2009 Morlet Family Vineyards Pinot Noir En FamilleSonoma Coast more |
8/14/2011 - puterdewd wrote: 95 pointsA nicely structured pinot with plenty of body. Made the 07 Brewer Clifton next to it seem like a namby pamby wine. Perhaps could use a bit more time in the bottle. |

2004 Azienda Agricola Perazzeta Syrah Toscana IGTmore |
8/12/2011 - puterdewd wrote: 90 pointsI wasn't expecting much after the previous CT glowing recommendations but I gave it a go. I liked the fruit and the tannins were subdued. The finish was a bit of a disappointment Not that I'm a big Italian Syrah drinker, but it wasn't all that bad. I would easily drink another bottle. Of course I'm not as picky as Kevin and Jeff. |

7/11/2011 - puterdewd wrote: 90 pointsgreat nose, pretty good on the palate but not like liquid honey goodness going down your throat - more like liquid sugar badness. |

7/11/2011 - puterdewd wrote: 91 pointswas expecting so much more for the 04 especially considering how much i liked the baby pingus. everything was a little subdued. it did seem to open up a little but not enough to make me go wow. |

2008 Maybach Family Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon MateriumOakville more |
6/25/2011 - puterdewd wrote: 94 pointsThe more I drank this wine the more I liked it. Nice nose, good finish, but the complexity was surprising. Seemed like I was tasting a different berry with each drink. All in all a nice wine. Drinking a little early but with great potential. |

6/6/2011 - puterdewd wrote: 91 pointsComplex but overrun with alcohol. So much so that I could have been a fire breathing dragon. Overall disappointing. |

2003 Château Haut-BrionPessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend more |
6/5/2011 - puterdewd wrote: 93 pointsNice nose with a good leathery smell. Tannins were smooth, finish was good. Fruit a little subtle for my liking. Alcohol didn't overwhelm. Seemed to be drinking just fine for it's age. |

2006 Kistler Pinot Noir Cuvée Elizabeth Bodega HeadlandsSonoma Coast more |

2007 Domaine Pierre Usseglio & Fils Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée de mon AïeulGrenache more |
2/20/2011 - puterdewd wrote: 98 pointsI would be hard pressed to pick this as a CDP in a blind tasting. While still young this wine has tons of potential. The complexities and fruit all blend together to make a special wine. This should make you a big fan of new world. If you like the leather band-aid tastes then this wine is not for you. |

7/4/2010 - puterdewd wrote: 94 pointsThis has been the my fav of the 07 KB's so far. Not that it was outstanding, but it had nose, fruit, finish and balance. I actually enjoyed drinking this one. Finally an 07 KB that can hold it's own against Kistler. |
