11/14/2014 - Outplaying wrote: NRBurgundy Tasting with Daniel Haas, Vineyard Brands (State Line, Elkton, MD): Earthy, barnyard, rubber on the nose which I don't prefer. Dark in color. Earthy dark fruit on the palate. Funky. I don't really appreciate this style. I would be interested in trying this 15 years though. |

11/14/2014 - Outplaying wrote: NRBurgundy Tasting with Daniel Haas, Vineyard Brands (State Line, Elkton, MD): Fruity nose suggesting dark berries and spice. Tart, yet candied fruit, slightly earthy, fruity with spicy accents. Fine tannin. Pleasant but seemed confected. 86 |

11/14/2014 - Outplaying wrote: NRBurgundy Tasting with Daniel Haas, Vineyard Brands (State Line, Elkton, MD): A nice blast of mineral on the nose. Strangely, Ann said it reminded her of skunk at first but that she didn't mean it in a bad way. Tart fruit, both apple and citrus again, nice salinity, good acid, medium bodied. Complex with good intensity. Very good. 91 |

11/14/2014 - Outplaying wrote: NRBurgundy Tasting with Daniel Haas, Vineyard Brands (State Line, Elkton, MD): Richer and more oaky than the Matrot Bourgogne. Creamy, tart apple and pear, good acid. A hint of spearmint and slight salinity. Long finish. Ann said it was to oaky for her, but I enjoyed it, despite the fact that I typically don't enjoy this richer, more oaky style. 89-90 |

2007 Poggio il Castellare Brunello di MontalcinoSangiovese more |
11/10/2014 - Outplaying wrote: NRSlight bricking color. This is softer and silkier than I expected. Easy drinking with very fine tannin, pretty good acid. Dried red fruits, dried flowers, slight cola, slight orange rind, perhaps some dried mushroom. There is quite a bit of intensity and fruit but the wine still comes across as elegant. I think this will develop some more complexity, too. Pretty good and Ann liked it too. |

2011 Carlisle Syrah Steiner VineyardSonoma Mountain more |
11/9/2014 - Outplaying wrote: NRI like the cool 2011 vintage in CA, at least when it comes to Syrah and Pinot. This has been open for a day, under cork in the refrigerator. The wine still is a little cooler than it should be but there is good acid buffering slightly tart dark fruit, some olive, very light white pepper and maybe a touch of soy. Medium tannin. 14.1% alc. I wish I bought more than one as this pretty good today. Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comments (3) |

I don't sense the 15% alc but I can feel it. Ann and I are both sitting here with smiles on our faces. This wine just hit the spot for us tonight. |

2011 Alain Hudelot-Noëllat BourgognePinot Noir more |
10/31/2014 - Outplaying wrote: NRNot sure what to think of this wine. Pale, slightly translucent red color. Reticent nose with light fruit and spice. At first the wine is very acidic, almost effervescent. The wine is lean with light red fruits, light spice, earth and mineral. With air it loses the effervescent quality and puts on just a little weight. It is still very light and delicate though. The bottle has been open about two hours. We'll see what happens with more air. I'm glad Ann is not drinking this with me because I don't think there is a chance in hell she would like it. |

2009 Château Lilian LadouysSt. Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend more |
10/21/2014 - Outplaying wrote: NRAs others have said, this is modern styled, and even more so than I expected. Black fruits, plum, and chocolate. I thought brown sugar and faint toffee but Ann said light caramel. I see Chainthroer also noted mentioned that in his note. Light/medium tannin and decent acidity balance out the fruit. Pretty easy drinking now but I thnk it might be better down the road a few years. |

2000 Château de Beaucastel Châteauneuf-du-PapeRed Rhone Blend more |
10/19/2014 - Outplaying wrote: NRFrom a 3 liter. The wine was ecanted briefly before drinking around a fire pit. This was very tight and reserved, showing some crushed white pepper and some iodine. The fruit was a tart mix of red and black. Good acid and light tannin. I came back to this a couple times over an hour or two but it never really opened up. We had this wine about 18 months ago at a CdP themed dinner and that 750ml bottle showed more fruit, balance and complexity. I'm not sure if it was the large format bottle this time, the cool outdoor setting or bottle variation. |
