My place

THE CLUB gathered at my place with Vytauras, Dhiraj, Pat, Matt, and me in attendance. We sat down with 6 masked bottles, and aimed to rate each one as well as to identify it as old or new world and guess the Bordeaux varietal.
The group correctly identified 5 of 6 as old world. We were less successful in getting the grape - we were unanimous in our opinion on the varietal of 3 pours - and correct on only 1.
2006 Ramey Cabernet Sauvignon Annum 92 Points
USA, California, Napa Valley
Dark Ruby color. Nose of cassis, which showed some maple with air. Palate with big ripe black fruit on a full body. Long finish set this apart from the other wines of the evening. Consensus WOTN.
