinetta
(2008-05-08 01:44:33 UTC) buddy icon 2005 Robert Mondavi Private Selection 2005 Vinetta 76/100

This wine starts out with a note of plum and then hits you strong with a bit of sour pearish taste finishing off with a tasty bit of cherry and smoke.

Smells of smoke and and toasted vanilla. Strawberries on the front, transitioning into a smooth plumb and blackberries, followed by a slightly bright toasted cherry finish. Overall a good wine.

Plum, Blackberries, Cherries, Spanish spice, rich with fruit until the very end, subtle and not too sweet.

Cherry, Strawberry up top with some vanilla and toastiness at the bottom. Very smooth. Light and enjoyable anytime. A really amazing finish that keeps me going back to the winery for more.

This wine is stellar. Certainly not your typical wine it is very very fruity, light, and aromatic. This wine sits well with absolutely anyone.

Be sure to try it with some French Vanilla ice cream and enjoy the taste explosion!

This wine is actually from Bloomington, Indiana, but for some reason Indiana is not listed in the choices for region. This wine is very light and fresh. It has flavors of strawberry and a big mild cherry along with a lightly toasted flavor. An excellent wine that goes down very smooth, smells great, and has fantastic finish.

A terrifically crisp wine full of lovely fruits from strawberries to light blackberries. A great buy from a great winery. This wine is grown and produced completely in bloomington, indiana.

2002 Ch. Ste. Michelle Canoe Ridge Estate Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

Unfortunatley I have tried this wine. It just wansn't for me. It is full of chocolate and very silky. I could not handle these flavors becuase they were just too forward and overwhelming, and to top it off they sit upon a strong undertone of leather. I might have made the mistake of not letting it sit in a cellar for years to come, but I really did not enjoy it.

Great tasting garanacha from Spain! This wine has an aroma of spice and berries. It starts off very smooth with kicks of red and blackberry finishes. Good swirling in the glass is recommended to really bring forth the wonderfully smooth blackberry finish!

A good pinot for the price. Smooth, easy to drink, with no suprises inside.
