-Rombauer, Chardonnay, Carneros, 2007
Heavily oaked. Movie-theatre butter, pineapplely, rich and uctuous. One dimensional. Very stylistic, but no sense of place or nuance.
-Leo Steen, Chenin Blanc, Saini Farms, Dry Creek, 2006
Lean and precise. Lovely and very refined. Excellent Chenin.
-Quinta dos Roques, Encruzado, Dao, Portugal, 2006
Lean but also possessing richness. Nutty, toasty and herbaceous. Really unique and interesting wine.
-Waterstone, Pinot Noir, Carneros, 2007
Very light and elegant in style, but delicious.
-Paro, Pinot Noir, Russian River, 2006
Possesses a lot of zestiness and youthful exhuberance. Enjoyable but will be best in 1 year.
-San Luigi, Chianti Classico, Italy, 2005
Barnyardy and classic example of the style. Good.
-Pro Corde, Vranac, Montenegro, 2005
Interesting little wine from Montenegro. Drinks like a inexpensive Bordeaux in terms of rusticness and cedary character. Very good.
-Esca, Syrah, Napa, 2004
This was the best the wine has ever tasted. It was just awesome. 2 days later it was reduced down and tasted stewed.
