2008 Black Kite Pinot Noir Kite's Rest
7/11/2012 - heartlandrv wrote: 92 Points
First time tasting anything from Black Kite and I was very impressed. I agree with the initial smoke notes, but it did blow over. Medium bodied, cherry and warm spices on the nose. Great mouth feel and long finish. In a very good place now but will easily last another several years in the cellar. Will look for more from these guys.

2006 Paraduxx (Duckhorn Vineyards) Proprietary Red

In a very good spot right now. Fine tannins still noticeable, but it did great paired with a grilled strip streak. The zin does not lead despite its proportion in the blend (which made me happy). Very well done.

2004 Vitanza Quadrimendo Toscana IGT

Much improved over previous bottle drank in September 2011. Paired nicely with grilled peach/mustard/bourbon BBQ glazed pork chop. Drank remainder of bottle the next night and it held up very well. Should drink well for several more years.
