4/16/2014 - RDemp7 Likes this wine: 92 pointsBig ripe fruit (black currant, blueberry) with very solid balance of fruit, acidity, and tannin. For a $15 bottle, I am highly impressed by the value this wine brings to the table. This will definitely be a repeat purchase. |

2009 Stoller Pinot Noir JV EstateDundee Hills more |
3/24/2014 - RDemp7 Likes this wine: 91 pointsBright red fruit, strawberry aromas. Good balance though I tasted a hint of trapped CO2 upon opening the bottle. It definitely settled down after being opened for a few hours. I really like this wine - not quite as much as the 2008 SV from Stoller - but a great effort! |

2010 Novelty Hill Winery MerlotColumbia Valley more |
3/17/2014 - RDemp7 wrote: 86 pointsVery pleasant nose with cranberry and red fruit. Unfortunately, the wine was quite unbalanced with high alcohol (almost 15% for a merlot!) dominating the blend, not allowing the fruit to show through. |

2006 Andrew Will Two Blondes VineyardYakima Valley Red Bordeaux Blend more |
3/4/2014 - RDemp7 wrote: 93 points- Ruby color and aromas of black currant. It's balanced and has flavours of black currant with a medium/full body. Polished texture with a long finish - Really enjoyed this blend! Great balance and a big finish. Ripe black fruit and hints of cranberry were the dominate aromas. I'd definitely purchase another bottle. |

2009 Gordon Estate Cabernet SauvignonColumbia Valley more |
2/21/2014 - RDemp7 Likes this wine: 91 pointsI'm a big fan of Columbia Valley cab, especially this one from Gordon Brothers. It's on the light side for a cab but fruit forward. Moderate, soft tannins with balanced acidity. For $19, it's a great value and has become a solid everyday drinker for me. |

2010 Barone Ricasoli Chianti Classico BrolioChianti Classico DOCG Sangiovese Blend, Sangiovese more |
2/17/2014 - RDemp7 Likes this wine: 87 pointsOverall, a very solid chianti classico. Medium bodied. Sour cherry and cranberry aromas. High acidity dominated the blend, which could've used more fruit. Because of this, I recommend drinking this wine with food only. |

1/5/2014 - RDemp7 Likes this wine: 90 pointsAfter letting this wine sit for nearly 45 minutes after opening the bottle, it had spicy red fruit aromas. I also got hints of bacon and leather in there. I was pleasantly surprised at how light and balanced the wine was with very soft tannins. Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

2011 Save Me, San Francisco Wine Co. Pinot Noir Soul SisterCalifornia more |
10/9/2013 - RDemp7 wrote: 82 points- Crimsom color with slow forming legs. It's overly acidic and has flavours of black currant and blackberry with a light/medium body. Leathery texture with a medium finish - More fruity and acidic than an Oregon Pinot Noir. First glass had cork in it. Black cherry aromas. |
