Creamy, rich slightly sweet wine featuring apple, pear, and peach fruit, but with a nice lift from the acidity that made for a nice balance. Really enjoyed this.

Featured mostly apple fruit in a fairly straightforward way with a medium level of acidity. No petrol notes, but some minerality on the finish. Less sweet than many Spatlese.

A little less sweet than other vintages of this I have had and lighter bodied and less intense. Very young at this point, and I think needs more age to show better. Drink your 01's and 03's (particularly) while waiting on this one.

Elegant, somewhat reserved fruit of dark cherry and currant. Only a hint of earth on the medium body frame with medium acidity. Long finish that has nice complexity and layers.

This did not come across as pinot to me (especially French), more so a light fruity Spanish rhone blend or a Beaujolais. Fruit forward, light body, medium acidity, mostly red fruit. A unique style that may appeal to some, but not one I found endearing.

Some bricking at the rim, a wonderful floral nose, with plenty of slightly tart cherry fruit that has a hint of sweetness on the long, complex finish. In a very good place right now that needs little decanting.

Was very tight when first tasted, but came back to it at the end of the evening (after 2+ hours of decanting) and it was drinking wonderfully. Dark cherry fruit, medium to high acidity and medium body that was nicely balanced after softening the tannins with decanting. A floral nose and finish that was very enjoyable. Excellent wine.

A liitle funk on the nose and the more reserved fruit (for KB) make this more pinot like for me, but is still made in a big, riper style that I do not favor.

Riper, fuller fruit than most Bordeaux typical of the 03 vintage with little earth. Got a little heat and sourness on the finish that lowered the score a bit. I have some of this and recall liking a little better at release.

Rich, thick texture, but still nimble on the palate with some nice earth on the finish. Not unlike a young powerful, but resolved, Bordeaux. Currant and blackberry fruit, full body with medium acidity. A very well balanced, but powerful wine that I really enjoyed.

Red fruit, bright acidity and still a bit young, but drank very well after getting an hour of air. Very nice Super Tuscan.

Only got a small sip thanks to JC and emilio sucking it down :-), but got some oak on the nose, with blackberry and currant fruit, on a medium to full body frame, and medium acidity. Was drinking very nicely later in the evening as it was tight when I tried a small sip when it was first passed around

I expected to like this more than I did. Red fruit driven, not as ripe or as big as expected, in a more reserved style. Very approachable as the tannins were smooth for being so young, not unusual for an 07 Napa cab. Just didn't have the panache and lushness I have come to expect from high end CA cab. Perhaps it has entered a dumb phase. I liked a 06 O'Shaughnessy Howell Mtn cab much better than this that I had two days before.

An herbal, eucalyptus note at the entry of this wine did not hit me well and was tough for me to warm up to this wine. Blackberry, currant, and plum fruit with a candied cherry finish. Full body and medium acidity. Certainly technically well made, just has a flavor profile that does not agree with me.
