2008 Dönnhoff Riesling

Nose of citrus fruit/lemons and stones. Strong acidity hits you but is in balance with the little sweetness and tastes of minerals and lemons. A very refreshing wine

2005 Loring Wine Company Pinot Noir Cargasacchi Vineyard

This wine needed a little time to open up but once it did it was a very nice expression of pinot. Nose started off with some funk/earthiness and some slight floral hints. After some extended air the funk blew off and there was a nice mix of spice, earthiness and the floral hints really came out. Taste of dark fruit - cherries/blackberries with spices and cola intermingled very nicely. There is a complexity to the wine that seemed to hint at good things for those that have waited. Nice bright acidity and a lingering finish. Really enjoyable at this point but I think this one will age nicely.

2006 Chateau Montelena Zinfandel The Montelena Estate

Nose of cherries, raspberries, pepper and a touch of vanilla. this nose evolved nicely throughout the night and by the end I was getting this baked blueberry/blackberry pie scent as it remained out. Jammy and full mouthfeel, more berries and vanilla, the oak is evident here but not overpowering and there is a nice medium finish to the wine. Very enjoyable and a great compliment to the filets on the grill.
