2006 Château Montviel La RéservePomerol Red Bordeaux Blend more |
3/5/2018 - oog Likes this wine: 91 pointsCassis on the nose and almost some winter spices. Stewed berries on the palate and a little bit of menthol of the finish. Good structure. Could age longer. Ton of sediment though. |

10/24/2017 - oog Likes this wine: 91 pointsGreen notes and Burgundy like funk on the nose. A little bit of honey/honeysuckle as well. Taste - nicely balanced. Dry but a little bit of boisterous-like complexity. A little herbs and some butter. |

2013 Belle Glos Pinot Noir Clark & Telephone VineyardSanta Maria Valley more |
1/24/2016 - oog wrote: 87 pointsNose: Very ripe/fruity cherry. Taste: Wow -- blind I would never pick this as Pinot Noir (hell, even sighted, this wine doesnt look it like Pinot -- it's thick and dark); blueberry, and pushing off-dry in terms of sweetness/ripeness. |

2010 Iron Horse Vineyards Classic Vintage BrutGreen Valley of Russian River Valley Champagne Blend more |
7/12/2015 - oog wrote: 91 pointsNose: Lemon, flour. Taste: Bread and lemon/citrus notes with nice but not over-the-top acidity. I can get a little bit of a bitter peach note others have written about. Strong finish. Not the most subtle bubbles I've ever had... Overall this wine is well-made and just plain enjoyable to drink. |

2005 Montirius Gigondas Terres des AinésRed Rhone Blend more |
2/18/2015 - oog wrote: 90 pointsTannins have subsided since we last drank this wine. Much more raisin/prune on the front palate than before and heat has subsided greatly. A little raisin with some funk on the nose. I agree with the person below who said prunes and dry hay. Taste of raisin and current on the front palate. Some spice on the back. |

2011 Friedrich Becker Sonnenberg RieslingPfalz more |
1/5/2015 - oog wrote: 89 pointsNose: Petrol. Palate: Very dry, tart and almost bitter. Really long finish and nice body but not very complex. Some people might really like this given how bold the flavor is and how long the finish is but for my palate, I find it a bit one-dimensional. Can see where others think it is outstanding. |

2007 Domaine Monpertuis (Paul Jeune) Gard Cuvée Counoisemore |
11/18/2014 - oog Likes this wine: NRThin...seems a little past its prime. Stewed red fruit on the nose. Still primary on the palette, just lacking body for further age. Short, consistent finish. Drink up... |

9/8/2014 - oog wrote: 93 pointsNose: Lemongrass and a little bit of incense tea note. Taste: Lemony tang on the approach. Mid-palate and finish has a little bit of cooked white flower. Bubbles are soft, finish is good. Nice acid, nice body. One of the better Iron Horses. |

2000 Le Macchiole Paleo RossoBolgheri Superiore Red Bordeaux Blend more |
5/26/2014 - oog wrote: 91 pointsNose: still a little fruit but more like stewed fruit, almost tomato. Also stewed sweet fruit, and some secondary notes like leather. Some herbs as well. Nose: nice tartness. The leather makes it through onto the palate. Hint of unripe strawberries and stems. A little dusty. |

2/2/2014 - oog wrote: 93 pointsNose: Nice nose. Very primary. If I didn't know better, I would almost think this is a port or an Amarone. Very strong raisin notes. Taste: Still very tannic. Has a little bit of dried fruit notes, almost like a prune. There is also some leather. |

2007 Patrick Lesec Châteauneuf-du-Pape Les Galets BlondsRed Rhone Blend more |
11/11/2013 - oog wrote: 87 pointsNose: Big nose, very vegetal. Asparagus, stewed cranberry and herbal funk. Stewed apple sauce. Almost Burgundian on the nose. Taste: Bitter. Like rhubarb. Okay on the finish. Lasts long but it is not powerful. Somewhat disappointing. The wine has structure but it just doesn't taste very good on its own (may be better with food). Somewhat monotonous. |
