2005 Havens Bourriquot
(2010-03-01 02:30:53 UTC)This is a phenomenally good bottle. I could just swirl and smell it all evening! Wish I had bought more than 2!
2001 Labastida Castillo Rioja Reserva
(2010-01-10 02:55:49 UTC)This is really nice. Very fruity, nice tannins, like silk. It's got some earthy/vegetal components too. I could drink this all night long!
2006 Neyers Zinfandel Pato Vineyard
(2010-01-04 00:52:09 UTC)This is a great zin. It's got some tobacco notes and lots of cherry/red fruit. It's really well balanced and easy to drink, and the fruit is not over the top at all. I am enjoying it! Highly recommended.
2009 Bodega Norton Malbec
(2010-01-02 20:32:55 UTC)Nothing special - loads of fruit and creamy vanilla. Totally drinkable but nothing I'm rushing out to buy again.
2006 Terra Di Vento Petrale Aglianico
(2009-12-29 03:25:50 UTC)oh, so drinkable. Delicious, food friendly, notes of cranberry & other red fruit. Gorgeous nose, great finish. YUM. Not as earthy as I might have hoped for, but so pleasant. Highly recommended.
2007 "Clone 5" Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
(2009-12-18 01:59:36 UTC)I enjoyed this more the second day than the first. It got rounder and fuller overnight, and the fruit got more balanced. New world and jammy for sure, in a delicious kind of way!
2007 Don Ramon Vino Tinto Barrica
(2009-12-12 03:41:34 UTC)Very fruity. Bright red fruits. Nothing overwhelmingly complicated about this wine. It's simple and straightforward. Maybe it'll evolve a bit overnight but for now it's perfectly pleasant. A bit on the oaky side.
2007 Regaleali Nero D'Avola
(2009-12-06 02:29:34 UTC)Pleasant but a little thin on the finish & mid-palate. Good strawberry notes up front and a pretty pleasant nose. Better after some aeration!
2006 Vina Zaco Tempranillo
(2009-12-02 03:07:12 UTC)Very nice. Bright red fruit, some good creaminess and a hint of funk, which makes this very interesting. Very good. Great wine to keep around!
2007 Sharpshooter Pinot Noir
(2009-11-13 22:44:21 UTC)Really nice. Bright red fruit, some notes of mint and a little bit earthy. Great pinot.
