Thursday, February 19th

-Valdicava, Brunello di Montalcino, Italy, 2003
This was a WS 98 pointer. While I loved it, I think that 98 points is a bit of a stretch. It seems to be in a bit of a closed phase. Hopefully it will begin to unfold in a few years.

-Fisher, Cab Sauv, Herb Lamb Vineyard, Napa, 1999
This was showing lovely at the moment. It was just appropriately aged with soft tannin and beautifully complex.

-Hill Family, Chardonnay, Napa, 2006
-Beckman, Le Bec Cuvee, Santa Ynez, 2006
-Gain Bay, Cabernet Family, Napa, 2006
-David Bruce, Petite Sirah, Central Coast, 2006
