2004 Wellington Cabernet Sauvignon Sonoma County

mushrooms and green peppers. pretty soft - actually thought it was a bordeaux in a blind tasting. (had allowed it to decant for an hour in advance)

NV Mumm Napa Brut Rosé

nice mouthfeel, though too bubbly still. very very very easy drinker - some strawberry, some rose hips. only 2 of us and we finished the bottle over dinner in an hour. beautiful light pink color, translucent. not overly sweet, or with that random 'not-quite-red-but-not-quite-white' characteristic of alot of rose's in this price range ($15-20)
nowhere near as good as, say, the grande anee, but a decent bottle nonetheless. would get again, though more of an everyday drinker than for special occasion.

2003 Ty Caton Cabernet Sauvignon Caton Vineyard

another excellent wine by caton - great mouthfeel right off the bat. the tannins are well balanced, though the bottle opens up a bit tight. after only an hour open though (no decanting) the wine began to stoften quite a bit and became much more approachable. some strawberry, lightness in taste (after opening). some jam, blackcurrents with a rich, and lingering finish.
