2010 Hewitson Miss HarryBarossa Valley Red Rhone Blend more |
11/2/2014 - dsjutah Likes this wine: 90 pointsFor a value blend from Australia thi is one of my favorite go-to wines. Medium ruby color, dark fruit, earth and oak on the nose. I like to decant to let it open up, and it becomes very well-balanced. |

2010 Parkers Estate Zinfandel Dillon Springs RoadSonoma County more |
9/29/2014 - dsjutah Likes this wine: 85 pointsVery fruit forward. Paired well with a spicy lentil soup because not too high in alcohol. Not spectacular, but fine for a rainy Monday night after a long day. |

2013 Elk Cove Vineyards Pinot GrisWillamette Valley more |
9/16/2014 - dsjutah Likes this wine: 86 pointsZippy and acidic, with citrus and pineapple flavors. Nice mouthfeel, but a little thinner than some of my favorite Pinot Gris. Medium long finish, a nice pairing with fish or mild cheese. |

2011 Marchesi Vineyards Sangiovese EmmaWalla Walla Valley more |
9/17/2014 - dsjutah Likes this wine: 88 pointsA great classic Sangiovese - could pass for a legitimate Chianti (which I mean as a compliment). Dry, dark fruit undertones with many layers. Nice acidity and finish. |

2013 Chalk Hill Malbec Rosémore |
9/13/2014 - dsjutah Likes this wine: 89 pointsA lovely dry rose - perfect for a late summer garden party. Dry, not at all sweet, but with summer berry flavors and a clean finish. |

2010 Project PasoPaso Robles Red Blend more |
3/12/2014 - dsjutah Likes this wine: 89 pointsOnce I recovered from the odd closure (a "zork"?), greeted by a clear, dark ruby color. On the nose, oak, vanilla (from the oak), and big black, red fruits. Was uncertain how I would respond, frankly. But in my glass, slightly spicy (Syrah?), nice fruit and acid balance, tannins not as rough as anticipated - really softened and became even more lovely over time, moderate-long finish. Very drinkable, nice layers to the mix. Would definitely purchase again. |

3/5/2014 - dsjutah Likes this wine: 90 pointsA great little white blend. Light gold in color, full bodied fruit, great sensuous mouthfeel. No oak (good for me), nice balance, great finish. Lovely. |

2011 Joel Gott Sauvignon Blanc Californiamore |
3/3/2014 - dsjutah Likes this wine: 88 pointsFruit and acid in good balance, a little more off-dry than I anticipated. Really a great easy drinking Sauv Blanc with a nice qpr |

2/26/2014 - dsjutah Likes this wine: 88 pointsOn the nose, black fruit, smoke, mocha, some spice. Medium body, nice fruit and tannin balance, with a medium finish. Thinner mouthfeel than I remember. |

2012 English Estate Pinot Gris Gravel Mine VineyardWashington more |

2010 Trapiche Malbec Oak CaskMendoza more |
2/9/2014 - dsjutah wrote: 80 pointsDeep ruby color, a bit tannic, yet fruity (but not in an entirely pleasant way). A little disappointing for a Malbec. Perhaps I've had it too long? |

2011 Gran RojoSpain Tempranillo more |
2/4/2014 - dsjutah wrote: 86 pointsCrisp and reasonably well focused on the bouquet. In the mouth, rubbery and tannic feeling, with mild astringency and flavors of generic berry fruit, oak and herbs. Good for basic occasions. |
