| 2005 Quilceda Creek Red Wine Columbia Valley (USA, Washington, Columbia Valley) | 9/25/2012 | FW&W | 88 |
Big massive body. Nose of dark fruit and tar. On the palate there was nice structure. Full mouth feel with a velvety texture. The flavor was not very expressive. Black berry, black tea and that was about it. A little disapointed. (2494 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2006 Eola Hills Wine Cellars Pinot Noir Oregon (USA, Oregon) | 5/8/2011 | FW&W | 88 |

| 2006 Coeur de Terre Pinot Noir Renelle's Block (USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley) | 11/8/2010 | FW&W | 93 |
There was dark fruit, cola and a subtle herb on the nose. The pallet was complex. I picked up nutmeg, moss, and cherry on one layer. Then there was some sort of cola, Dr pepper thing going on. Next there was some sweet soil, tobacco and mushroom. It has the depth and body of an Eola Hills, OR Pinot Noir, but nose and the gentile nuances from Dundee Hills. Overall, a terrific wine and probably my favorite of the evening. (2052 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2005 Nickel & Nickel Chardonnay Searby Vineyard (USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley) | 11/7/2010 | FW&W | |
The nose can be described by pear and cinnamon. It was very complex. The pallet was bright with acidity, vanilla, coconut, toasted marshmallow. While these tasting notes are dominated by characteristics that I traditionally do not like about California Chards because they are easily over done, this wine tastes like what all the other California Chards are trying to be. There was tremendous balance; a pleasing body, acidity, oak balance. And it was a great accent to the sea scallops, crimini mushroom sauce and parsnip puree.

| 2006 Béatrice et Pascal Lambert Chinon Les Perruches (France, Loire Valley, Touraine, Chinon) | 10/26/2010 | FW&W | 92 |
On the nose there was a beautiful raspberry fruit, bell pepper and a little bit of all spice. The palate was filled with raspberry, leather, candied blueberry and a fine tannin that wrapped my tongue for a long and lingering finish. I also had a little mouth feel of wet stone. As the wine opened the palate presented cinnamon cedar and cooked peaches. This was a dynamic and exciting wine. (3207 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2002 Kiona Syrah Red Mountain (USA, Washington, Columbia Valley, Red Mountain) | 10/24/2010 | FW&W | 89 |

| 2007 Xanadu Cellars "Grand Vin" Destiny Ridge Vineyards (USA, Washington, Columbia Valley, Horse Heaven Hills) | 8/27/2010 | FW&W | 87 |
The nose had vibrant fruit. Much more exciting than the 2006.

| 2006 Xanadu Cellars "Grand Vin" Destiny Ridge Vineyards (USA, Washington, Columbia Valley, Horse Heaven Hills) | 8/24/2010 | FW&W | 84 |
The nose was more austere than the 2007. Prune, earth and "the funk".
The palate was good, for this wine, especially after letting it decant for an hour. (1137 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
