2005 Cristom Syrah EstateEola - Amity Hills more |
1/15/2011 - GregDLyons wrote: 93 pointsThis was a very smooth wine right out of the bottle. It is at 14% alcohol which you could taste but it didn't detract from the fruit in this wine. Dark fruits on the front end, lots of white pepper on the back end. There wasn't a super long finish but it was a great wine all around. |

2008 Castello di Amorosa Gewürztraminer SimpaticaNapa Valley more |
1/9/2011 - GregDLyons wrote: 84 pointsThis was a very sweet wine. Slightly floral aroma with hints of rubber. Very light yellow color. It's hard to get past the sweetness as it is very overwhelming. We paired this with a dish that was supposed to be spicier than it turned out so the pairing was sub-par. This wine was purchased at the winery very late in a long day of wine tasting so it failed to impress (though our expectations were set accordingly low). |

12/13/2010 - GregDLyons wrote: 90 pointsFruit on the nose, rich but not intense, but you can tell it's higher alcohol (14.4%), opened up better after an hour. Blackberry and dark fruit on the nose. Medium body with dense color. Medium tannins, decent finish. |
