4/23/2013 - ScottZuehlke Likes this wine: 92 pointsAmazing as usual! Just opened the bottle without a decant. I am planning on decanting the other bottles down the road but am feeling a bit lazy tonight. I bought a case of this from Rafanelli and will be storing a few of these for a couple years. Love this wine! |

1/8/2013 - ScottZuehlke Likes this wine: 91 pointsOpened this bottle for my 33rd birthday. Really enjoyed it overall. I think its getting close to its end so open now. Great smell with lots of berries. Decanted for about 2hours. Cork broke on me so be careful. |

1/13/2013 - ScottZuehlke Likes this wine: 91 pointsGreat as usual. By far one of my favorite red zin makers. I think it might be getting a bit old so drink up. I feel like this did not have as much spice as the 2010 does but still very good. |

2009 Seghesio Family Vineyards Zinfandel Sonoma Countymore |
11/29/2012 - ScottZuehlke Likes this wine: 90 pointsThis wine has some really great spice to it! Decanted before drinking. The taste is kind of short for me. Its almost a quick bite and then slowly goes back. Overall a good choice I think. Going to enjoy it with some Indian food. I'm guess I'm in a spicy mood tonight! |

2/8/2013 - ScottZuehlke Likes this wine: 90 pointsDrank during the blizzard of 2013 out East. I was in a hotel room and had to drink out of a paper cup but it was still yummy as usual. Good wine for the price I think. Very fruit forward and jammy. |

2006 Pride Mountain Vineyards MerlotNapa / Sonoma more |
11/30/2012 - ScottZuehlke wrote: 89 pointsIt was OK. I wanted to try this because I'm just starting my collection and Pride does a really great Merlot. I think I am done with Merlot and will stick with Cabs and Bordeaux's for my collection moving forward. Pride Cabernet is much better than their Merlot in my opinion which is not much. Much love Pride. |

11/28/2012 - ScottZuehlke Likes this wine: 89 pointsI'm new to Bordeaux and am really starting to enjoy them. This is a good medium price wine. I think its a bit young yet but I was up for exploring and wanted to get a feel for what I would like to start collecting. Bordeaux are officially on my list. |

2009 Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) Cabernet Sauvignon Los VascosColchagua Valley more |
12/27/2012 - ScottZuehlke Likes this wine: 89 pointsI did like this wine overall for the $18.00 value. I much more of a cali cab kind of person but thought I would give this a try. It tasted more like a red Zin to me. Lots of spice which I thought was weird for a Cabernet but I like a good Zin. If you don't like spice you will not like this wine. Overall I taste earthy, spice, leather, smoke, and oak. Short finish. |

2009 Heartland Cabernet SauvignonDalwood more |
12/21/2012 - ScottZuehlke Does not like this wine: 83 pointsThis wine taste really weird to me. It has a very weird taste at the beginning. The end is a bit better. You can taste the French oak which is kind of nice. I think I will stick with my Cali Cabs. They are hard to beat in my opinion. I would not buy this wine again. |
