12/22/2009 - BarneyBuzz wrote: 89 pointsThe bottle is really unique, taller than most bottles. The initial nose gave me medicated black cherries notes. That medicinal nose blew off with time and it gave way to a fruity black berry and mulberry nose, lovely aroma. |

2006 Kaiken MalbecLujan de Cuyo more |
6/4/2009 - BarneyBuzz wrote: 88 pointsPopped and poured straight from the wine chiller, it was very smooth, with hints of vanilla. Tannins were soft and wine though simple was balanced. As the temperature went up, so did the alcoholic heat and taste of this wine, best served below 26c. Medium-light bodied wine that when well with my pasta of tomato based beef sauce. Great QPR wine. |

2002 Maison Kerlann Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les SuchotsPinot Noir more |
5/31/2009 - BarneyBuzz wrote: 89 pointsFunky barnyard nose, a little mushroom. Rich and elegant with good substance, pepper spice and nutmeg and capsicum and a sweetness to it that reminded me of sweet candied cherries. Good length with the right amount of acid. Disappointing for a Suchots for a vintage like 2002, expected more. |

2007 G7 Syrah ReservaLoncomilla Valley more |
5/22/2009 - BarneyBuzz wrote: 88 pointsVery Decent wine. Fresh fruity cherries with a hint of fresh leaves and earth on the nose. Medium- light bodied wine with soft tannins. More earth than fruit was found on the palate in contrast to the nose. A completely easy drinking wine for light meats. Finish was short but very enjoyable. This was a well-balanced wine, nothing felt out of place. Very good quaffing wine, had mine with a sirloin beef burger infused with cheese! |
