7/20/2012 - Zo65 wrote: 85 pointsMinimal bouquet; silky smooth mouthfeel. Medium finish. Very Syrah dominant despite the numbers. Good; not great. Not overly impressed with Ty's wines......again. I succumbed to the Woot hype and have lots of this stuff. Hope it improves! 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

2/15/2011 - Zo65 wrote: 88 pointsAverage nose, pleasant mouthfeel, average finish. After all the Ty Caton hype, I must admit, I'm a little dissappointed. Maybe just too young? 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

2009 Cameron Hughes Zinfandel Lot 245North Coast more |
12/4/2011 - Zo65 wrote: 79 pointsWay too over-oaked and overly alcoholic. Difficult to taste any varietal character. Perhaps a bad bottle but cannot recommend. |

9/24/2011 - Zo65 wrote: 83 pointsMuted nose. Initially little mid-palate and limp tannins. Improved over several hours but still thoroughly unremarkable. By no means a "steal". |

2009 Maxwell Creek Cabernet Sauvignon ReserveNapa Valley more |
8/10/2012 - Zo65 wrote: 70 pointsPotentially one of the most poorly made Cabernets if have had the misfortune of tasting. Nothing but oak. Allowed to breathe for several hours but still awful. Rest went down the drain. Cannot recommend(no matter what Jonathan Newman says) |
