-Tr Elliot, Pinot Noir "Queste", Russian River Valley, 2006 (Very pure, elegant, and good. Just a touch too much alcohol for the elegance of the wine, but not off-putting)
-Schulz, Zinfandel, Mount Veeder, 2006
-Schulz, Syrah, Oak Knoll, 2006
-Schulz, Samuel's Cuvee, Napa, 2006

Great Burgundy's
These wines get a little confusing. They are all very good, none of them are bad, but they are very different that the wines that I'm accustomed to tasting. So there is a lot of nuance that my brain has trouble processing, but still understands that it is very good. The wines that I select to purchase are the wines that stand out as being the best, and as being the best values. They are a pleasure and delight to be able to taste.

-Domaine de Montille, Beaune, 1er Cru, "Les Sizies", 2006
-Domaine de Montille, Beaune, 1er Cru, "Les Greves", 2006
-Domaine de Montille, Nuits St. Georges, Les Saints Juliens, 2006 (Awesome, and great value)
-Domaine de Montille, Volnay, 1er Cru, "Les Mitans", 2006
-Domaine de Montille, Volnay, 1er Cru, "Les Champans", 2006 (Also awesome)
-Domaine de Montille, Beaune, 1er Cru, "Aigrots", 2006
