2005 Quilceda Creek Red Wine Columbia ValleyRed Bordeaux Blend more |
9/25/2012 - FW&W wrote: 88 pointsBig 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. |

2006 Coeur de Terre Pinot Noir Renelle's BlockWillamette Valley more |
11/8/2010 - FW&W wrote: 93 pointsThere 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. |

2005 Nickel & Nickel Chardonnay Searby VineyardRussian River Valley more |
11/7/2010 - FW&W wrote: NRThe 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 PerruchesCabernet Franc more |
10/26/2010 - FW&W wrote: 92 pointsOn 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. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

11/27/2009 - FW&W wrote: 88 pointsNose: dusty, dark cherries, austere. The palate on this is remarkably similar to a big chianti. Cherry, olive, and spice. This has a great back bone and should be able to age for a wine longer. |

2006 Woodward Canyon MerlotColumbia Valley more |
8/14/2009 - FW&W wrote: 88 pointsYou can tell that this is a well made wine. The nose was pretty tight and you could smell some dark fruit and pencil. The wine is pretty complex and well integrated. Even after 1.5 hours it still wasn't opening up too much. This definately needs time in the cellar. |

2002 Kiona Syrah Red Mountainmore |
12/18/2008 - FW&W wrote: 93 pointsDecanted for 45 minutes and drank over the next 2 hours. There were tartaric crystals on the cork. Nose of black pepper, vanilla, and blueberry. The pallet still has fruit on it and the tannins have are well integrated. There is a slight cinnamon mid-pallet. The finish goes on and on. This wine is peaking, buy as many as you can now. |
