2009 Damien Lorieux Bourgueil Cuvée GraviersCabernet Franc more |
4/13/2012 - kaptainreboot wrote: NRThis wine screams in a very soft voice that I am not fruit. I am vegital, I am minerality, but with more resolve than anything I AM TERROIR. This is my kind of wine in that it is not an in your face hit you over the head experience. It makes you think and just relax, absorb the serenity of simple complexity. Nice find. |

2009 Gervasi Vineyard Riesling PioveOhio more |
5/1/2010 - kaptainreboot Likes this wine: 85 pointsCrisp feel while retaining its fruit & floral nose & palette. Some sugars but not very sweet leaning more to a drier Riesling which I prefer. More of an illusion to the sweetness which I found pleasant. |

2007 Noble Vines Merlot 181 Lodimore |
5/24/2010 - kaptainreboot wrote: 81 pointsA typical unremarkable merlot. Drinkable but yet easily forgettable. Very one dimensional with very little nose. Maybe better with more cellar time. |

2007 Brazin Zinfandel Old Vine Lodimore |
4/9/2010 - kaptainreboot wrote: 84 pointsFound the alcohol a little overwhelming even after being decanted. Not a bad wine by any means but was thin & left the pallet quickly. |

8/5/2011 - kaptainreboot Does not like this wine: 80 pointsCan you say OAK? Not impressed at all. Flat on the pallet & very thin. No complexity at all. Overrated. Should have been a clue with the inconsistent tasting notes on CT. |
