| 2001 Schramsberg Vineyards Blanc de Blancs Late Disgorged 150th Anniversary (USA, California) | 3/30/2012 | joschott | 93 |
Popped and poured --- well chilled. Light straw color, nice stream of fine bubbles --- created a nice head.
Nose was slightly toasted, clean, balanced, fruity (apple) --- extremely clean finish. Nothing off.

| 2007 A to Z Wineworks Pinot Noir (USA, Oregon) | 5/8/2011 | joschott | 86 |
Slighter lighter in color than most Pino's that I drink. Earthy, berry, and cherry tones and slightly tart on the finish. (6650 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2006 Kosta Browne Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast (USA, California, Sonoma County, Sonoma Coast) | 3/10/2011 | joschott | 86 |
I Aerated to the glass and let sit about and hour before drinking. Smelled of a really bold pino (as I expect from a KB). The taste was slightly sweat (becoming softer and the end of the second glass). Not as good as other KBs that I've drank in the past. But still really good.
