2005 Epicuro Salice Salentino (Riserva-DOC)
(2009-08-16 23:27:26 UTC) buddy icon 2005 Epicuro Salice Salentino (Riserva-DOC) 87/100

Raspberry and other berries on the nose, light vanilla. Sweet cherry like fruit in taste. A little initial sweetness yet well balanced.

Luscious fruit with a hint of dark chocolate. Tannic with a relatively dry finish and a hint of oak. There is definitely a delicious factor to this wine.

Relatively tight nose, some dark berry fruit, citrus and flowers. Decent mouth feel. Interesting flavors on the palate with a noticeable citrus and floral taste. Some dark berry fruit as well. Overall enjoyable.

2007 Cono Sur Carmenere

Interesting wine. I found his wine really opens up with a good amount of air time. An earthy, balanced wine with good mouth feel. Tobacco, red fruit, spice and oak flavors with a long lingering finish.

2008 Santa Rita 120 Sauvignon Blanc
(2008-08-28 01:13:20 UTC) buddy icon 2008 Santa Rita 120 Sauvignon Blanc 89/100

I was pretty surprised by this wine. Great peach and citrus nose. Pretty well balanced, decent acidity. Citrus flavors, hint of peach, slight mineral component, and tons of grapefruit on the finish. Good stuff.
